How do I display a Gif from the giphy api in React Native?

I'm currently trying to build a simple app using the giphy api, to just show one gif from the giphy api off of a search. I can't quite figure it out though... I'm using Expo so I can't use React Native libraries. I'm currently running with this:



import React, {Component} from 'react';
import {AppRegistry, Image} from 'react-native';

export default class App extends Component {

getGif() {
let url = 'http://api.giphy.com/v1/gifs/search?q=piggyback&api_key=INSERT_KEY_HERE';
fetch(url)
.then(response => response.json());
}

render() {
return(
<Image source={{uri: 'https://api.giphy.com/v1/gifs/search?q=piggyback&api_key=INSERT_KEY_HERE' }} style={{width: 100, height:100}}/>
);
}
}

AppRegistry.registerComponent('AwesomeProject', () => App);


I have also tried using source={this.getGif}, but I got a warning of "Invalid prop source supplied to ForwardRef(Image)"
