What’s the best way to add a full screen background image in React Native

(This has been deprecated now you can use ImageBackground)

This is how I’ve done it. The main deal was getting rid of the static fixed sizes.

class ReactStrap extends React.Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <Image source={require('image!background')} style={styles.container}>
        ... Your Content ...
      </Image>
    );
  }
}

var styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {
    flex: 1,
    // remove width and height to override fixed static size
    width: null,
    height: null,
  }
};
