there is a dark/light theme toggle function in this snap of code. There is no error when I compile, debuging this code. But It doesn't work.
For example, I never define scaffoldbackgroundColor(0xfffafafa) and What I define color in dark, light theme is Color(0xFFE7626C) and Color(0xFF232B55). But ios simulator only show me backgroundcolor(0xfffafafa).
When I click toggle button, the screen never changes. What's wrong with my code...
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:pomodoro_app/widget/sidebar_widget.dart';
class HomeScreen extends StatefulWidget {
const HomeScreen({super.key});
@override
State<HomeScreen> createState() => _HomeScreenState();
}
class _HomeScreenState extends State<HomeScreen> {
static final ValueNotifier<ThemeMode> themeNotifier =
ValueNotifier(ThemeMode.dark);
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return ValueListenableBuilder<ThemeMode>(
valueListenable: themeNotifier,
builder: (_, ThemeMode currentMode, __) {
return MaterialApp(
title: 'Flutter Demo',
debugShowCheckedModeBanner: false,
theme: ThemeData(
brightness: Brightness.light,
scaffoldBackgroundColor: const Color(0xFFE7626C),
textTheme: const TextTheme(
displayLarge: TextStyle(
color: Color(0xFF232B55),
),
displaySmall: TextStyle(
color: Color(0xFF232B55),
),
),
cardColor: const Color(0xFFF4EDDB),
),
darkTheme: ThemeData(
brightness: Brightness.dark,
scaffoldBackgroundColor: const Color(
0xFF232B55,
),
cardColor: const Color(0xFFF4EDDB),
textTheme: const TextTheme(
displayLarge: TextStyle(
color: Color(0xFFE7626C),
),
displaySmall: TextStyle(
color: Colors.white,
),
),
),
themeMode: currentMode,
home: Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(
backgroundColor: Theme.of(context).scaffoldBackgroundColor,
elevation: 0,
leading: Builder(
builder: (context) => IconButton(
onPressed: () => Scaffold.of(context).openDrawer(),
icon: const Icon(
Icons.menu_rounded,
color: Color(0xFFF4EDDB),
),
),
),
actions: [
IconButton(
icon: Icon(themeNotifier.value == ThemeMode.light
? Icons.dark_mode
: Icons.light_mode),
onPressed: () {
setState(
() {
themeNotifier.value =
themeNotifier.value == ThemeMode.light
? ThemeMode.dark
: ThemeMode.light;
},
);
},
),
],
),
drawer: const SideBar(),
backgroundColor: Theme.of(context).scaffoldBackgroundColor,
body: Column(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
children: const [
Text(
"Hello",
)
],
),
),
);
},
);
}
}
That's because the context
you are using with
Theme.of(context);
comes from the build method of _HomeScreenState
.
So this context
is above the MaterialApp
which has the Theme
.
You have to use a context
that is bellow the MaterialApp
.
One way to do it is to add a Builder
in between your MaterialApp
and Scaffold
:
return MaterialApp(
title: 'Flutter Demo',
theme: // ...
darkTheme: // ...
themeMode: currentMode,
home: Builder( // <- Insert a builder here.
builder: (context) { // <- Now you'll be using this `context` which is below the `MaterialApp` (and your themes) in the widget tree, so you'll be able to use them.
return Scaffold(
// ...
);
},
);
