Example

In these example, pageLength is the total of dots to display and currentIndexPage is the position to hightlight (the active dot).

A simple dots indicator

new DotsIndicator(
  numberOfDot: pageLength,
  position: currentIndexPage
)

Custom colors

new DotsIndicator(
  numberOfDot: pageLength,
  position: currentIndexPage,
  dotColor: Colors.black87,
  dotActiveColor: Colors.redAccent
)

Custom size

You can change the default size of dots.
So you can choose to have dots for no active positions and a rounded rectangle for active position for example.
By default, the shape of dots is CircleBorder, so to have a rounded rectangle for active, you need to change dotActiveShape

new DotsIndicator(
  numberOfDot: pageLength,
  position: currentIndexPage,
  dotSize: const Size.square(9.0),
  dotActiveSize: const Size(18.0, 9.0),
  dotActiveShape: RoundedRectangleBorder(borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(5.0))
)

Custom shape

You can change the default shape of dots. By default it's a CircleBorder.
You can change the no active and active dot shape.

new DotsIndicator(
  numberOfDot: pageLength,
  position: currentIndexPage,
  dotShape: const Border(),
  dotActiveShape: RoundedRectangleBorder(borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(5.0))
)

Change the space between dots

By default a dot have a margin of 6 pixels on his left and right. It's EdgeInsets.symmetric(horizontal: 6.0). But if you want you can change it, for example to increase the space between dots or to add top margin.

new DotsIndicator(
  numberOfDot: pageLength,
  position: currentIndexPage,
  dotSpacing: const EdgeInsets.all(10.0)
)
