A flutter package to highlight words from a text.

To use this package, add highlight_text as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file.

With this package you can highlight words and create specific actions for each highlighted word, you can customize the style of each word separately or create a unique style for all of them, you can also customize the style of the rest of the text.
Example #

You should use the HighlightedWord class to specify the dictionary words in a Map object
Map<String, HighlightedWord> words = {
"Flutter": HighlightedWord(
onTap: () {
print("Flutter");
},
textStyle: textStyle,
),
"open-source": HighlightedWord(
onTap: () {
print("open-source");
},
textStyle: textStyle,
),
"Android": HighlightedWord(
onTap: () {
print("Android");
},
textStyle: textStyle,
),
};
copied to clipboard
Now you can call the TextHighlight widget
TextHighlight(
text: text, // You need to pass the string you want the highlights
words: words, // Your dictionary words
textStyle: TextStyle( // You can set the general style, like a Text()
fontSize: 20.0,
color: Colors.black,
),
textAlign: TextAlign.justify, // You can use any attribute of the RichText widget
),
