Draggable Button Panel

Description

The DraggableButtonPanel is a widget that displays a panel with a button that can be moved around the screen. When the button is clicked, it triggers an animation that brings up a side panel containing a list of options.

The panel is initially closed and appears with a reduced opacity. When the button is clicked, the panel opens with a fade-in animation. The panel is displayed to the left or right of the button, depending on its initial position on the screen.

The panel contains a list of options in the form of icons, which can be customized by the user. The icons are arranged horizontally in the panel. When an option is selected, a corresponding action can be triggered.

The panel and button are customizable in terms of color, size and opacity. Properties such as options, buttonSize, panelColor, buttonColor and collapseOpacity allow you to customize the appearance and behavior of the DraggableButtonPanel.

The DraggableButtonPanel is implemented using Flutter features such as StatefulWidget, AnimationController, AnimatedOpacity, Stack and Positioned, to manage the state of the panel, perform animations and properly arrange the elements on the screen.

In summary, the DraggableButtonPanel is a handy widget for displaying a draggable button with a side panel of options in a Flutter application.

Usage

To use the DraggableButtonPanel, simply import it and use it in your widget. You can customize the buttons, colors, sizes and positions of the panel.

You can also retrieve the top position of the currentState to update the panel position according to your application needs.

Here is an example code:

import 'package:draggable_button_panel/draggable_button_panel.dart';

final GlobalKey<DraggableButtonPanelState> _draggableButtonPanelKey =
    GlobalKey<DraggableButtonPanelState>();

DraggableButtonPanel(
  key: _draggableButtonPanelKey,
  children: [
    IconButton(
      icon: Icon(Icons.favorite),
      onPressed: () {},
    ),
    IconButton(
      icon: Icon(Icons.access_alarm),
      onPressed: () {},
    ),
  ],
  top: _draggableButtonPanelKey.currentState?.top ?? 50,
)
