React touch screen keyboard
npm install react-touch-screen-keyboard
![npm]()
This library will render a draggable virtual keyboard on the bottom of the screen when the input is selected. The usage is very simple - instead of using the input tag, use the KeyboardedInput tag from the library. You can control the input's value via the callback function you give to its props.
Currently supported keyboards: us, de, ru, fr
Installing via npm
```
npm install react-touch-screen-keyboard
Installing via npm (React v15)

npm install react-touch-screen-keyboard@0.3.15
`js
import React from 'react';
import KeyboardedInput from 'react-touch-screen-keyboard';
import 'react-touch-screen-keyboard/lib/Keyboard.css'; // if you just want css
import 'react-touch-screen-keyboard/lib/Keyboard.scss'; // if you've got sass-loader

#### Use Custom Keyboard
You can pass a Nx3 sized array into defaultKeyboard prop to render a customize layout.
You can place functional keys using the following placeholders:
| Placeholder | Key |
|---|---|
| *sh | Shift |
| *bs | Backspace |
`js
import React from 'react';
import KeyboardedInput from 'react-touch-screen-keyboard';
import 'react-touch-screen-keyboard/lib/Keyboard.css';
class Input extends React.Component {
render() {
const CustomMapping = [
['q', 'w', 'e', 'r', 't', 'y', 'u', 'i', 'o', 'p'],
['a', 's', 'd', 'f', 'g', 'h', 'j', 'k', 'l', '@'],
['z', 'x', 'c', 'v', 'b', 'n', 'm', '.com']
];
return (
type={this.props.type}
value={this.props.value}
name={this.props.name}
defaultKeyboard={CustomMapping}
/>
);
}
}
export default Input;
`
#### Managing focus programmatically
The focus() function can be used to set the focus on the input field and show the keyboard. You can access the component via its ref.
For example, to focus the input field when clicking on a button, first set the ref:
`jsx`
...
Then call the focus() function in the click handler of a button:
`jsx
``
See the examples for a more complete sample.
