Description
-
A widget that adds a preconfigured shimmering parent.
-
A widget for building the actual shapes, e.g.
/// Pre-configured widget for adding loading shapes to the screen. class PlaceholderShape extends StatelessWidget { const PlaceholderShape({ super.key, this.width, this.height, this.borderRadius, this.color, }); const PlaceholderShape.square({ super.key, double? size, this.borderRadius, this.color, }) : width = size, height = size; /// A rectangular shape that has the size of the text with the given style. PlaceholderShape.fromText({ super.key, required String text, required TextStyle textStyle, this.borderRadius, this.color, }) : width = text.getSize(textStyle).width, height = text.getSize(textStyle).height; final double? width; final double? height; final double? borderRadius; final Color? color; @override Widget build(BuildContext context) { // TODO: Setup the default colour. final defaultColor = Colors.white54; return ClipRRect( borderRadius: BorderRadius.all(Radius.circular(borderRadius ?? .0)), child: SizedBox( width: width, height: height, child: ColoredBox(color: color ?? defaultColor), ), ); } } -
So it can be used like this:
AppShimmer( child: Column( children: [ LoadingPlaceholderShape(...), LoadingPlaceholderShape(...), ], ), // or AppShimmer.column( children: [ LoadingPlaceholderShape(...), LoadingPlaceholderShape(...), ], ), // or AppShimmer.row( children: [ LoadingPlaceholderShape(...), LoadingPlaceholderShape(...), ], ),
