How to Switch Bottom Navigation Items Based on Current URL in webview_flutter

If you’re building a Flutter application with webview functionality, you may want to show different bottom navigation items based on the current URL being displayed. This feature is essential for enhancing user experience and providing relevant navigation options. However, you might encounter some challenges, particularly with widget initialization and accessing the web controller. In this post, we’ll address these issues and guide you through the solution step by step.

The Problem

You are likely facing an issue where an error is thrown, indicating that the _webViewController has not been initialized. This error occurs when you attempt to read the current URL before the WebViewController is ready. Let's break down the specifics to understand this challenge:

Currently Faced Error:

Context: You are trying to determine which bottom navigation items to display based on the current URL in the WebView, but the controller hasn't been set up yet, leading to unexpected behavior.

The Solution

To resolve the issue, we need to ensure that the logic determining which bottom navigation items to show is only executed after the WebViewController has been initialized. Here’s how you can implement this solution:

Step 1: Initialize a State Variable

Create a new boolean state variable that will hold the isStateUrl result. This variable will be set once the web view is created.

Step 2: Update the WebView on Creation

Modify the onWebViewCreated method to set the isStateUrlValue based on the current URL. This ensures that we only access the URL after the controller has been successfully initialized.

Step 3: Use the State Variable in the Bottom Navigation Bar

Now, update your bottom navigation widget to use the new isStateUrlValue variable instead of calling the method directly.

Conclusion

By following the steps outlined above, you’ll be able to dynamically switch bottom navigation items based on the current URL in your webview_flutter application without running into initialization errors. Ensure that all changes are made in tandem with the controller's lifecycle to prevent common pitfalls in state management.
