add it to pubspec.yaml
dependencies:
flutter:
sdk: flutter
multiselect: # use latest version
import it
// Imports all Widgets included in [multiselect] package
import 'package:multiselect/multiselect.dart';
Add the DropDownMultiSelect
widget to your build method
// Import multiselct
import 'package:multiselect/multiselect.dart';
class Home extends StatefulWidget {
const Home({Key? key}) : super(key: key);
@override
_HomeState createState() => _HomeState();
}
class _HomeState extends State<Home> {
List<String> selected = [];
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
body: Center(
child: Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.all(20.0),
// DropDownMultiSelect comes from multiselect
child: DropDownMultiSelect(
onChanged: (List<String> x) {
setState(() {
selected =x;
});
},
options: ['a' , 'b' , 'c' , 'd'],
selectedValues: selected,
whenEmpty: 'Select Something',
),
),
));
}
}
And that is it. You will have a working multiselect DropDown with no effort at all.
PS: multiselect is planned to be a collection of multi-select widgets. I will add other functionality based on the needs of the community
