show snack bar in flutter code example

Example 1: how to show snackbar in flutter

You can show material design snackbars using the following code:

Scaffold.of(context).showSnackBar(SnackBar(
      content: Text("New Notification"),
    ));
   
In some cases, this will throw an error and it can be resolved using a workaround:

//Declare a GlobalKey
GlobalKey<ScaffoldState> _scaffoldKey = GlobalKey<ScaffoldState>();

//Assing this key to the scaffold
Scaffold(
  key: _scaffoldKey,
  body: ...
)

//finally in the topmost code use this key in the following way
_scaffoldKey.showSnackBar(SnackBar(
      content: Text("New Notification"),
    ));

Example 2: snackbar in flutter

final snackBar = SnackBar(content: Text('Yay! A SnackBar!'));

// Find the ScaffoldMessenger in the widget tree
// and use it to show a SnackBar.
ScaffoldMessenger.of(context).showSnackBar(snackBar);
