YANA - Yet Another Navigation Approach

YANA provides a convenient way to use declarative state-driven testable navigation. It is Navigator 2.0 without rough edges.

Declarative

The declarative approach separates navigation from UI and business logic. No more Navigator.push and Navigator.pop in surprising places.

TreeNavNode buildNavigation(state) => firstOf<AppState>(
      when: always,
      pages: [
        _loginFlow(),
        _authedFlow(),
      ],
    )(state);

_loginFlow() => anyOf<AppState>(
      when: hasNoUser,
      pages: [
        materialPage(
          when: always,
          name: ScreenKeys.authorization,
          builder: (_) => const LoginScreen(),
          onPopPage: () => false,
        )
      ],
    );

_authedFlow() => anyOf<AppState>(
      when: hasUser,
      pages: [
        materialPage(
          when: always,
          name: ScreenKeys.books,
          builder: (_) => const BooksScreen(),
          onPopPage: () => false,
        ),
        materialPage(
          when: hasSelectedBook,
          name: ScreenKeys.bookDetails,
          builder: (_) => const BookDetailsScreen(),
          onPopPage: () => false,
        ),
      ],
    );

State-driven

Always predictable screens based on your state. Thanks to Navigator 2.0!

class AppRouterDelegate {
  TreeNavNode _navNode;
  StreamSubscription<AppState> _storeSubscription;

  AppRouterDelegate(store) {
    _storeSubscription = store.onChange.listen((event) {
      _navNode = buildNavigation(store);
      notifyListeners();
    });
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    final node = _navNode;
    final pages = [...node.pages];

    return Navigator(
      key: navigatorKey,
      pages: pages,
      onPopPage: (route, result) {
        if (node.onPopPage!(route, result)) {
          return route.didPop(result);
        }
        return false;
      },
    );
  }
}

Testable

Simple unit tests guarantee that each state is translated to the expected navigation configuration. Check tests in demos for details.

var pages = buildNavigation(state).pages;

expect(pages, hasLength(1));
expect(pages[0].name, equals(ScreenKeys.authorization));

state.loggedIn = true;
pages = buildNavigation(state).pages;

expect(pages, hasLength(1));
expect(pages[0].name, equals(ScreenKeys.books));

Getting Started

  • Add yana package to your pubspec.yaml
  • Define buildNavigation function
  • Create your AppRouterDelegate that triggers buildNavigation for required state changes
  • Done!

Check examples with redux and provider state management.

Check implementation popUpDialog for inspiration.

Status

  • Production-ready. The library has been used in multiple applications since 2019.
  • You can expect breaking changes before the package reaches 1.0.0 based on community feedback.
