How do I make it so that when I click an icon it opens another page file in flutter? I have this icons which when you click them it redirects you to a url, I want to make it so when you click one specific icon instead of opening a url it opens another page file, acting like a navigator.push...
But when I add an ontap to my taskcard I get an error, I had set the pageUrl = "", but it didn't return anything so I removed the this.required pageUrl and changed to this.pageUrl and now I have this error The parameter 'pageUrl' can't have a value of 'null' because of its type, but the implicit default value is 'null', my code is like this:
import 'dart:ui';
import 'package:url_launcher/url_launcher.dart';
import '';
import 'dart:async';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:schoolmanagement/nav_bar.dart';

const DinningScreen({super.key});

The TaskCard definition is here:
class TaskCard extends StatelessWidget {
final String? imageUrl;
final String? label;
final String pageUrl;
const TaskCard(
{Key? key, this.imageUrl, required this.label, required this.pageUrl})
: super(key: key);
//Function to launch the selected url
Future<void> goToWebPage(String urlString) async {
final Uri _url = Uri.parse(urlString);
if (!await launchUrl(_url)) {
throw 'Could not launch $_url';
}
}
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Padding(
//Here we set the properties of our Sections (Teachers etc)
padding: const EdgeInsets.all(8.0),
child: Column(
children: [
Container(
height: 80.0,
width: 76.1,
decoration: BoxDecoration(
color: Colors.white,
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(20.0),
boxShadow: [
BoxShadow(
color: Colors.grey, blurRadius: 2.0, spreadRadius: 0.5),
]),
child: IconButton(
onPressed: () async {
if(pageUrl !=""){
await goToWebPage(pageUrl);
}
},
icon: Image.asset(
imageUrl ?? "assets/teacher.png",
height: 75.0,
width: 70.0,
),
),
),
SizedBox(
height: 10.0,
),
Text(
label ?? "",
style: TextStyle(fontSize: 16.0),
)
],
),
);
}
}
The parameter 'pageUrl' can't have a value of 'null' because of its type, but the implicit default value is 'null'.
Check whether the pageUrl is an empty String. If it is an empty String, don't call goToWebPage.
onPressed: () async {
if(pageUrl !=""){
await goToWebPage(pageUrl);
}
},
