If you are installing this in an existing React Native app, make sure to install expo in your project.

用法

非受控文本输入框

将一个 useNativeState 可观察对象绑定到 text。该输入框会自行跟踪用户输入,你可以从 textState.value 读取当前值。

BasicTextFieldExample.tsx
import { Host, TextField, useNativeState } from '@expo/ui/swift-ui'; export default function BasicTextFieldExample() { const textState = useNativeState(''); // A text field stretches to the width it is given, so give the host a size. return ( <Host style={{ flex: 1 }}> <TextField placeholder="Username" text={textState} /> </Host> ); }

受控文本输入框

传入一个 onTextChange worklet 来转换或验证输入,并将结果写回 useNativeState 可观察状态。下面的示例会在输入时将文本转换为大写。

ControlledTextFieldExample.tsx
import { Host, TextField, useNativeState } from '@expo/ui/swift-ui'; import { useCallback } from 'react'; export default function ControlledTextFieldExample() { const text = useNativeState(''); const handleTextChange = useCallback( (value: string) => { 'worklet'; text.value = value.toUpperCase(); }, [text] ); return ( <Host style={{ flex: 1 }}> <TextField placeholder="Name" text={text} onTextChange={handleTextChange} /> </Host> ); }

多行文本输入框

设置 axis="vertical" 以允许文本输入框垂直扩展。使用 lineLimit modifier 控制可见行数。为 Host 指定明确的尺寸,使输入框拥有可供扩展的宽度。

MultilineTextFieldExample.tsx
import { Host, TextField, useNativeState } from '@expo/ui/swift-ui'; import { lineLimit, fixedSize } from '@expo/ui/swift-ui/modifiers'; export default function MultilineTextFieldExample() { const textState = useNativeState(''); return ( <Host style={{ flex: 1 }}> <TextField axis="vertical" text={textState} placeholder="Tell us about yourself..." modifiers={[ lineLimit(5), fixedSize({ horizontal: false, vertical: true }), ]} /> </Host> ); }

键盘类型

使用 keyboardType modifier 显示特定的键盘布局。

KeyboardTypeExample.tsx
import { Host, TextField, useNativeState } from '@expo/ui/swift-ui'; import { keyboardType, autocorrectionDisabled, } from '@expo/ui/swift-ui/modifiers'; export default function KeyboardTypeExample() { const textState = useNativeState(''); return ( <Host style={{ flex: 1 }}> <TextField placeholder="Email" text={textState} modifiers={[ keyboardType('email-address'), autocorrectionDisabled(), ]} /> </Host> ); }

提交处理

使用 submitLabel modifier 自定义回车键,并使用 onSubmit 处理提交操作。

SubmitHandlingExample.tsx
import { Host, TextField, useNativeState } from '@expo/ui/swift-ui'; import { submitLabel, onSubmit } from '@expo/ui/swift-ui/modifiers'; export default function SubmitHandlingExample() { const textState = useNativeState(''); return ( <Host style={{ flex: 1 }}> <TextField placeholder="Search..." text={textState} modifiers={[ submitLabel('search'), onSubmit(() => console.log('Submitted:', textState.value) ), ]} /> </Host> ); }

命令式 ref

使用 ref 以命令式方式设置文本、聚焦、失焦或选择文本。

ImperativeRefExample.tsx
import { useRef } from 'react'; import { Host, TextField, TextFieldRef, Button, HStack, VStack, useNativeState, } from '@expo/ui/swift-ui'; import { buttonStyle } from '@expo/ui/swift-ui/modifiers'; export default function ImperativeRefExample() { const ref = useRef<TextFieldRef>(null); const textState = useNativeState('选择我!'); return ( <Host style={{ flex: 1 }}> <VStack spacing={12}> <TextField ref={ref} text={textState} placeholder="Imperative field" /> <HStack spacing={12}> <Button modifiers={[buttonStyle('bordered')]} onPress={() => ref.current?.focus()} label="聚焦" /> <Button modifiers={[buttonStyle('bordered')]} onPress={() => ref.current?.blur()} label="失焦" /> </HStack> <HStack spacing={12}> <Button modifiers={[buttonStyle('bordered')]} onPress={() => ref.current?.setText('SwiftUI 很棒!')} label="设置文本" /> <Button modifiers={[buttonStyle('bordered')]} onPress={() => ref.current?.clear()} label="清除" /> <Button modifiers={[buttonStyle('bordered')]} onPress={() => ref.current?.setSelection(0, 7)} label="选择" /> </HStack> </VStack> </Host> ); }

Worklet 文本遮罩

当 onTextChange 标记了 'worklet' 指令时,它会在 UI 线程上同步运行,因此回调内对 useNativeState 可观察对象的写入会在下一帧之前生效。键入文本与遮罩后的文本之间不会出现闪烁。下面的示例会在用户输入时对电话号码进行遮罩,并从 worklet 中同时写入 text 和 selection,以保持光标位于格式化后值的末尾。

