Now you can use SideMenu as a widget in your code.

3. use SideMenu

At first you should defind a list of item that will displayed on SideMenu:

<div class="highlight highlight-source-dart position-relative" data-snippet-clipboard-copy-content="List items = [
SideMenuItem(
// Priority of item to show on SideMenu, lower value is displayed at the top
priority: 0,
title: ‘Dashboard’,
onTap: () => page.jumpToPage(0),
icon: Icons.home,
),
SideMenuItem(
priority: 1,
title: ‘Settings’,
onTap: () => page.jumpToPage(1),
icon: Icons.settings,
),
SideMenuItem(
priority: 2,
title: ‘Exit’,
onTap: () {},
icon: Icons.exit_to_app,
),
];
“>

List<SideMenuItem> items = [
  SideMenuItem(
    // Priority of item to show on SideMenu, lower value is displayed at the top
    priority: 0,
    title: 'Dashboard',
    onTap: () => page.jumpToPage(0),
    icon: Icons.home,
  ),
  SideMenuItem(
    priority: 1,
    title: 'Settings',
    onTap: () => page.jumpToPage(1),
    icon: Icons.settings,
  ),
  SideMenuItem(
    priority: 2,
    title: 'Exit',
    onTap: () {},
    icon: Icons.exit_to_app,
  ),
];
priority rule:

  • Priority value should be unique

After that you need to warp your main page to a row and then add SideMenu as first child of that, like below:

PageController page = PageController();
Row(
  mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.start,
  children: [
    SideMenu(
      // page controller to manage a PageView
      controller: page,
      // will shows on top of all items, it can be a logo or a Title text
      title: Image.asset('assets/images/easy_sidemenu.png'),
      // will show on bottom of SideMenu when displayMode was SideMenuDisplayMode.open
      footer: Text('demo'),
      // List of SideMenuItem to show them on SideMenu
      items: items,
    ),
    Expanded(
      child: PageView(
        controller: page,
        children: [
          Container(
            child: Center(
              child: Text('Dashboard'),
            ),
          ),
          Container(
            child: Center(
              child: Text('Settings'),
            ),
          ),
        ],
      ),
    ),
  ],
),
