With DOM, you can easily create a trigger custom event with Javascript like so:

var event = new Event('build');

// Listen for the event.
elem.addEventListener('build', function (e) { /* ... */ }, false);

// Dispatch the event.
elem.dispatchEvent(event);

Is there a way to do that with React-Native?

• 4 You could try this library. It might help. – Christopher Bradshaw Commented Sep 25, 2018 at 15:51
• What are you trying to achieve with the events? – JRK Commented Sep 25, 2018 at 16:19
• thanks for your suggestion I will try it and let you know @ChristopherBradshaw – Monero Jeanniton Commented Sep 25, 2018 at 16:54
• @JRK I have create a wrapper for AsynchStorage called deviceStorage where, in my dictionary application, user can add word to favorite list/array saved in the deviceStorage with a specific key. I want to know whenever a new word as been added to the favorites list so I can reflect this update to the home which is actually previous screen of the application. ponentDidMount won't work since the home page has already been mounted (still in screen stack). PS: the screen where you actually add a new word in favorite list, is pushed from the home screen. Won't mind sharing u code. Thx – Monero Jeanniton Commented Sep 25, 2018 at 17:07

React Native provides NativeEventEmitter for handling custom events.

import { NativeEventEmitter } from 'react-native';
const eventEmitter = new NativeEventEmitter();

eventEmitter.emit('custom-event', { data: 'test' });

eventEmitter.addListener('custom-event', event => {
  console.log(event); // { data: 'test' }
});

There are actually two solutions for my case:

1. https://reactnavigation/docs/en/function-after-focusing-screen.html
   Use react-navigation to know when the ponent/screen has received focus and trigger an action with a 'didFocus' event listener:

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { View } from 'react-native';
import { withNavigation } from 'react-navigation';

class TabScreen extends Component {
  ponentDidMount() {
    const { navigation } = this.props;
    this.focusListener = navigation.addListener('didFocus', () => {
      // The screen is focused
      // Call any action
    });
  }

  ponentWillUnmount() {
    // Remove the event listener
    this.focusListener.remove();
  }

  render() {
    return <View />;
  }
}

export default withNavigation(TabScreen);

2. https://redux.js/basics/example
   Use Redux as one global state container for your application.
