Inline RichText Span

This package provides InlineRichTextSpanWidget, a convenient wrapper around Flutter's RichText widget. It's designed to make constructing complex text layouts with multiple styles more straightforward by accepting InlineSpans directly in its children list.

Features

• Simplified API: Directly pass a List<InlineSpan> to the children property.
• Familiar Properties: Inherits most properties from the standard RichText widget (e.g., textAlign, textDirection, softWrap, overflow, maxLines, etc.).
• Easy Styling: Construct text with various styles, sizes, weights, and colors seamlessly.
• Gesture Recognition: Supports TextSpans with GestureRecognizers for interactive text.

Getting Started

Installation

1. Add this to your package's pubspec.yaml file:

dependencies:
  inline_rich_text_span: version

2. Or install it by running the following command in your project's root directory:

flutter pub add inline_rich_text_span

3. Now, import the package in your Dart code:

import 'package:inline_rich_text_span/inline_rich_text_span.dart';

Usage

InlineRichTextSpanWidget is built and returns the standard RichText widget, but you provide InlineSpan children directly.

Basic Example

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:inline_rich_text_span/inline_rich_text_span.dart';

class MyTextWidget extends StatelessWidget {
  const MyTextWidget({super.key});

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return const InlineRichTextSpanWidget(
      children: [
        TextSpan(text: 'Hello, '),
        TextSpan(
          text: 'Flutter Developers!',
          style: TextStyle(
            fontWeight: FontWeight.bold,
            color: Colors.blue,
            fontSize: 18,
          ),
        ),
        TextSpan(text: ' Welcome to '),
        TextSpan(
          text: 'InlineRichTextSpan.',
          style: TextStyle(fontStyle: FontStyle.italic, color: Colors.green),
        ),
      ],
      textAlign: TextAlign.center,
    );
  }
}

Example with Interactive Text (Tap Gesture)

import 'package:flutter/gestures.dart';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:inline_rich_text_span/inline_rich_text_span.dart';

class InteractiveTextExample extends StatefulWidget {
  const InteractiveTextExample({super.key});

  @override
  State<InteractiveTextExample> createState() => _InteractiveTextExampleState();
}

class _InteractiveTextExampleState extends State<InteractiveTextExample> {
  String _message = "Tap on 'Clickable'.";
  late TapGestureRecognizer _tapRecognizer;

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();
    _tapRecognizer =
        TapGestureRecognizer()
          ..onTap = () {
            setState(() {
              _message = "'Clickable' was tapped!";
            });
            // Remember to dispose of the recognizer if it's part of a stateful widget
            // and the widget is removed from the tree, or if you re-create it.
            // However, for TextSpans, Flutter's RichText handles this.
            // If you were creating it outside a TextSpan, you'd manage its lifecycle.
          };
  }

  @override
  void dispose() {
    _tapRecognizer.dispose();
    // Important to dispose of recognizers
    super.dispose();
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Column(
      mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
      children: [
        InlineRichTextSpanWidget(
          children: [
            const TextSpan(text: 'This is some text. '),
            TextSpan(
              text: 'Clickable',
              style: const TextStyle(
                color: Colors.purple,
                decoration: TextDecoration.underline,
                fontWeight: FontWeight.bold,
              ),
              recognizer: _tapRecognizer,
            ),
            const TextSpan(text: ' and some more normal text.'),
          ],
        ),
        const SizedBox(height: 20),
        Text(_message),
      ],
    );
  }
}
