Flutter DecoratedText

The DecoratedText widget allows you to style and interact with different parts of a text string based on predefined rules. It's versatile, easy-to-use, and can handle different scenarios such as matching specific words, phrases, or patterns, allowing you to style the matched text differently.

Features

• Selectable Text: Enable the selectable property (selectable: true) to allow text selection in the DecoratedText widget.
• Predefined Rules: These are used to match different elements within the text. These rules include:
  • Matching words.
  • Matching text starting with a particular prefix.
  • Matching text between specific tags.
  • Matching links (URLs).
• Interactive: Each rule can include an onTap callback, which returns the matched text, allowing you to implement interactive behavior such as opening a link when a URL is tapped.

Usage Examples

Match Text Between Tags

DecoratedText(
    text: "Like between brackets {this is an example} or html tags <p>this is a paragraph</p>",
    rules: [
        DecoratorRule.between(
            start: "{",
            end: "}",
            style: TextStyle(
                color: Colors.blue,
            ),
        ),
        DecoratorRule.between(
            start: "<p>",
            end: "</p>",
            style: TextStyle(
                color: Colors.green,
            ),
        ),
    ],
);

Match Text Starting With a Prefix

DecoratedText(
    text: "Like twitter accounts @gabdsg or hashtags #decoratedtext",
    rules: [
        DecoratorRule.startsWith(
            text: "@",
            onTap: (match) {
                print(match);
            },
            style: TextStyle(
                color: Colors.blue,
            ),
        ),
        DecoratorRule.startsWith(
            text: "#",
            onTap: (match) {
                print(match);
            },
            style: TextStyle(
                color: Colors.green,
            ),
        ),
    ],
);

Match Specific Words

DecoratedText(
    text: "Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book.",
    rules: [
        DecoratorRule.words(
            words: ["lorem ipsum", "industry", "book", "make"],
            onTap: (match) {
                print(match);
            },
            style: TextStyle(
                background: Paint()..color = Colors.yellow,
            ),
        ),
    ],
);

Match URLs

DecoratedText(
    text: "You can match links with https https://pub.dev/ and links without it like google.com",
    rules: [
        DecoratorRule.url(
            onTap: (url) {
                print(url);
            },
            style: TextStyle(
                color: Colors.blue,
                decoration: TextDecoration.underline,
            ),
        ),
    ],
);

Custom Rule using Regular Expressions

DecoratedText(
    text: "Match links and add the favicon: https://pub.dev/, https://google.com, stackoverflow.com and talkingpts.org",
    rules: [
        DecoratorRule(
        regExp: RegExp(r'((https?:\/\/)?(www\.)?[-a-zA-Z0-9@:%._\+~#=]{2,256

}\.[a-z]{2,4}\b([-a-zA-Z0-9@:%_\+.~#?&//=]*))',
            caseSensitive: false,
            dotAll: true,
            multiLine: true,
        ),
        onTap: (url) {
            print(url);
        },
        style: TextStyle(
            color: Colors.blue,
        ),
        leadingBuilder: (match) => Container(
                width: 16 * 0.8,
                height: 16 * 0.8,
                margin: const EdgeInsets.only(right: 2, left: 2),
                child: CachedNetworkImage(
                    imageUrl: "${sanitizeUrl(match)}/favicon.ico",
                ),
            ),
        ),
    ],
),

Remember, with the DecoratedText widget, you can style your text based on predefined rules, add interactivity, and handle complex matching scenarios with ease. Happy coding!
