Story view for apps with stories.

🍟 Watch video demo here: story_view demo

👨‍🚀 Demo project here: storyexample

This a Flutter widget to display stories just like Whatsapp and Instagram. Can also be used inline/inside ListView or Column just like Google News app. Comes with gestures to pause, forward and go to previous page.

Features

🕹 Still image, GIF and video support (with caching enabled)

📍 Gesture for pause, rewind and forward

⚜️ Caption for each story item

🎈 Animated progress indicator for each story item

📱 Fullscreen or inline

And useful callback to perform meta functionalities including vertical swipe gestures.

Installation

To use this plugin, add story_view as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file.

Usage

Import the package into your code

import "package:story_view/story_view.dart";

Look inside examples/example.dart on how to use this library. You can copy and paste the code into your main.dart and run to have a quick look.

Basics

Use StoryView to add stories to screen or view heirarchy. StoryView requires a list of StoryItem, each of which describes the view to be displayed on each story page, duration and so forth. This gives you the freedom to customize each page of the story.

There are shorthands provided to create common pages.

StoryItem.text is a shorthand to create a story page that displays only text.

StoryItem.pageImage creates a story item to display images with a caption.

StoryItem.inlineImage creates a story item that is intended to be displayed in a linear view hierarchy like List or Column

🍭 Both .inlineImage and pageImage support animated GIFs.

StoryItem.pageVideo creates a page story item with video media. Just provide your video url and get going.

Story controller, loaders and GIF support

While images load, it'll be a better experience to pause the stories until it's done. To achieve this effect, create a global instance of StoryController and use the shorthand StoryItem.pageImage or StoryItem.inlineImage while passing the same controller instance to it.

...
final controller = StoryController();

@override
Widget build(context) {
  List<StoryItem> storyItems = [
    StoryItem.text(...),
    StoryItem.pageImage(...),
    StoryItem.pageImage(...),
    StoryItem.pageVideo(
      ...,
      controller: controller,
    )
  ]; // your list of stories

  return StoryView(
    storyItems,
    controller: controller, // pass controller here too
    repeat: true, // should the stories be slid forever
    onStoryShow: (s) {notifyServer(s)},
    onComplete: () {},
    onVerticalSwipeComplete: (direction) {
      if (direction == Direction.down) {
        Navigator.pop(context);
      }
    } // To disable vertical swipe gestures, ignore this parameter.
      // Preferrably for inline story view.
  )
}

🍭 Now, tell your users some stories.

story_view's Issues

Start video from beginning on rewind

It would be nice if the current video will be resetted to the beginning if the user taps on the left side of the story. Currently only the progressbar is resetted but the video keeps on playing.

@blackmann story view not working in page view if we want use story_view like instagram

there some glitch that first story plays twice.. and there no given provision to overcome this problem.

Switching between videos

Question - when switching between video stories, are you disposing the previous video controller and initializing a new one every time? Or are you initializing 1 video controller and switching between video sources in the same video controller?

Feature request

Can you provide a way to get the index of the current story item that is being viewed? so that an API request can be made or some action could be done with that item index

Slide down gesture pauses the story

Hi,

I am using your package for both images and videos. I am facing an issue when i swipe up or down on the screen (basically any action apart from tap), the story pauses and never resumes. Is there anyway to not register the swipe as a gesture/action? I.e. the story continues to play even if there is any slide/swipe gesture on the screen?

Thank you !

Unexpected controller behavior

I'm trying to control stories flow through buttons like this:

Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    List<StoryItem> storyItems = [
      StoryItem.text("hello moto", Colors.redAccent),
      StoryItem.pageImage(AssetImage("assets/page2.jpg"),
          imageFit: BoxFit.fitHeight),
    ]; // your list of stories
    
    StoryView story = StoryView(storyItems,
        controller: _controller, // pass controller here too
        repeat: true, // should the stories be slid forever
        onStoryShow: (s) {});

    return new Scaffold(
        body: Stack(children: [
      story,
      Container(
          alignment: Alignment.bottomCenter,
          child: Row(mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center, children: [
            IconButton(
                icon: _playing ? Icon(Icons.pause) : Icon(Icons.play_arrow),
                color: Colors.white70,
                iconSize: 90,
                onPressed: () {
                  setState(() {
                    _playing ? _controller.pause() : _controller.play();
                    _playing = !_playing;
                  });
                })
          ]))
    ]));
  }

And this really works, but the widget becomes broken

Behavior:

• At the launch, widget automatically starts fragments (normal)
• After button pressed, story pauses (normal)
• After button released, story unpauses (normal)
  And there magic begins:
• After pause on none-first story it drop flow to first story and pauses
• After unpause it correctly plays until the end of the first story
• At end, it drops to the start and plays automatically.
• After second pause it drops story to last paused point (first story)

Summary

• Using pause through controller i can't pause stories after first
• Resume after pause drops sequence of stories to start

I took a look to the source, gestures controller uses same methods with listener on playbackState from controller, but i don't understand why hold gesture works fine when button doesn't

Audio Support

Hi, really nice library you guys made. Kuddos

Do you think about adding an audio support? or a universal widget that could take the type of content that we send?

