withNavigation

withNavigation is a higher order component which passes the navigation prop into a wrapped component. It's useful when you cannot pass the navigation prop into the component directly, or don't want to pass it in case of a deeply nested child.

• withNavigation(Component) returns a Component.

Example

import React from 'react';
import { Button } 'react-native';
import { withNavigation } from 'react-navigation';

class MyBackButton extends React.Component {
  render() {
    return <Button title="Back" onPress={() => { this.props.navigation.goBack() }} />;
  }
}

// withNavigation returns a component that wraps MyBackButton and passes in the
// navigation prop
export default withNavigation(MyBackButton);
