Getting started

Here’s a basic example of how to use the ReadMoreText widget in your Flutter app:

ReadMoreText
("Read more and read less is used to improve the page text visibility. It allows users to read the page's full content by pressing the read more button and hiding the content by pressing the read less button.",
trimCollapsedText: 'Show more',
trimExpandedText: 'Show less',
trimMode: TrimMode.Line,
trimLines: 2,
colorClickableText: Colors.blue,
linkStyle: TextStyle(color: Colors.blue, decoration: TextDecoration.underline),
onLinkClicked: (value) {print("clicked link $value");},
)

Text With Url Example

You can customize the appearance of links and other matched patterns using the linkStyle and linkPattern parameters. The linkStyle parameter applies to URLs and emails by default. The linkPattern parameter allows you to specify additional text patterns.
