Captain #

an imperative way to navigate declaratively

Placing it in the widget tree #

place the Captain()widget at the same postition inside your widget tree where your Router or Navigator widget would reside. Best practice is placing the main Router beneath the Material/Cupertino/WidgetsApp like:

...
    MaterialApp(
        home: Captain(
            pages: ...,
            ...
        ),
    ),

Navigate with Captain #

Captain supports imperative navigation style by complying to the Navigator.of(context) format

Use either:

• .action(Object actionKey)for invoking predefined actions that have been registered to the Captain Widget
• .actionFunc(List<Page> Function(List<Page>)) which takes a List

Example #

Navigator.of(context).action("myActionKey");
Navigator.of(context).actionFunc((pageStack) => pageStack..add(pageToAdd));
