Description:

flutter persistent keyboard height

flutter_persistent_keyboard_height #
Flutter package to get keyboard height. The height is persisted during app
sessions and keyboard states (you can use the height when keyboard is closed).

Usage #
Registering the provider
First thing you need to do is wrap a widget from children of which you want
to get the keyboard height with PersistentKeyboardHeightProvider.
Add it to the builder of your app widget (perhaps MaterialApp) if you
want to get keyboard height from all widgets.
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
const MyApp({Key? key}) : super(key: key);

@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
title: 'Flutter Persistent Keyboard Height Example',
home: const FlutterPersistentKeyboardHeightExample(),
builder: (context, child) => PersistentKeyboardHeightProvider(
child: child!,
),
);
}
}

Getting the keyboard height
In order to get keyboard height use the PersistentKeyboardHeight
inherited widget:
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
final keyboardHeight = PersistentKeyboardHeight.of(context).keyboardHeight;

return Scaffold(
body: Column(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
children: [
const Padding(
padding: EdgeInsets.all(16.0),
child: TextField(
decoration: InputDecoration(
labelText: 'Flutter Persistent Keyboard Size Example',
),
),
),
const SizedBox(height: 8),
Text('Keyboard height: $keyboardHeight'),
],
),
);
}

Using a custom storage provider
By default, the package uses shared_preferences to preserve the keyboard
height but if you want to use a custom solution for preserving the height
you can do that by implementing the IPersistentKeyboardHeightStorageProvider
interface and passing an instance of the class to PersistentKeyboardHeightProvider:
class CustomPersistentKeyboardHeightStorageProvider
implements IPersistentKeyboardHeightStorageProvider {
const CustomPersistentKeyboardHeightStorageProvider();

@override
Future<double> getHeight() {
// read the height from storage
}

@override
Future<void> setHeight(double height) {
// save the height to storage
}
}

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
const MyApp({Key? key}) : super(key: key);

@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
title: 'Flutter Persistent Keyboard Height Example',
home: const FlutterPersistentKeyboardHeightExample(),
builder: (context, child) => PersistentKeyboardHeightProvider(
child: child!,
),
);
}
}

The development process #
The first version of this package was developed in two livestreams.
Unfortunately, my voice disappeared at the middle of the first livestream but
the second livestream is okay. In case you want to check them out, here are the links:

Part 2.
