React-native how to move screen up on textinput

In 2017 (RN 0.43) there is special component for this: KeyboardAvoidingView

You can use ScrollView to control screen up and down movements. As long as user hasn't focused any TextInput, you can disable scroll. On focus, just shift up the scrollview using Content Offset prop.

<TextInput
    onFocus={this.textInputFocused.bind(this)}
  />

textInputFocused() {
//do your stuff here. scroll screen up
}

Hope it helps!

Night Fury's answer is pretty good, though wouldn't fuss with the ScrollView's contentOffset, I'd use the ScrollResponder:

render() {
  return (
    <ScrollView ref="myScrollView">
      <TextInput
        ref="myInput"
        onFocus={this._scrollToInput.bind(this)}
      />
    </ScrollView>
  );
}

_scrollToInput {
  const scrollResponder = this.refs.myScrollView.getScrollResponder();
  const inputHandle = React.findNodeHandle(this.refs.myInput)

  scrollResponder.scrollResponderScrollNativeHandleToKeyboard(
    inputHandle, // The TextInput node handle
    0, // The scroll view's bottom "contentInset" (default 0)
    true // Prevent negative scrolling
  );
}
