Retrieve Coordinates after moving

[Stophface]

I want to retrieve the coordinates of the draggable once it has been moved and write it to the store, so that once the app is closed, I can retrieve the coordinates to position the draggable where it was before the user closed the App.
Currently my draggable is inside a <View /> that hast 100% height and width.

<View
        style={styles.container} >
        <Draggable
            x={0}
            y={0}
            z={7}
            onDragRelease={(event, gestureState, bounds) => ??}
            shouldReverse={false}
            isCircle={true}
            renderSize={90}>
            <View
                style={styles.wrapper}>
                ...
            </View>
        </Draggable>
    </View >


const styles = StyleSheet.create({
    container: {
        zIndex: 2,
        width: '100%',
        height: '100%',
        backgroundColor: 'red',
    },
    wrapper: {
        zIndex: 998,
        height: SIZE,
        width: SIZE,
        borderRadius: SIZE / 2,
        borderWidth: 3,
        borderColor: colors.touchables
    },
});

Currently I am passing it the position x and y statically with 0. I need to pass it dynamically. I think onDragRelease() is the right method for this. But, whatever I pass it from gestureState, let it be moveX, x0, ... That is the wrong position for the draggable. After releasing the draggable, it jumps to a weird position, not where it was released. How would I retrieve the precise coordinates of the draggable, after is has been moved and released?

What you need is to access the event property to get the pageX and pageY values. That should give you what you need:

onDragRelease={(event, gestureState, bounds) => {
      const nativeEvent = event.nativeEvent;
      console.log('pageX', nativeEvent.pageX);
      console.log('pageY', nativeEvent.pageY);
}}

@shabaz-ejaz That is not working...
See, I initially pass it x = 0 and y =0. However, when I use

onDragRelease={(event, gestureState, bounds) => {
      const nativeEvent = event.nativeEvent;
      console.log('pageX', nativeEvent.pageX);
      console.log('pageY', nativeEvent.pageY);
}}

and only move it a tiny little bit, I get the following values: pageX = 323, pageY = 107.
Since I move the draggable only a tiny little bit, these values are somewhat weird. They should be very close to 0.

onDragRelease={(event, gestureState, bounds) => {
      const nativeEvent = event.nativeEvent;
      console.log('pageX', nativeEvent.pageX);
      console.log('pageY', nativeEvent.pageY);
}}

Do you mind expanding on this a bit? pageX and pageY don't seem to have the correct position for me. I have better luck using old position + locationX and old position + locationY but it still isn't quite right.

@thijs-qv Di you find a solution to this? It seems close to impossible ;)

Unfortunately not, no. I didn’t want to spend too much time on it so in the end I removed this lib entirely and just made a few preset locations for my button which the user can choose from.

I had this same problem and was finally able to figure it out. See my comment in this issue
