Stacked Hooks

This package contains widgets that allow you to use the Flutter Hooks package with the StackedView in the Stacked architecture.

StackedHookView

The StackedView is an implementation of a widget class that returns a value provided by Provider as a parameter in the build function of the widget. This allows for easier consumption and use of ViewModel without boilerplate. The StackedHookView allows you to use this widget and make use of Flutter Hooks inside the build function. This is very useful when you want to use TextEditing controllers and you're implementing this architecture.

// View that creates and provides the viewmodel
class StackedHookViewExample extends StackedView<HomeViewModel> {
  const StackedHookViewExample({Key key}) : super(key: key);

  @override
  Widget builder(BuildContext context, HomeViewModel model, Widget? child) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: Center(child: _HookForm()),
    );
  }

  @override
  HomeViewModel modelBuilder(BuildContext context) {
    return HomeViewModel();
  }
}

// Form that makes use of the ViewModel provided above but also makes use of hooks
class _HookForm extends StackedHookView<HomeViewModel> {
  @override
  Widget buildStackedView(BuildContext context, HomeViewModel model) {
    final title = useTextEditingController();
    return Column(
      mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min,
      children: <Widget>[
        Text(model.title),
        TextField(controller: title, onChanged: model.updateTitle),
      ],
    );
  }
}

// ViewModel
class HomeViewModel extends BaseViewModel {
  String title = 'default';

  void updateTitle(String value) {
    title = value;
    notifyListeners();
  }
}