Story pauses on tapping last item

If I have a number of stories in a StoryView and I tap on one of them, it takes me to the next StoryItem.
But it I tap on the last story item, it doesn't close the story view but rather pauses the story.

Add additional action buttons on a story item

How can I add a like / share / comment actions on a story item? Like in Facebook stories.

I created this story view page and added a text field to the page but every time I focus on the text field the story widget goes back to the first one. I even and the controller of pausing once the text field is tapped but it pauses the goes to the first story. How do I solve my problem?

Is StoryView asks for permission to access device storage?

Images not loading on Flutter web

Plugin seems to work on web until version 0.11.5, but on later versions, it gets stuck trying to load an image, shows loading indicator forever. There's no error on console, it fails silently. Flutter version 1.19.0, fails on other versions as well.

Controller is missing controller.next() and controller.previous()

The ability to do controller.next() and controller.previous() would be a nice feature to have.

Video loading state

Hi,
Your package is great and have nice features but I there is no way to check whether a video is fully loaded or not!
and also needs a function that gives the duration of video to set duration variable dynamically.
It is needed to make sure that a video is fully displayed and duration was not passed by a loading state!
thanks.

Asynchronous call on Story Item

I was using your library with firebase, trying to show some story items but i got an error saying that
The getter show was called on null.

_getUserStory() async {
    await Firestore.instance
        .collection('contents')
        .where('isStory', isEqualTo: true)
        .where('user', isEqualTo: widget.userId)
        .getDocuments()
        .then((snap) {
      setState(() {
        _contents = snap.documents
            .map((storyContent) {
          if (storyContent['type'] == "Image") {
            StoryItem.pageImage(
              NetworkImage("https://image.ibb.co/cU4WGx/Omotuo-Groundnut-Soup-braperucci-com-1.jpg"),
            caption:'hola',
            );
          }
        }).toList();
      });
    });
  }


StoryView(
                      _contents,
                      onStoryShow: (s) {
                        print("Showing a story");
                      },

                        print("Completed a cycle");

                      progressPosition: ProgressPosition.top,
                      repeat: false,
                      controller: storyController,

Update rx_dart version

RxDart introduced extension methods with 0.23.1. But story_view depends on 0.22.2. Even with the caret sign (^) dependency resolution is failing because the major version of rx_dart package is still zero and according to semantic versioning this means the package is in initial development phase so even minor version number change is treated as a possible breaking change.

Allow setting initial index

Hey,

Thanks for such a great library but i have a use case where i would need to set starting index of storyview. Actually i will have a bunch of stories like instagram and i want that user can click on stories from any user and can go left to right to another user stories also.

FEATURE : support HLS url for direct streaming

Hi,
Your plugin is awesome ! thx for it !
I'd like to use it to display HLS videos.
It would be great to integrate it.

I prepare you a Pull Request with the code I updated to manage this feature

Customize text of StoryItem.text

Please expose the textStyle of the text supplied to the StoryItem.text to make it customizable.
We should at least have access to the fontStyle property in addition to the fontSize available.

How to show that user profile icon name and timestamp in storyView

In the screenshots and the gif used in README, all consist of a user name Not grey, but I didn't get any option in the package to use this, I need to render username and its profile picture similar as presented in the screenshots.

Add slide gesture

Hi, your plugin is great! is it possible to add a simply drag/slide gesture to switch between images like in instagram?

Get the duration from the actual video duration

This problem is only regarding video stories. There should be a way to specify the video story duration based on the duration of the actual video. For that, I think the videoplayercontroller.value.duration should be used as the default duration for video stories if any duration is not passed explicitly.

What if I have Lists of Images?

I can't just manually copy and paste all the images from my list.

Is there a way on what to put inside StoryView([ "HERE "]?

Adding action overlays to stories

Is it possible to add a widget to see more with your lib?

Enable and disable gestures for inline stories

The gestures feature is very cool especially for page stories.
It will be nice to be able to enable and disable gestures for inline stories to prevent interference when used in a listview.

I hacked it by wrapping it in AbsorbPointer to prevent gestures but it takes away the tap functionality too.

Gifs' speed increased when trying to play story again

Steps to reproduce

1. Open the stories with .gif item.
2. Swipe to gif story.
3. Press back to previous story.
4. Open gif story again => Story play speed is probably x2 now.
5. You can do it again and gif speed will be increased again.

PS: Also noticed, that gifs and images aren't being loaded at flutter dev channel. Spinner is being showed forever. Switched to stable channel worked for me.

By the way your library is perfect, thank you!

