AttachmentPickerContext

AttachmentPickerContext is provided by Channel. If you are not familiar with the React Context API, see the React docs.

Best Practices

• Use useAttachmentPickerContext for consistent access and typings.
• Manage picker visibility through openPicker/closePicker to keep state aligned.
• Prefer setting topInset and bottomInset on Channel for normal screen layout, and keep those values consistent with your layout.
• Avoid using the picker context outside Channel to prevent undefined state.
• Keep custom picker UI lightweight to preserve input performance.

Basic Usage

Consume AttachmentPickerContext in any child of Channel:

import { useContext } from "react";
import { AttachmentPickerContext } from "stream-chat-react-native";

const { openPicker, closePicker } = useContext(AttachmentPickerContext);

Alternatively, use the useAttachmentPickerContext hook.

import { useAttachmentPickerContext } from "stream-chat-react-native";

const { openPicker, closePicker } = useAttachmentPickerContext();
