Hide keyboard in react-native

If I tap onto a textinput, I want to be able to tap somewhere else in order to dismiss the keyboard again (not the return key though). I haven’t found the slightest piece of information concerning this in all the tutorials and blog posts that I read.

This basic example is still not working for me with react-native 0.4.2 in the Simulator. Couldn’t try it on my iPhone yet.

<View style={styles.container}>
  <Text style={styles.welcome}>
    Welcome to React Native!
  </Text>
  <Text style={styles.instructions}>
    To get started, edit index.ios.js
  </Text>
  <Text style={styles.instructions}>
    Press Cmd+R to reload,{'\n'}
    Cmd+D or shake for dev menu
  </Text>
  <TextInput
    style={{height: 40, borderColor: 'gray', borderWidth: 1}}
    onEndEditing={this.clearFocus}
  />
</View>
