Here's an example of how to use the hooks to navigate between pages and handle navigation events.

`jsx
import React, { useRef } from 'react';
import { View, Text, Button, StyleSheet } from 'react-native';
import PagerView from 'react-native-pager-view';
import {
useInitializePagerNavigation,
usePagerNavigationMethods,
} from 'react-native-pager-view-navigator';
const App = () => {
const pagerRef = useRef(null);
// Initialize pager navigation
const initialized = useInitializePagerNavigation(pagerRef, 0);
// Access pager navigation methods
const { navigate, goBack } = usePagerNavigationMethods(pagerRef);
if (!initialized) {
return null; // Show a loading indicator or fallback UI if initialization fails
}
return (
Page 1
Page 2
Page 3
);
};
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flex: 1,
},
pagerView: {
flex: 1,
},
page: {
justifyContent: 'center',
alignItems: 'center',
backgroundColor: '#f5f5f5',
},
text: {
fontSize: 18,
fontWeight: 'bold',
},
buttonContainer: {
flexDirection: 'row',
justifyContent: 'space-around',
margin: 16,
},
});
export default App;

1. Initialization:
const initialized = useInitializePagerNavigation(pagerRef, 0);
Ensures that the pager is initialized correctly with the starting page.
2. Navigation Methods:
const { navigate, goBack } = usePagerNavigationMethods(pagerRef);
Provides methods for navigating to a specific page (navigate) and going back to the previous page (goBack`).
