Flutter EasyLoading

🌐 English | 简体中文

A lightweight, customizable loading, progress, result, and toast overlay for Flutter. Display calls do not require a BuildContext.

• Loading, determinate progress, result states, and toast messages
• Global calls without passing a BuildContext
• Built-in indicators, custom widgets, and custom transitions
• Global defaults with immutable per-call overrides
• Material and Cupertino application support

🧰 Requirements

• Dart 3.6.0 or later, below Dart 4.0.0
• Flutter 3.27.0 or later

Read the 4.0 migration guide before upgrading from 3.x.

📦 Installation

flutter pub add flutter_easyloading

Or add the dependency manually:

dependencies:
flutter_easyloading: ^4.0.2

import'package:flutter_easyloading/flutter_easyloading.dart';

🚀 Quick Start

Install one EasyLoading Host at the root MaterialApp or CupertinoApp:

MaterialApp(
builder:EasyLoading.init(),
home:constHomePage(),
);

Display and dismiss content from anywhere after the Host is mounted:

awaitEasyLoading.show(status:'Loading...');
awaitEasyLoading.showProgress(0.5, status:'Downloading...');
awaitEasyLoading.showSuccess('Completed');
awaitEasyLoading.showError('Request failed');
awaitEasyLoading.showInfo('Update available');
awaitEasyLoading.showToast('Saved');
awaitEasyLoading.dismiss();

All display and dismissal methods return Future<void> and can be awaited.

If the application already has a root builder, compose it through init:

MaterialApp(
builder:EasyLoading.init(
builder: (context, child) =>ExistingRoot(child: child),
),
home:constHomePage(),
);

🎛️ Per-call Options

EasyLoadingOptions is an immutable snapshot for one display call. Every field is optional and inherits the corresponding global value when omitted.

Group	Supported fields
Appearance	loadingStyle, indicatorType, animationStyle, backgroundColor, boxShadow
Indicator and progress	indicatorSize, indicatorColor, progressColor, progressWidth, lineWidth
Text	textAlign, textStyle, textColor, fontSize, textPadding
Layout	alignment, constraints, contentPadding, radius
Animation	animationDuration, customAnimation
Mask and interaction	maskColor, userInteractions

maskType, dismissOnTap, and duration remain direct method parameters. toastPosition is a direct parameter of showToast.

awaitEasyLoading.show(
status:'Uploading',
maskType:EasyLoadingMaskType.black,
duration:constDuration(seconds:10),
options:constEasyLoadingOptions(
loadingStyle:EasyLoadingStyle.auto,
alignment:AlignmentDirectional.topEnd,
