Custom Property

If predefined Niku property doesn’t have what you looking, you can add one yourself.

Niku widget can be extended with extension.

Property Styling

To create new shorten method, simply extend NikuWidget.

dart
// Your plugin
extension MyShortenProperties on NikuText {
  void get redText => color = Colors.red;

  set customColor(Color color) => color = color;
}

// Then use it
NikuText()
  ..redText
  ..customColor(Colors.blue)

This will create new method for property builder for you to use.

Parent

You can create new parent property by extending Niku and NikuExplictParentBuilder.

dart
extension ApplyToUseParent on Niku {
    void get redBg => _add((w) => ColoredBox(
        color: Colors.red,
        child: w,
    ));
}

extension ApplyToN on NikuExplictParentBuilder {
    void get redBg => _add((w) => ColoredBox(
        color: Colors.red,
        child: w,
    ));
}

// From ApplyToUseParent
n.Box()
    ..useParent((v) => v..redBg);

// From ApplyToN
n.Box()
    ..n.redBg;

By using _add, Niku will add your widget to build queue and optimized it.
