Programmatically add a component in React Native

Question

Suppose I have a simple React Native app like so:

\'use strict\';

var React = require(\'react-native\');
var {
  AppRegistry,
  Text,
  TouchableHighlight,
         


        

Answer 1

Try creating an array and attaching it to the state. You can then push items to the array, and reset the state.

'use strict';

var React = require('react-native');
var {
  AppRegistry,
  StyleSheet,
  Text,
  View,
  TouchableHighlight
} = React;

var index = 0

var SampleApp = React.createClass({

  getInitialState(){
    return { myArr: [] }
  },

  _onPressOut() {
    let temp = index ++
    this.state.myArr.push(temp)
    this.setState({
        myArr: this.state.myArr
    })
  },

  render() {

    let Arr = this.state.myArr.map((a, i) => {
      return { a }                            
    })    
    return (
      
        First
        { Arr }
        Second
         this._onPressOut() }>
            Push
        
      
    );
  }
});

var styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {
    flex: 1,
    marginTop:60
  },
  button: {
    height:60,
    backgroundColor: '#ededed',
    marginTop:10,
    justifyContent: 'center',
    alignItems: 'center'
  }
});

AppRegistry.registerComponent('SampleApp', () => SampleApp);

I've set up a working example here.
