javascript - Passing Data Using React-Native Navigation

Question

Im trying to pass data between screens in my app. Currently I am using

---

"react-native": "0.46.0",
"react-navigation": "^1.0.0-beta.11"

I have my index.js

---

 import React, { Component } from 'react';
    import {
      AppRegistry,
    } from 'react-native';
    import App from './src/App'
    import { StackNavigator } from 'react-navigation';
    import SecondScreen from './src/SecondScreen'    

    class med extends Component {
      static navigationOptions = {
        title: 'Home Screen',
      };

      render(){
        const { navigation } = this.props;

        return (
          <App navigation={ navigation }/>
        );
      }
    }

    const SimpleApp = StackNavigator({
      Home: { screen: med },
      SecondScreen: { screen: SecondScreen, title: 'ss' },    
    });

    AppRegistry.registerComponent('med', () => SimpleApp);

app as

    import React, { Component } from 'react';
    import {
      StyleSheet,
      Text,
      Button,
      View
    } from 'react-native';
    import { StackNavigator } from 'react-navigation';

    const App = (props)  => {
      const { navigate } = props.navigation;

      return (
        <View>
          <Text>
            Welcome to React Native Navigation Sample!
          </Text>
          <Button
              onPress={() => navigate('SecondScreen', { user: 'Lucy' })}
              title="Go to Second Screen"
            />
        </View>
      );
    }

    export default App

then in the secondscreen.js where we will fetch the data which passed from the previous screen as

---

    import React, { Component } from 'react';
    import {
      StyleSheet,
      Text,
      View,
      Button
    } from 'react-native';

    import { StackNavigator } from 'react-navigation';


    const SecondScreen = (props)  => {
      const { state} = props.navigation;
      console.log("PROPS" + state.params);


      return (
        <View>
          <Text>
            HI
          </Text>

        </View>
      );
    }

    SecondScreen.navigationOptions = {
      title: 'Second Screen Title',
    };

    export default SecondScreen

Whenever I console.log I get undefined.
https://reactnavigation.org/docs/navigators/navigation-prop The docs say every screen should have these values what am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

In your code, props.navigation and this.props.navigation.state are two different things. You should try this in your second screen:

const {state} = props.navigation;
console.log("PROPS " + state.params.user);

the const {state} line is only here to get an easy to read code.
