Usage

To use this package, add simple_loading_dialog as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file.

Showing the dialog

To show the dialog, use the showSimpleLoadingDialog function.

final result = showSimpleLoadingDialog<String>(
  context: context,
  future: myFutureFunction,
);

This will show a full-screen progress dialog while waiting for the myFutureFunction to complete. Once the Future completes, the result will be returned and the dialog will be dismissed.

Customizing the appearance

The appearance of the dialog can be customized by passing a dialogBuilder.

showSimpleLoadingDialog<void>(
  context: context,
  future: myFutureFunction,
  dialogBuilder: (context, _) => AlertDialog(
    content: Column(
      mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min,
      children: [
        CircularProgressIndicator(),
        SizedBox(height: 16),
        Text('Custom message'),
      ],
    ),
  ),
);

Using SimpleLoadingDialogTheme (recommended)

To customize the appearance of the dialog using the SimpleLoadingDialogTheme extension, define a theme in your app and pass it to the showSimpleProgressDialog function.

MaterialApp(
  title: 'My App',
  theme: ThemeData(
    useMaterial3: true,
    colorSchemeSeed: Colors.blue,
    // Set default theme like this
    extensions: [
      SimpleLoadingDialogTheme(
        dialogBuilder: (context, message) {
          return AlertDialog(
            content: Column(
              mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min,
              children: [
                const SizedBox(height: 16),
                const CircularProgressIndicator(),
                const SizedBox(height: 16),
                Text(message),
                const SizedBox(height: 16),
              ],
            ),
          );
        },
      ),
    ],
  ),
  home: MyHomePage(),
);

~~~

final result = showSimpleLoadingDialog<String>(
  context: context,
  future: myFutureFunction,
  message: "Saving...",
);

Handling errors

If an error occurs while waiting for the Future to complete, the exception will be rethrown. To handle the error, use a try-catch block.

try {
  await showSimpleLoadingDialog<void>(
    context: context,
    future: myFutureFunction,
  );
} catch (e) {
  // Handle the error.
}
