        return (
            <View>
                <BarChart
                    data={{
                        labels: [
                            '1',
                            '2',
                            '3',
                            '4',
                            '5',
                            '6',
                            '7'
                        ],
                        datasets: [
                            {
                                data: this.props.data,
                            },
                        ],
                    }}
                    svg={{ fill: 'green' }}
                    width={Dimensions.get('window').width - 16}
                    height={220}

                    chartConfig={{
                        backgroundColor: '#fff',
                        backgroundGradientFrom: '#fff',

                        decimalPlaces: 2,
                        color: (opacity = 1) => `rgba(0, 0, 0, ${opacity})`,
                        style: {
                            borderRadius: 16,
                        },
                        propsForDots: {
                            r: "0",
                            strokeWidth: "2",
                            stroke: "#fff"
                        },
                        propsForBackgroundLines: {
                            strokeWidth: 0
                        },
                    }}
                    style={{
                        marginVertical: 8,
                        borderRadius: 16,
                    }}
                />
            </View>
        );
    }

Answer 1

You can set fillShadowGradient and fillShadowGradientOpacity in your chartConfig.

More info here: https://github.com/indiespirit/react-native-chart-kit#chart-style-object

Answer 2

You can add below lines in the

chartConfig:{{
    fillShadowGradient:'skyblue',
    fillShadowGradientOpacity:1,
}}

Its works fine
