FlutterCarousel(
options: FlutterCarouselOptions(
height: 400.0,
showIndicator: true,
slideIndicator: CircularSlideIndicator(),
),
items: [1,2,3,4,5].map((i) {
return Builder(

Build item widgets on demand #
This method will save memory by building items once it becomes necessary. This way they won't be built if they're not currently meant to be visible on screen. It can be used to build different child item widgets related to content or by item index.
FlutterCarousel.builder(
itemCount: 15,
itemBuilder: (BuildContext context, int itemIndex, int pageViewIndex) =>
Container(
child: Text(itemIndex.toString()),
),
)
copied to clipboard
ExpandableCarousel.builder(
itemCount: 15,
itemBuilder: (BuildContext context, int itemIndex, int pageViewIndex) =>
Container(
child: Text(itemIndex.toString()),
),
)
copied to clipboard
Carousel Controller #
In order to manually control the PageView's position, you can create your own FlutterCarouselController, and pass it to FlutterCarouselOptions. Then you can use the FlutterCarouselController instance to manipulate the position.
class CarouselDemo extends StatelessWidget {
FlutterCarouselController buttonCarouselController = FlutterCarouselController();

@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) => Column(
children: [
FlutterCarousel(
items: child,
options: FlutterCarouselOptions(
autoPlay: false,
controller: buttonCarouselController,
enlargeCenterPage: true,
viewportFraction: 0.9,
aspectRatio: 2.0,
initialPage: 2,
),
),
RaisedButton(
onPressed: () => buttonCarouselController.nextPage(
duration: Duration(milliseconds: 300), curve: Curves.linear),
child: Text('→'),
)
]
);
}
copied to clipboard
FlutterCarouselController methods #
.nextPage({Duration duration, Curve curve})
Animate to the next page
.previousPage({Duration duration, Curve curve})
Animate to the previous page
.jumpToPage(int page)
Jump to the given page.
.animateToPage(int page, {Duration duration, Curve curve})
Animate to the given page.
Predefined Slide Indicators #
The flutter_carousel_widget package comes with a few predefined slide indicators each with its own distinct behavior. To customize the slide indicators, you can pass an instance of SlideIndicatorOptions to the indicator you're using.
Slide Indicator Options Customization #
FlutterCarousel(
...
options: FlutterCarouselOptions(
...
slideIndicator: CircularSlideIndicator(
slideIndicatorOptions: SlideIndicatorOptions(
/// The alignment of the indicator.
alignment: Alignment.bottomCenter,

/// The color of the currently active item indicator.
currentIndicatorColor: Colors.white,

/// The background color of all inactive item indicators.
indicatorBackgroundColor: Colors.white.withOpacity(0.5),

/// The border color of all item indicators.
indicatorBorderColor: Colors.white,

/// The border width of all item indicators.
indicatorBorderWidth: 1,

/// The radius of all item indicators.
indicatorRadius: 6,

/// The spacing between each item indicator.
itemSpacing: 20,

/// The padding of the indicator.
padding: const EdgeInsets.all(8.0),

/// The decoration of the indicator halo.
haloDecoration: BoxDecoration(
borderRadius: const BorderRadius.all(Radius.circular(15.0)),
color: Colors.black.withOpacity(0.5)),

/// The padding of the indicator halo.
haloPadding: const EdgeInsets.all(8.0),

/// Whether to enable the indicator halo.
enableHalo: true,

/// Whether to enable the animation. Only used in [CircularStaticIndicator] and [SequentialFillIndicator].
enableAnimation: true,
),
),
),
);

Custom Slide Indicators #
There might be cases where you want to control the look or behavior of the slide indicator or implement a totally new one. You can do that by implementing the SlideIndicator contract.
The following example implements an indicator which tells the percentage of the slide the user is on:
class SlidePercentageIndicator implements SlideIndicator {
SlidePercentageIndicator({
this.decimalPlaces = 0,
this.style,
});

/// The number of decimal places to show in the output
final int decimalPlaces;

/// The text style to be used by the percentage text
final TextStyle? style;

@override
Widget build(int currentPage, double pageDelta, int itemCount) {
if (itemCount < 2) return const SizedBox.shrink();
final step = 100 / (itemCount - 1);
final percentage = step * (pageDelta + currentPage);
return Center(
child: Text(
'${percentage.toStringAsFixed(decimalPlaces)}%',
style: style ??
const TextStyle(
fontSize: 24,
fontWeight: FontWeight.w600,
),
),
);
}
}