WorkletPhoneMaskExample.tsx
import { Host, TextField, useNativeState } from '@expo/ui/swift-ui'; import { keyboardType } from '@expo/ui/swift-ui/modifiers'; import { useEffectEvent } from 'react'; export default function WorkletPhoneMaskExample() { const phone = useNativeState(''); const selection = useNativeState({ start: 0, end: 0 }); const handleTextChange = useEffectEvent((v: string) => { 'worklet'; const digits = v.replace(/\D/g, '').slice(0, 10); let formatted = digits; if (digits.length > 6) { formatted = `(${digits.slice(0, 3)}) ${digits.slice(3, 6)}-${digits.slice(6)}`; } else if (digits.length > 3) { formatted = `(${digits.slice(0, 3)}) ${digits.slice(3)}`; } if (formatted !== v) { phone.value = formatted; // Snaps to end for demo. Real masks need smarter cursor handling. selection.value = { start: formatted.length, end: formatted.length, }; } }); return ( <Host style={{ flex: 1 }}> <TextField text={phone} selection={selection} placeholder="(555) 123-4567" modifiers={[keyboardType('phone-pad')]} onTextChange={handleTextChange} /> </Host> ); }

API

import { TextField } from '@expo/ui/swift-ui';

Component

TextField

iOS
tvOS

Type: React.Element<TextFieldProps>

Renders a SwiftUI TextField.

TextFieldProps

autoFocus

iOS
tvOS
Optional • Type: boolean • Default: false

If true, the text field will be focused automatically when mounted.

axis

iOS
tvOS
Optional • Literal type: string • Default: 'horizontal'

The axis along which the text field grows when content exceeds a single line.

  • 'horizontal' — single line (default).
  • 'vertical' — expands vertically for multiline content. Use lineLimit modifier to cap visible lines.

Acceptable values are: 'vertical' | 'horizontal'

children

iOS
tvOS
Optional • Type: ReactNode

Slot children — supports <TextField.Placeholder> with a <Text> child (any text-styling modifiers on that Text are preserved as the placeholder's styling).

maxLength

iOS
tvOS
Optional • Type: number

Maximum number of characters allowed. Truncates natively as the user types.

onFocusChange

iOS
tvOS
Optional • Type: (focused: boolean) => void

A callback triggered when the field gains or loses focus.

onSelectionChange

iOS 18.0+ tvos 18.0+
Optional • Type: (selection: { end: number, start: number }) => void

A callback triggered when the text selection range changes.

onTextChange

iOS
tvOS
Optional • Type: (text: string) => void

A callback triggered when the text value changes.

If the callback is marked with the 'worklet' directive, it runs synchronously on the UI thread; otherwise it is delivered asynchronously as a regular JS event.

placeholder

iOS
tvOS
Optional • Type: string

A text that is displayed when the field is empty.

ref

iOS
tvOS
Optional • Type: Ref<TextFieldRef>

selection

iOS 18.0+ tvos 18.0+
Optional • Type: ObservableState<TextFieldSelection>

Observable state the field writes the current selection to. Create with useNativeState<TextFieldSelection>({ start: 0, end: 0 }). Use ref.setSelection(start, end) to set programmatically.

text

iOS
tvOS
Optional • Type: ObservableState<string>

An observable state that holds the current text. Create one with useNativeState('') or useNativeState('initial value'). If omitted, the field manages its own internal state.

Types

ObservableState

iOS
tvOS

Observable state shared between JavaScript and native views (Jetpack Compose on Android and SwiftUI on iOS).

Type: SharedObject extended by:

PropertyTypeDescription
onChange[listener] | null

A single listener invoked on the native UI runtime whenever the value changes (after iOS didSet and Android's setter). Assigning replaces the previous listener; assign null to clear. The initial value does not fire onChange.

The callback must be a worklet so it can run synchronously on the UI thread. Attach it inside useEffect and clear it in the cleanup so the listener lifecycle matches the component lifecycle.

Example

const state = useNativeState(0); useEffect(() => { state.onChange = (value) => { 'worklet'; console.log('changed to', value); }; }, []);
valueT

The current value.

Writes from a UI worklet are synchronous and immediately readable. Writes from the JS thread are scheduled to the UI thread asynchronously, the new value is not readable until the update has been applied. Prefer writing from a worklet when you need synchronous updates

get() => T

Reads the current value. A React Compiler compliant alternative to reading .value

set(value: T) => void

Writes a new value. A React Compiler-compliant alternative to assigning .value

TextFieldRef

iOS
tvOS

Can be used for imperatively focusing and setting text/selection on the TextField component.

TextFieldSelection

iOS
tvOS

Selection range — start and end are character offsets into the field's text.