Fade in/out between story changes

Right now it seems the stories change instantly.
We should add a parameter for fade duration which defaults to 100ms and animate fade in/out while changing to a new story.
it would look much better to the eye.
take care bro

Feature Proposal for v1

Thanks for making this library and sharing! I need a stories feature in my app and this library is a great starting point. It would be great if I could contribute any improvements to this library so I'd like your thoughts on the feature proposals below.

1. Component separation and abstraction.
   A stories component is essentially the combination of a ViewPager, Progress Bar, Decor Overlays, and Content. Creating well defined separation between those components would make improvements easier and increase customization ability. For example, I'd suggest making the Progress Bar a Decor element with a positioning interface. This would allow greater control of showing the Progress Bar and interactions with other Decor elements such as buttons/toolbars.
2. Extensible StoryItem.
   Allow Story Item to be extended so users can create custom StoryItems.
3. Lazy Loading Widgets.
   More efficiently load widgets.
4. Expose more controller methods.
   Play, pause, previous, next, skip to, etc.
5. Compose Stories from a data model.
   Stories should be able to be displayed via data from a backend.

I look forward to your thoughts!

How to change the time of StoryItem?

Hello.
How can I change the time which is used as duration of every StoryItem?
I want to show user StoryItem with much more information than single text.
Thanks, Matt

Video support

This library is fantastic, but it should support videos. Do you intend to do this in the future?

Ability to pause a story

Should be able to pause a story until an image has finished loading

setState issue

When setState() is called while a story is playing it moves back to the beginning of the list

Is there an option to stop autoplay?

Hey there!
I am trying not to autoplay the staus on load. Is there a way we can do it? Or we need to add a new prop to source code to make it work?

Expose the index of current story being shown

In the onStoryShow method of the StoryView expose the index along side the StoryItem.
So the function signature will be something like:
void Function(StoryItem, index) onStoryShow

I found this very necessary in a project I'm working on. I'm using a model for my stories and them maps each item in the list of models as a story item for StoryView. Obviously only the parameter which is a string will be useful in this case.
But then I'll need to know which StoryItem is currently being shown in order to display something else to the user.

Quick Reactions (Emojis)

Great plugin!

It would be great if you could add Quick Reactions (Emojis) to the stories view like instagram with the same gesture swipe up. That would be great to get feedback from users if upload was nice!

Add our own designed emoji-icons would be awesome!

Thanks

First item is getting played twice in iOS simulator. In Android it works fine.

I have tested this iPhone 11 Pro Max and iPhone 8 Plus simulators. Placing my code below.

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    List<StoryItem> storyItems = _imageUrls.map((imageUrl) {
      return StoryItem.pageImage(CachedNetworkImageProvider(imageUrl));
    }).toList();

    return Scaffold(
      body: Stack(
        children: <Widget>[
          StoryView(
            storyItems,
            controller: controller, // pass controller here too
            repeat: true, // should the stories be slid forever
            onStoryShow: (s) {
              print("onStoryShow->${s.view}");
            },
          ),
          SafeArea(
            child: Column(
              children: <Widget>[
                SizedBox(height: 16,),
                Row(
                  children: <Widget>[
                    IconButton(
                      icon: Icon(Icons.close,color: Colors.white,),
                      onPressed: () {
                        Navigator.pop(context);
                      },
                    )
                  ],
                )
              ],
            ),
          )
        ],
      ),
    );
  }

@blackmann story_view reinitiate when we use bottomsheet with text input or any statefulwidget.

i want to use story_view with bottomsheet and stateful widget in it.

swipe down gesture to dismiss storyview

Just like Instagram & snapchat stories, we need to be able to swipe the screen down and be able to dismiss the page with possibly a fade + scale + translate transition.

Help

Maybe I want it to load when switching between videos?

     StoryItem.pageVideo(
            'url' +
                '${videoList[0]}',
            controller: controller,
            duration: Duration(seconds: 10),
            //caption: 'Desc',
          ),

//Media failed to load --check -- loading ???

Video Loading Time

Hi there, it is not so much of an issue, but i'm just asking if there's a way to make the controller of the story to wait for the video to load, because i'm using firebase storage and sometimes it takes a while to load the video in the story, and because of this, by the time the user sees the video, the controller of the story is already done and it has already change to another story item. I just want to know if there's a way i can tweak it so it wait for the video to be ready.

Feature request: read image and video from file

It can be awesome if read image and video from file path right now only URL can be used for image and video source

Video Duration Problem

Hi,

I am using this awesome plugin but I have got an issue which is that I cant set the duration of the story item according to the duration of the video even though I am using the same controller instance in both of the story view & story item.

I hope you find a solution to this.

Thanks

story_view depends on flutter_cache_manager ^1.2.2 (old version)

I tried to implement the the newest version of flutter_cache_manager in my app, however I got the error message that

"story_view depends on flutter_cache_manager ^1.2.2 while [project] depends on flutter_cache_manager 2.0.0"

Will the dependencies be updated for the story_view package? For now I am gonna use the older version of flutter_cache_manager.
