AdaptiveCards for Flutter

Adaptive Cards for Flutter

A Flutter implementation of Adaptive Cards.

Installing

Put this into your pubspec.yaml

dependencies:
  flutter_adaptive_cards:
    git:
      url: https://github.com/neohelden/Flutter-AdaptiveCards

Using

Using Adaptive Cards in Flutter coudn't be simpler: All you need is the AdaptiveCard widget.

There are several constructors which handle data loading from different sources.

AdaptiveCard.network takes a url to download the payload and display it. AdaptiveCard.asset takes an asset path to load the payload from the local data. AdaptiveCard.memory takes a map (which can be obtained but decoding a string using the json class) and displays it.

An example:

AdaptiveCard.network(
  placeholder: Text("Loading, please wait"),
  url: "www.someUrlThatPoints.To/A.json",
  hostConfigPath: "assets/host_config.json",
  onSubmit: (map) {
    // Send to server or handle locally
  },
  onOpenUrl: (url) {
    // Open url using the browser or handle differently
  },
  // If this is set, a button will appear next to each adaptive card which when clicked shows the payload.
  // NOTE: this will only be shown in debug mode, this attribute does change nothing for realease builds.
  // This is very useful for debugging purposes
  showDebugJson: true,
  // If you have not implemented explicit dark theme, Adaptive Cards will try to approximate its colors to match the dark theme
  // so the contrast and color meaning stays the same.
  // Turn this off, if you want to have full control over the colors when using the dark theme.
  // NOTE: This is currently still under development
  approximateDarkThemeColors: true,
);

Running the tests

Simply type

flutter test

and to update the golden files run

flutter test --update-goldens test/sample_golden_test.dart

This updates the golden files for the sample cards.

About this project

We decided to build a Flutter implementation of Adaptive Cards because we believe in the future of both technologies. With Flutter, we found an exciting framework for ultra-fast and cross-platform UI development. And with Adaptive Cards, we can combine that with an industry standard for exchanging card content in a structured way. At Neohelden, we're building on both of these technologies with our AI-assistant for business – and you can learn more about why we built this in our blog-post on the release of our Adaptive Cards in Flutter library.
