Slide-up view in Flutter

Question

I'm trying to make something similar to google/apple maps screen in flutter. I just started experimenting in Flutter and I have a hard time understand that "Draggable widget". Could someone give me example code how they made their slide-up view, I can learn from? I can't find any.

Solution 1

Draggable (and DragTarget) is not used for what you call slide-up view

slide-up view, from the android world, is for bottom aligned modals. Draggable is to transfer data using Drag&Drop.

In flutter, bottom modals are fairly simple :

First, make sure you have somewhere above in your tree a Scaffold. As it's what will position everything together.

Then, call either showBottomSheet or showModalBottomSheet with whatever content you like. The content will now automatically appear at the bottom of your screen.

That's it, your job is done ! You can optionally now add a custom close event. For this, you'll just have to call Navigator.pop(context). But both modal and non-modal bottom sheet can be closed out of the box using common gestures. Such as back button, navbar back, of click outside.

Full example :

class MyExample extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return new MaterialApp(
      home: new Scaffold(
        appBar: new AppBar(title: new Text('Example')),
        body: new Center(
          child: new Builder(builder: (context) {
            return new Row(
              mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceEvenly,
              children: <Widget>[
                new RaisedButton(
                  onPressed: () => modal(context),
                  child: new Text("modal"),
                ),
                new RaisedButton(
                  onPressed: () => showSlideupView(context),
                  child: new Text("non modal"),
                ),
              ],
            );
          }),
        ),
      ),
    );
  }

  void showSlideupView(BuildContext context) {
    showBottomSheet(
        context: context,
        builder: (context) {
          return new Container(
            child: new GestureDetector(
              onTap: () => Navigator.pop(context),
              child: new Text("Click me to close this non-modal bottom sheet"),
            ),
          );
        });
  }

  modal(BuildContext context) {
    showModalBottomSheet(
        context: context,
        builder: (context) {
          return new Container(
            child: new Text("This is a modal bottom sheet !"),
          );
        });
  }
}

Solution 2

There's also the sliding_up_panel Flutter library you could use to implement the same sort of design that Google/Apple Maps uses.

Solution 3

Now you can use Sliding Up Panel plugin to do that, its awesome.

Thanks, your example is great! Now what if I want expand the bottom view such as google maps when you click marker on a map and bottom view pops up, then you can expand it by sliding it up. That's why the "draggable" confused me. Do I need to make draggable for that ?

[Rémi Rousselet]

No draggable is not used for drag actions. You can instead use GestureDetector and onVerticalDrag.

[Farshid Zaker]

Is it possible to hide the collapsed widget and show it upon some event?

[Sam]

It is possible now yes. It has various properties you can manipulate using setState()
