smooth_sheets

GitHub Repo stars Pub Version Pub Likes Pub Points

smooth_sheets offers modal and persistent sheet widgets for Flutter apps. The key features are:

  • Smooth motion: The sheets respond to user interaction with smooth, graceful motion.
  • Highly flexible: Not restricted to a specific design. Both modal and persistent styles are supported, as well as scrollable and non-scrollable widgets.
  • Supports nested navigation: A sheet is able to have multiple pages and to navigate between the pages with motion animation for transitions.
  • Works with imperative & declarative Navigator API: No special navigation mechanism is required. The traditional ways such as Navigator.push is supported and it works with Navigator 2.0 packages like go_route as well.
  • iOS flavor: The modal sheets in the style of iOS 15 are supported.

Why use this?

There are few packages on pub.dev that supports nested navigation with motion animation for page transitions. One of the great choices for this usecase is wolt_modal_sheet, which this package is inspired by. Although smooth_sheet has similar features with wolt_modal_sheet, it is not intended to be a replacement of that package. Here is some differences between those 2 packages:

wolt_modal_sheet smooth_sheets
Design Based on Wolt's design guideline Not restricted to a specific design, fully customizable
Navigation mechanism Manage the page index in ValueNotifier Works with built-in Navigator API (both of imperative and declarative)
Scrollable content Supported Supported
Persistent sheets Not supported Supported
Screen size adaptation The sheet appears as a dialog on large screens Not supported

Usage

Several resources are available for learning the functionalities of this package.


Ingredients

This section provides descriptions for each core component and links to related resources for further learning.


SheetOffset

SheetOffset represents a position of the sheet within the SheetViewport where the sheet is rendered. It's used in various situations, e.g., specifing the initial position of the sheet or defining a set of positions to which the sheet should snap.


Sheet

The basic sheet widget that can be dragged and scrollled. It can also size itself based on its content or stretched to fill available space.

See also:


PagedSheet

`PagedSheet` manages a stack of pages within a single sheet, enabling navigation between them with transitions. It works seamlessly with Flutter's Navigator API, both imperative (`Navigator.push`) and declarative (go_router, auto_route, etc...). Each page is defined using `PagedSheetPage`, which can have its own specific configuration like `initialOffset`, `snapGrid`, or `scrollConfiguration`. Transitions between pages default to the application's theme but can be customized per-page.

A sheet can be displayed as a modal sheet using ModalSheetRoute for imperative navigation, or ModalSheetPage for declarative navigation.

Furthermore, the modal sheets in the style of iOS 15 are also supported. For imperative navigation, use CupertinoModalSheetRoute, and for declarative navigation, use CupertinoModalSheetPage, respectively.

See also:


SheetPhysics

A physics determines how the sheet will behave when over-dragged or under-dragged, or when the user stops dragging. This is independent of the snapping behavior, which is configured via SheetSnapGrid. There are 2 predefined physics:

See also:


SheetSnapGrid

Determines how the sheet snaps to certain offsets when the user stops dragging or when an animation completes.

There are several predefined snap grid types:

SheetController

Like ScrollController for scrollable widget, the SheetController can be used to animate or observe the offset (position) of a sheet.

See also:


SheetContentScaffold

Simillar to the Scaffold, it offers the slots for a topBar (like AppBar) and a bottomBar (like BottomNavigationBar).

See also:


SheetOffsetDrivenAnimation

Formerly SheetPositionDrivenAnimation, this allows creating animations driven by the sheet's offset. It's a special kind of Animation whose value changes (typically from 0 to 1) as the sheet's offset moves between specified startOffset and endOffset values (defined using SheetOffset). This is useful for synchronizing UI changes (like fades, slides, or color changes) with the sheet's movement.

See also:


SheetNotification

A sheet dispatches a SheetNotification when its offset changes. This can be used to observe the offset and other metrics (like min/max offset, viewport size) of a descendant sheet from an ancestor widget using a NotificationListener.

NotificationListener<SheetNotification>(
  onNotification: (notification) {
    // Access sheet metrics via notification.metrics (e.g., offset, minOffset, maxOffset)
    debugPrint('Current offset: ${notification.metrics.offset}');
    return false; // Return true to stop the notification from bubbling up
  },
  child: SheetViewport( // Required for non-modal sheets
    child: Sheet(
      // ... sheet configuration
    ),
  ),
),

SheetKeyboardDismissBehavior


SheetKeyboardDismissBehavior determines when the sheet should dismiss the on-screen keyboard when dragged. This feature is similar to ScrollViewKeyboardDismissBehavior for scrollable widgets. This behavior is configured via the Sheet.keyboardDismissBehavior property.

Although it is easy to create custom behaviors by implementing the SheetKeyboardDismissBehavior interface, there are predefined behaviors available as static constants for convenience:
