KeyboardController

KeyboardController is an object which has two functions:

• setInputMode - used to change windowSoftInputMode in runtime;
• setDefaultMode - used to restore default windowSoftInputMode (which is declared in AndroidManifest.xml);

Understanding how different modes works

To understand the difference between adjustResize/adjustPan/adjustNothing behavior you can look into this post.

info

A combination of adjustResize + edge-to-edge mode will result in behavior similar to adjustNothing - in this case window is not resized automatically and content is not moved along with the keyboard position. And it becomes a responsibility of developer to handle keyboard appearance (thus it'll match iOS behavior).

Example

import {
  KeyboardController,
  AndroidSoftInputModes,
} from "react-native-keyboard-controller";

export const useResizeMode = () => {
  useEffect(() => {
    KeyboardController.setInputMode(
      AndroidSoftInputModes.SOFT_INPUT_ADJUST_RESIZE,
    );

    return () => KeyboardController.setDefaultMode();
  }, []);
};
