English
| 简体中文


The official BottomAppBar can only display a notch FAB with an app bar, and sometimes we need a convex FAB. BottomAppBar and NotchShape's implementation inspires this ConvexAppBar.
Online example can be found at https://appbar.codemagic.app.
convex_bottom_bar is now a Flutter Favorite package!



Here are some supported style:



fixed
react
badge chip









fixedCircle
reactCircle
flip







textIn
titled
tab image







button
fixed corner









How to use #
Typically ConvexAppBar can work with Scaffold by setup its bottomNavigationBar.
The ConvexAppBar has two constructors. The ConvexAppBar() will use the default style to simplify the tab creation.
Add this to your package's pubspec.yaml file, use the latest version :
dependencies:
convex_bottom_bar: ^latest_version
copied to clipboard
import 'package:convex_bottom_bar/bottom_bar_fix.dart';

Scaffold(
bottomNavigationBar: ConvexAppBar(
items: [
TabItem(icon: Icons.home, title: 'Home'),
TabItem(icon: Icons.map, title: 'Discovery'),
TabItem(icon: Icons.add, title: 'Add'),
TabItem(icon: Icons.message, title: 'Message'),
TabItem(icon: Icons.people, title: 'Profile'),
],
initialActiveIndex: 2,//optional, default as 0
onTap: (int i) => print('click index=$i'),
)
);

Badge #
If you need to add a badge on the tab, use the ConvexAppBar.badge to get it done.

ConvexAppBar.badge({0: '99+', 1: Icons.assistant_photo, 2: Colors.redAccent},
items: [
TabItem(icon: Icons.home, title: 'Home'),
TabItem(icon: Icons.map, title: 'Discovery'),
TabItem(icon: Icons.add, title: 'Add'),
],
onTap: (int i) => print('click index=$i'),
);

The badge() method accepts an array of badges; The badges is a map with tab items. Each value of entry can be either String, IconData, Color or Widget.
Single Button #
If you only need a single button, checkout the ConvexButton.

Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(title: const Text('ConvexButton Example')),
body: Center(child: Text('count $count')),
bottomNavigationBar: ConvexButton.fab(
onTap: () => setState(() => count++),
),
);

Style Hook #
Hook for internal tab style. Unlike the ConvexAppBar.builder, you may want to update the tab style without defining a new tab style.
Warning:
This hook is limited and can lead to overflow broken if the size you provide does not match with internal style.
StyleProvider(
style: Style(),
child: ConvexAppBar(
initialActiveIndex: 1,
height: 50,
top: -30,
curveSize: 100,
style: TabStyle.fixedCircle,
items: [
TabItem(icon: Icons.link),
TabItem(icon: Icons.import_contacts),
TabItem(title: "2020", icon: Icons.work),
],
backgroundColor: _tabBackgroundColor,
),
)
class Style extends StyleHook {
@override
double get activeIconSize => 40;

@override
double get activeIconMargin => 10;

@override
double get iconSize => 20;

@override
TextStyle textStyle(Color color) {
return TextStyle(fontSize: 20, color: color);
}
}

RTL Support #
RTL is supported internally, and if you define the TextDirection inside the app, the AppBar should work fine.
Both RTL and LTR can be configured through Directionality:
Directionality(
textDirection: TextDirection.rtl,
child: Scaffold(body:ConvexAppBar(/*TODO ...*/)),
)

Custom Example #
If the default style does not match your situation, try with ConvexAppBar.builder(), allowing you to custom nearly all the tab features.
Scaffold(
bottomNavigationBar: ConvexAppBar.builder(
count: 5,
backgroundColor: Colors.blue,
style: TabStyle.fixed,
itemBuilder: Builder(),
)
);

// user defined class
class Builder extends DelegateBuilder {
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context, int index, bool active) {
return Text('TAB $index');
}
}
