@json-render/react-native

React Native renderer that converts JSON specs into native mobile component trees with standard components, data binding, visibility, actions, and dynamic props.

Quick Start

import { defineCatalog } from "@json-render/core";
import { schema } from "@json-render/react-native/schema";
import {
  standardComponentDefinitions,
  standardActionDefinitions,
} from "@json-render/react-native/catalog";
import { defineRegistry, Renderer, type Components } from "@json-render/react-native";
import { z } from "zod";

// Create catalog with standard + custom components
const catalog = defineCatalog(schema, {
  components: {
    ...standardComponentDefinitions,
    Icon: {
      props: z.object({ name: z.string(), size: z.number().nullable(), color: z.string().nullable() }),
      slots: [],
      description: "Icon display",
    },
  },
  actions: standardActionDefinitions,
});

// Register only custom components (standard ones are built-in)
const { registry } = defineRegistry(catalog, {
  components: {
    Icon: ({ props }) => <Ionicons name={props.name} size={props.size ?? 24} />,
  } as Components<typeof catalog>,
});

// Render
function App({ spec }) {
  return (
    <StateProvider initialState={{}}>
      <VisibilityProvider>
        <ActionProvider handlers={{}}>
          <Renderer spec={spec} registry={registry} />
        </ActionProvider>
      </VisibilityProvider>
    </StateProvider>
  );
}
