Preview

Getting started

  1. Install the package using the instruction on the installation page.

Usage

A fully working example can be found on Github.

After installing the package displaying BBCode is rather straighforward. When using this code note that you will be using ALL available BBCode parsers.

Widget parsedBBCode = BBCodeText(data: _yourString);

The default style currently used is TextStyle(color: Colors.black, fontSize: 14). This can be overwritten using the defaultStyle parameter.

In order to make the package versatile as possible it’s possible to define your own tags, or overwrite existing ones. To supply your own tag parsers use the optional tagParsers argument.

Additional information

Creating your own tags

You can create your own tags by either extending the StyleTag class or AdvancedTag class. The last one takes care of all BBCode it self. This can be useful in certain situations, but the StyleTag should be sufficient for most style changes.
