🦾 Set of methods/extensions for flutter that makes using framework in a much easier and clean way also adds additional functionality.

Let's get started

1. Go to pubspec.yaml
2. add a ns_utils and replace [version] with the latest version:

dependencies:
  flutter:
    sdk: flutter
  ns_utils: ^[version]

3. click the packages get button or flutter pub get

Import the package

import 'package:ns_utils/src.dart';

CustomErrorWidget

Read Flutter -: KILL THE RED SCREEN OF DEATH for detailed explanation.

Sizes

Read Responsive App in Flutter for detailed explanation.

BuildContext Extensions

Are you still typing MediaQuery.of(context).size... or Navigator.of(this).push.. ? Let's change that 🤩

❌ Navigator.of(context).push(MaterialPageRoute(
    builder: (_) => FlutterScreen(),
  ));

✅ context.push(FlutterScreen());

✅ context.replace(FlutterScreen());

✅ context.makeFirst(FlutterScreen());

✅ context.pushAfterFirst(FlutterScreen());

✅ context.pop(FlutterScreen());

✅ context.popToFirst(FlutterScreen());

✅ context.maybePop(FlutterScreen());

❌  MediaQuery.of(context).size.width;

✅ context.mq.sizeX.width;
✅ context.mq.sizeX.height;

FocusNode focusNode=FocusNode();
❌ FocusScope.of(context).requestFocus(focusNode);

✅ context.setFocus(focusNode:focusNode);

DateTime Extensions

.dayDifference

If value is NULL returns Null Else returns the difference between current date and the object in days excluding the the time values

.toServerFormat()

Returns an ISO-8601 full-precision extended format representation.

.isToday

return true if the date is today

.isYesterday

return true if the date is Yesterday

.isTomorrow

return true if the date is Tomorrow

.tomorrow()

.yesterday()

return previous day

Map Extensions

.getBool('key') .getInt('key') .getDouble('key')

.getString('key') .getList('key') .getMap('key')

Reads a key value from Map. If value is NULL or not same type return default value defaultValue

    test('getBool', () {
      Map data = {
        'key': true,
      };
      expect(data.getBool('key'), true);
      data = {
        'key1': true,
      };
      expect(data.getBool('key'), false);
    });

.toJson()

Map to JSON usingjson.encode

    test('toJson', () {
      Map data = {
        'key': {"id": 1},
      };
      expect(data.toJson(), '{"key":{"id":1}}');
    });

.toPretty()

Convert map to a String withIndent to increase readability. Thank me later 🕴️

Widget Extensions & Spacers

So now you can just add tootips and added gestures to our Widgets without the crazy water-fall effect. awesome! That's just the tip of the iceberg, expect to see very cool stuff soon.

❌  Tooltip(
    message: 'NS Utils Text',
    child: GestureDetector(
      onLongPress: () => print('onLongPress'),
      onTap: () => print('onTap'),
      child: Container(
        height: 100,
        width: 100,
        child: Text('NS Utils are Awesome'),),
    ),
  ),


✅ Container(height: 100, width: 100,child: Text('NS Utils are Awesome'),)
     .withTooltip('NS Utils Text')
     .onLongPress(() => print('onLongPress'))
     .onTap(() => print('onTap')),

❌ SizedBox(
   height: 10,
   width: 10,
   )
OR
❌ Container(
   height: 10,
   width: 10,
