PressableBox

A widget that builds on Flutter's interactivity foundation to provide a pressable area with customizable style and behavior.

It is designed as a flexible and style-friendly alternative to the traditional InkWell or GestureDetector widgets.

With PressableBox, you can apply visual changes when user interactions like pressing or focusing occur, and integrate these seamlessly into your styled components.

Usage

To use PressableBox, simply wrap your widget with it and specify the interaction callbacks you're interested in, along with any styles you wish to apply:

PressableBox(
style: Style(
  backgroundColor.blue(),
    onPressed(
      backgroundColor.red(),
    ),
    onHover(
      backgroundColor.green(),
    ),
  ),
onPress: () => print('Pressed!'),
child: StyledText('Press Me'),
);

In the example above, the PressableBox will apply a blue background color to the child StyledText by default, and a red background color when the user presses on it (and a green background color when the user hovers over it, if the platform supports it). The onPress callback will also be invoked when the user presses on the PressableBox.

Interaction States

PressableBox integrates with various context variant utilities that apply styles based on different widget states and gestures. Here are a few of the interaction states and their corresponding styling hooks:

onPress: Styles applied when the widget is being pressed.
onLongPress: Styles applied when the widget is being long-pressed.
onDisabled: Styles applied when the widget is disabled and therefore non-interactive.
onEnabled: Styles applied when the widget is enabled and interactive.
onFocus: Styles applied when the widget gains focus.
onHover: Styles applied when a pointer has hovered over a widget.
