Is there a way for me to retrieve the image source uri "profileImage" from the image component and pass it to the function, profileImageFilter(), as 'image source'.
I want 'image source' to be the "uri: profileImage" value
<TouchableOpacity onPress={profileImageFilter('image source')}>
<Image style={styles.profileimage} source={{uri: profileImage}}></Image>
</TouchableOpacity>
If You have access to profile image in the render function then why don't you just past it to the function?
See example:
<View>
<TouchableOpacity onPress={() => profileImageFilter({uri: profileImage})}>
<Image style={styles.profileimage} source={{uri: profileImage}}></Image>
</TouchableOpacity>
<TouchableOpacity onPress={() => profileImageFilter({uri: profileImage2})}>
<Image style={styles.profileimage} source={{uri: profileImage2}}></Image>
</TouchableOpacity>
<TouchableOpacity onPress={() => profileImageFilter({uri: profileImage3})}>
<Image style={styles.profileimage} source={{uri: profileImage3}}></Image>
</TouchableOpacity>
</View>
