Draw horizontal rule in React Native

I was able to draw a separator with flexbox properties even with a text in the center of line.

<View style={{flexDirection: 'row', alignItems: 'center'}}>
  <View style={{flex: 1, height: 1, backgroundColor: 'black'}} />
  <View>
    <Text style={{width: 50, textAlign: 'center'}}>Hello</Text>
  </View>
  <View style={{flex: 1, height: 1, backgroundColor: 'black'}} />
</View>

enter image description here


One can use margin in order to change the width of a line and place it center.

import { StyleSheet } from 'react-native;
<View style = {styles.lineStyle} />

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  lineStyle:{
        borderWidth: 0.5,
        borderColor:'black',
        margin:10,
   }
 });

if you want to give margin dynamically then you can use Dimension width.


You could simply use an empty View with a bottom border.

<View
  style={{
    borderBottomColor: 'black',
    borderBottomWidth: StyleSheet.hairlineWidth,
  }}
/>
