rx_widgets
is a package with stream based Flutter Widgets and Widget helper/convenience classes that facilitate an reactive programming style especially in combination with RxDart and RxCommands.
If you have any ideas for additional stream based Widget, open an issue PRs are always welcome ;-)
Add to your pubspec.yaml

Creates a RaisedButton that has an rxCommand instead of onPressed. It gets disabled if the command has canExecute:false or when isExecuting:true
/// an extended `RaisedButton` where the `onPressed` is replaced with `rxCommand`
/// and it gets disabled if the `rxCommand` has the `canExecute` set to `false` or when it is executing

a Text that takes in a Stream<String>
and displays it. An example of usage can be when showing status message , or results of some requests.
RxText(
this.stream, {
Key key,
this.style,
this.textAlign,
this.textDirection,
this.locale,
this.softWrap,
this.overflow,
this.textScaleFactor,
this.maxLines,
this.semanticsLabel,
}) : assert(stream != null && stream is Stream<String>),
textSpan = null,
super(key: key);
Spinner/Busy indicator that reacts on the output of a Stream<bool>
it starts running as soon as a true
value is received until the next false
is emitted. If the Spinner should replace another Widget while Spinning this widget can be passed as normal
parameter. RxSpinner
also adapts to the current or specified platform look. Needless to say that RxSpinner
is ideal in combination with RxCommand's
isExecuting
Observable
/// Creates a new RxSpinner instance
/// `busyEvents` : `Stream<bool>` that controls the activity of the Spinner. On receiving `true` it replaces the `normal` widget
/// and starts running undtil it receives a `false`value.
/// `platform` : defines platorm style of the Spinner. If this is null or not provided the style of the current platform will be used
/// `radius` : radius of the Spinner
/// `normal` : Widget that should be displayed while the Spinner is not active. If this is null a `Container` will be created instead.
/// all other parameters please see https://docs.flutter.io/flutter/material/CircularProgressIndicator-class.html
/// they are ignored if the platform style is iOS.
const RxSpinner({this.busyEvents,
this.platform,
this.radius = 20.0,
this.backgroundColor,
this.value,
this.valueColor,
this.strokeWidth: 4.0,
this.normal,
Key key })
: assert(busyEvents != null), super(key: key);
RxSpinner is great for simple Applications where you just want to show or hide a Spinner. But often especially when loading data you want to deal with errors and show an alternative Widget if no data arrived. Since RxCommand
offers not only three separate Observables for state changes and results but is also an Observable<CommandResult<T>
itself that emits CommandResult
that bundle all state and data in one Object RxLoader
leverage this to support the Flutter update mechanic better.
/// Creates a new `RxLoader` instance
/// [busyEvents] : `Stream<bool>` that controls the activity of the Spinner. On receiving `true` it replaces the `normal` widget
/// and starts running undtil it receives a `false`value.
/// [platform] : defines platorm style of the Spinner. If this is null or not provided the style of the current platform will be used
/// [radius] : radius of the Spinner
/// [dataBuilder] : Builder that will be called as soon as an event with data is received. It will get passed the `data` feeld of the CommandResult.
/// If this is null a `Container` will be created instead.
/// [placeHolderBuilder] : Builder that will be called as soon as an event with `data==null` is received.
/// If this is null a `Container` will be created instead.
/// [dataBuilder] : Builder that will be called as soon as an event with an `error` is received. It will get passed the `error` feeld of the CommandResult.
/// If this is null a `Container` will be created instead.
/// all other parameters please see https://docs.flutter.io/flutter/material/CircularProgressIndicator-class.html
/// they are ignored if the platform style is iOS.
const RxLoader({this.commandResults,
this.platform,
this.radius = 20.0,
this.backgroundColor,
this.value,
this.valueColor,
this.strokeWidth: 4.0,
this.dataBuilder,
this.placeHolderBuilder,
this.errorBuilder,
Key key })
: assert(commandResults != null), super(key: key);
WidgetSelector
is a convenience class that will return one of two Widgets based on the output of a Stream<bool>
This is pretty handy if you want to react to state change like enable/disable in you ViewModel and update the View accordingly.
If you don't need builders for the alternative child widgets this class offers a more concise expression than WidgetBuilderSelector
/// Creates a new WidgetSelector instance
/// `buildEvents` : `Stream<bool>`that signals that the this Widget should be updated
/// `onTrue` : Widget that should be returned if an item with value true is received
/// `onFalse`: Widget that should be returned if an item with value true is received
const WidgetSelector({this.buildEvents, this.onTrue, this.onFalse, Key key })
: assert(buildEvents != null),assert(onTrue != null),
assert(onFalse != null), super(key: key);
This is an example where it is used to enable/disable a Button
new WidgetSelector(buildEvents: TheViewModel.of(context).updateWeatherCommand.canExecute,
onTrue: new RaisedButton(
child: new Text("Update"),
color: new Color.fromARGB(255, 33, 150, 243),
textColor: new Color.fromARGB(255, 255, 255, 255),
onPressed: TheViewModel.of(context).updateWeatherCommand,
),
onFalse: new RaisedButton(
child: new Text("Update"),
color: new Color.fromARGB(255, 33, 150, 243),
textColor: new Color.fromARGB(255, 255, 255, 255),
onPressed: null,
),
),
Like WidgetSelector
but instead return Widgets it executes one of two provided builder functions.
In comparison to WidgetSelector
this is best used if the alternative child widgets are large so that you don't want to have them always created without using them.
/// Creates a new WidgetBuilderSelector instance
/// `buildEvents` : `Stream<bool>`that signals that the this Widget should be updated
/// `onTrue` : builder that should be executed if an item with value true is received
/// `onFalse`: builder that should be executed if an item with value true is received
const WidgetBuilderSelector({this.buildEvents, this.onTrue, this.onFalse, Key key })
: assert(buildEvents != null),assert(onTrue != null), assert(onFalse != null), super(key: key);
If you are working with RxCommands
this is a special Builder that lets you define different builder for the different states an RxCommand can issue.
If you don't specify one of the builders it will create a Container
for that state.
/// Creates a new `RxCommandBuilder` instance
/// [commandResults] : `Stream<CommandResult<T>>` or a `RxCommand<T>` that issues `CommandResults`
/// [busyBuilder] : Builder that will be called as soon as an event with `isExecuting==true`.
/// [dataBuilder] : Builder that will be called as soon as an event with data is received. It will get passed the `data` feeld of the CommandResult.
/// If this is null a `Container` will be created instead.
/// [placeHolderBuilder] : Builder that will be called as soon as an event with `data==null` is received.
/// If this is null a `Container` will be created instead.
/// [dataBuilder] : Builder that will be called as soon as an event with an `error` is received. It will get passed the `error` feeld of the CommandResult.
/// If this is null a `Container` will be created instead.
const RxCommandBuilder({Key key,
this.commandResults,
this.platform,
this.radius = 20.0,
this.backgroundColor,
this.value,
this.valueColor,
this.strokeWidth: 4.0,
this.busyBuilder,
this.dataBuilder,
this.placeHolderBuilder,
this.errorBuilder,
})
: assert(commandResults != null), super(key: key);
