Flutter series: wrap in flutter

brief introduction

We are flutter Can contain multiple child Of widget When , We often encounter situations beyond the boundary , Especially in Column and Row Under the circumstances , So do we have any good solutions ？ The answer is what we are going to talk about today Wrap.

Row and Column Plight

Row and Column Can contain more than one child widget, If son widget Beyond the Row perhaps Column What will happen to the scope of ？

We use Row For example ：

  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Row(
      textDirection: TextDirection.ltr,
      mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceEvenly,
      children: [
        YellowBox(),
        YellowBox(),
        Expanded(
          child: YellowBox(),
        ),
        YellowBox(),
      ],
    );
  }

In the example above , We are Row Added a few YellowBox,YellowBox It's a width=100,height=50 The rectangle of ：

  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Container(
      width: 100,
      height: 50,
      decoration: BoxDecoration(
        color: Colors.yellow,
        border: Border.all(),
      ),
    );
  }

Run the above code , We can get such an interface ：

If in Row Add more in YellowBox What effect will it have ？

We're up there Row Add one more yellowBox：

  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Row(
      textDirection: TextDirection.ltr,
      mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceEvenly,
      children: [
        YellowBox(),
        YellowBox(),
        Expanded(
          child: YellowBox(),
        ),
        YellowBox(),
        YellowBox(),
      ],
    );
  }

Run to get the following interface ：

You can see , because Row The son of widget That's too much , It's over Row The scope of the , An error has been reported on the interface .

To solve this problem , You need to use it Wrap Components .

Wrap The component,

Let's start with Wrap The definition of ：

class Wrap extends MultiChildRenderObjectWidget

Wrap Inherited from MultiChildRenderObjectWidget, The representation can contain multiple children child.

Next is Wrap Constructor for ：

  Wrap({
    Key? key,
    this.direction = Axis.horizontal,
    this.alignment = WrapAlignment.start,
    this.spacing = 0.0,
    this.runAlignment = WrapAlignment.start,
    this.runSpacing = 0.0,
    this.crossAxisAlignment = WrapCrossAlignment.start,
    this.textDirection,
    this.verticalDirection = VerticalDirection.down,
    this.clipBehavior = Clip.none,
    List<Widget> children = const <Widget>[],
  }) : assert(clipBehavior != null), super(key: key, children: children);

The constructor lists Wrap Properties commonly used in .

among direction Indicates the arrangement direction of sub components .alignment Represents the way a sub component is aligned with it .spacing Represents the interval between subcomponents .

Follow spacing There's a similar one runSpacing attribute , What's the difference between the two ？ Let's take a concrete example to see .

  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Wrap(
      direction: Axis.horizontal,
      textDirection: TextDirection.ltr,
      children: [
        YellowBox(),
        YellowBox(),
        // Expanded(
        //   child: YellowBox(),
        // ),
        YellowBox(),
        YellowBox(),
        YellowBox(),
      ],
    );

Or the example above , Here we use Wrap To replace Row, Here we use direction Options , Indicates that it is in the horizontal direction Wrap.

And then in children Added in 5 individual YellowBox.

Be careful , Not available here Expanded, Otherwise, an error will be reported , So we put Expanded Commented out , Run to get the following interface ：

You can see YellowBox It is arranged in the direction of the row , If it exceeds the range of one line, it will wrap automatically , This is the same. Wrap The function of .

We are explaining Wrap When , There are also two properties mentioned , Namely spacing and runSpacing. What's the difference between the two ？

Let's take a look at spacing:

  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Wrap(
      direction: Axis.horizontal,
      spacing: 10,
      textDirection: TextDirection.ltr,
      children: [
        YellowBox(),
        YellowBox(),
        // Expanded(
        //   child: YellowBox(),
        // ),
        YellowBox(),
        YellowBox(),
        YellowBox(),
      ],
    );
  }

Let's give it first Wrap add to spacing attribute , Run to get the following interface ：

You can see YellowBox Between is to use spacing For segmentation .

So if we want to Wrap When I change lines , There is also some space between two lines. What should I do ？

It's needed at this time runSpacing The attribute is ：

  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Wrap(
      direction: Axis.horizontal,
      spacing: 10,
      runSpacing: 10,
      textDirection: TextDirection.ltr,
      children: [
        YellowBox(),
        YellowBox(),
        // Expanded(
        //   child: YellowBox(),
        // ),
        YellowBox(),
        YellowBox(),
        YellowBox(),
      ],
    );
  }

Run to get the following interface ：

Wrap It has run perfectly .

summary

Wrap You can use different direction To replace Row perhaps Column, When components may be out of range , You can consider using it Wrap 了 .
