How to use useRef

[Bryant-Anjos]

The problem

When trying using useRef in a Paper.TextInput the rescript throws This has type: React.ref<Js.Nullable.t<'a>> Somewhere wanted: Js.Nullable.t<'b> => unit

How to reproduce

Steps to reproduce:

1. Define a ref with useRef:

let inputRef = React.useRef(Js.Nullable.null)

2. Use the ref in a TextInput component:

<Paper.TextInput
  ref=inputRef
  mode=#outlined
/>

Expected behavior

Expect to compiler compile to use the ref

Actual behavior

The compiler throws: This has type: React.ref<Js.Nullable.t<'a>> Somewhere wanted: Js.Nullable.t<'b> => unit

Maybe paper bindings are not up to date? poke @DCKT

[Bryant-Anjos]

@MoOx I was using the latest version of rescript-react-native/paper

I was assuming that the bindings are not up to date with rescript-react-native, not that you were not using the correct version.
