Grouped list package for Flutter.

Pub CI

A flutter ListView in which list items can be grouped to sections.

Features

  • List Items can be separated in groups.
  • For the groups an individual header can be set.
  • Almost all fields from ListView.builder available.

Getting Started

Add the package to your pubspec.yaml:

grouped_list: ^3.4.0

In your dart file, import the library:

import 'package:grouped_list/grouped_list.dart';

Instead of using a ListView create a GroupedListView Widget:

 GroupedListView<dynamic, String>(
   elements: _elements,
   groupBy: (element) => element['group'],
   groupSeparatorBuilder: (String groupByValue) => Text(groupByValue),
   itemBuilder: (context, dynamic element) => Text(element['name']),
   order: GroupedListOrder.ASC,
 ),

Parameters:

Name Description Required Default value
elements A list of the data you want to display in the list required -
groupBy Function which maps an element to its grouped value required -
itemBuilder / indexedItemBuilder Function which returns an Widget which defines the item. indexedItemBuilder provides the current index as well. If both are defined indexedItemBuilder is preferred yes, either of them -
groupSeparatorBuilder / groupHeaderBuilder Function which returns an Widget which defines the group headers. While groupSeparatorBuilder gets the groupBy-value as parameter groupHeaderBuilder gets the whole element. If both are defined groupHeaderBuilder is preferred yes, either of them -
useStickyGroupSeparators When set to true the group header of the current visible group will stick on top no false
floatingHeader Whether the sticky group header float over the list or occupy it's own space no false
stickyHeaderBackgroundColor Defines the background color of the sticky header. Will only be used if useStickyGroupSeparators is used no Color(0xffF7F7F7)
separator A Widget which defines a separator between items inside a group no no separator
order  Change to GroupedListOrder.DESC to reverse the group sorting no GroupedListOrder.ASC

Also the fields from ListView.builder can be used.
