capacitor-statusbar-safe-area

Get Status bar height and Safe area insets on Android & iOS.

Install

npm install @aashu-dubey/capacitor-statusbar-safe-area
npx cap sync

Usage

import { SafeArea } from '@aashu-dubey/capacitor-statusbar-safe-area';

const getStatusBarHeight = async () => {
  const { height } = await SafeArea.getStatusBarHeight();
  return height; // Ex. 29.090909957885742
};

const getSafeAreaInsets = async () => {
  const insets = await SafeArea.getSafeAreaInsets();
  return insets; // Ex. { "bottom":34, "top":47, "right":0, "left":0 }
};

CSS Variables

Package also exposes CSS variables, for that you need to call injectCSSVariables method in your platform.ready() function or whenever app System UI visibility is changed

import { SafeAreaController } from '@aashu-dubey/capacitor-statusbar-safe-area';

const injectSafeAreaVariables = () => {
  SafeAreaController.injectCSSVariables();
};

then you can use them in your CSS files

.myContainer {
  // '--status-bar-height' & '--safe-area-inset-top' would most probably be same
  margin-top: var(--status-bar-height);
}

.myElement {
  padding-top: var(--safe-area-inset-top);
  padding-left: var(--safe-area-inset-left);
  padding-right: var(--safe-area-inset-right);
  padding-bottom: var(--safe-area-inset-bottom);
}

HTML Tag

Other than the above options, you can also use safe-area web component exported by the plugin.

Angular

For Angular users, you will get an error warning that this web component is unknown to the Angular compiler. This is resolved by modifying the module that declares your component to allow for custom web components.

// your-component.module.ts
import { CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA } from '@angular/core';

@NgModule({
  schemas: [CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA]
})

You also have to register the custom element before using the tag

// app.component.ts or your-component.ts

import { registerSafeAreaElement } '@aashu-dubey/capacitor-statusbar-safe-area';

registerSafeAreaElement();

then just wrap the part you want to apply safe area padding on with safe-area tag as below

<safe-area>
  <!-- Other content -->
</safe-area>

Others

You will have to import the plugin in your component in order to make the web component work.

React

import { registerSafeAreaElement } '@aashu-dubey/capacitor-statusbar-safe-area';

registerSafeAreaElement();

const MyComponent = () => {
  return (
    <safe-area>
      // Other content
    </safe-area>
  );
}

Vue

<template>
  <safe-area>
    <!-- Other content -->
  </safe-area>
</template>

<script setup lang="ts">
import { registerSafeAreaElement } '@aashu-dubey/capacitor-statusbar-safe-area';

registerSafeAreaElement();
</script>

Attributes

There are two attributes, that can be used with the safe-area web component to control it's behaviour, mode & edges.

<safe-area mode="margin" edges="top,left,right"></safe-area>
