[ART] Art and Pattern w/ Images

Just saw that Pattern hasn’t been add yet in the react-native art implementation.

else if (type === PATTERN) {
    // todo
  }

Any idea when this will be added, would love to take advantage of it.

Or any other recommendations on how to render an Image to the Surface

Just stumbled across the same issue… nearly a year later:) Had a quick look/play and it looks like the Pattern implementation in ARTPattern.m is wired up to display an image using _image = CGImageRetain([RCTConvert CGImage:array[1]]); ;, but it just receives a string from the fill pattern prop of the image location entered in JS so can’t actually create an image… also note it looks like react packager doesn’t pick up the image location and bundle it… so i think to get the image displaying will need to look into what Image does to bundle an image and then change it into a filepath native can load… Im a long way from an expert in this part but will try and find some time to look into and submit a PR.

However… . you can get an image in a surface now in a way that will work with web react-art and reactARTNative by using a Data URI instead of a url… just add something along the lines of the below and you’ll get your fill pattern in native…

@browniefed Hit me up if you work on some React ART documentation, I’d be glad to help. I’ve been using it too and finding the lack of documentation frustrating.
