guard_router 0.0.2

This package is available when you go_router It is a package with a guard function added.

guard_router

guard_router is a Flutter package that extends the functionality of go_router by adding easy-to-use route guards. With guard_router, you can quickly implement authentication checks and conditional navigation without writing extra boilerplate code.

Features

• Page Guard: Easily protect routes with authentication checks or other conditions. If the condition fails, the user is redirected to a specified route.
• Dialog Guard: Display a dialog before navigating to certain routes. Based on the user's response, navigation is either allowed or cancelled.
• Seamless Integration: Re-export go_router's API so you can use all of go_router’s features alongside the added guard functionality.

Getting Started

Installation

Add guard_router as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file:

dependencies:
  flutter:
    sdk: flutter
  guard_router: ^x.y.z

Replace ^x.y.z with the latest version of the package, then run:

flutter pub get

Usage

Import guard_router in your Dart code:

import 'package:guard_router/guard_router.dart';

Page Guard Example

Protect a route by using the withAuthGuard extension. For example, redirect users to the login page if they are not authenticated:

final router = GoRouter(
  routes: [
    GoRoute(
      path: '/protected',
      builder: (context, state) => ProtectedPage(),
    ).withAuthGuard(
      isChecked: () => checkLoginStatus(), // Your authentication check function
      redirectRoute: '/login',
    ),
  ],
);

In this example, if checkLoginStatus() returns false, the user is redirected to the /login route.

Dialog Guard Example

Prompt the user with a confirmation dialog when trying to access a route using the withDialogGuard extension:

final router = GoRouter(
  routes: [
    GoRoute(
      path: '/dialog-protected',
      builder: (context, state) => DialogProtectedPage(),
    ).withDialogGuard(
      isChecked: () => checkCondition(), // Your condition check function
      showDialogGuard: (context) async {
        return await showDialog<bool>(
          context: context,
          builder: (context) => AlertDialog(
            title: const Text('Confirmation Required'),
            content: const Text('Do you wish to proceed?'),
            actions: [
              TextButton(
                onPressed: () => Navigator.of(context).pop(false),
                child: const Text('Cancel'),
              ),
              TextButton(
                onPressed: () => Navigator.of(context).pop(true),
                child: const Text('Proceed'),
              ),
            ],
          ),
        ) ?? false;
      },
    ),
  ],
);

If checkCondition() returns false, the dialog appears. Based on the user's choice (true to proceed, false to cancel), navigation will continue or be halted.
