I'm pretty new to React Native, but I'm trying to add a png as a background image using the ImageBackground component. I have the png in an "assets" folder in my project directory. When I run the app with Expo on my iPhone, I get this error:
TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating 'asset.scales')
This is my code:
import React, {useState, Component} from 'react';
import {StyleSheet, Text, View, TextInput, TouchableOpacity, Image} from 'react-native';
import * as Font from "expo-font";
import {ImageBackground} from "react-native-web";
class LoginPage extends Component {
state = {
fontLoaded: false,
};
async componentDidMount() {
await Font.loadAsync({
'Veles-Regular' : require("./assets/fonts/Veles-Regular.otf"),
});
console.log('HI');
this.setState({fontLoaded: true});
}
render() {
return (
<ImageBackground source={require('./assets/login_splash.png')} style={{width: 100, height: 100}}>
<View style={styles.loginScreen}>
<View style={{flex: 1, justifyContent: 'center'}}>
{
this.state.fontLoaded ? (
<Text style={{fontSize: 60, color: 'white', fontFamily: 'Veles-Regular'}}>App Name</Text>
) : null
}
</View>
<View style={{flex: 1, justifyContent: 'center', alignItems: 'center', width: '85%'}}>
<TextInput style={[styles.loginInput, {marginBottom: 5}]} placeholder=' username'
placeholderTextColor={'rgba(255,255,255,0.3)'} textAlign='center'/>
<TextInput style={[styles.loginInput, {marginTop: 5, marginBottom: 5}]} placeholder=' password'
placeholderTextColor={'rgba(255,255,255,0.3)'} textAlign='center'/>
<View style={{height: 15}}/>
<TouchableOpacity onPress={() => {
}}>
<Text style={{color: 'white', fontWeight: 'bold', fontSize: 24}}>Log in</Text>
</TouchableOpacity>
</View>
<View style={{flex: 2, justifyContent: 'center'}}>
<View style={{flex: 9}}/>
<Text style={{flex: 1, fontSize: 24, color: 'white', textAlign: 'center'}}>Don't have an
account?</Text>
<TouchableOpacity style={{color: 'white', fontWeight: 'bold', fontSize: 24}}>
<Text style={{color: 'white', fontWeight: 'bold', fontSize: 24, textAlign: 'center'}}>Sign
Up</Text>
</TouchableOpacity>
<View style={{height: 30}}/>
</View>
</View>
</ImageBackground>
);
}
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
loginScreen: {
flex: 1,
paddingTop: 50,
alignItems: 'center',
justifyContent: 'center',
},
loginInput: {
width: '100%',
backgroundColor: 'rgb(40,40,40)',
height: 44,
fontSize: 24,
color: 'white',
borderWidth: 1,
borderColor: 'rgb(60,60,60)',
borderRadius: 25
},
});
export default LoginPage;
