I have made a minimal example whilst playing with tray-manager library:
import 'dart:io' as io;
import 'package:flutter/material.dart' hide MenuItem;
import 'package:tray_manager/tray_manager.dart';
void main() {
runApp(const MyApp());
}
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
const MyApp({super.key});
// This widget is the root of your application.
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
title: 'Flutter Demo',
theme: ThemeData(
// This is the theme of your application.
//
// Try running your application with "flutter run". You'll see the
// application has a blue toolbar. Then, without quitting the app, try
// changing the primarySwatch below to Colors.green and then invoke
// "hot reload" (press "r" in the console where you ran "flutter run",
// or simply save your changes to "hot reload" in a Flutter IDE).
// Notice that the counter didn't reset back to zero; the application
// is not restarted.
primarySwatch: Colors.blue,
),
home: const MyHomePage(title: 'Flutter Demo Home Page'),
);
}
}
class MyHomePage extends StatefulWidget {
const MyHomePage({super.key, required this.title});
// This widget is the home page of your application. It is stateful, meaning
// that it has a State object (defined below) that contains fields that affect
// how it looks.
// This class is the configuration for the state. It holds the values (in this
// case the title) provided by the parent (in this case the App widget) and
// used by the build method of the State. Fields in a Widget subclass are
// always marked "final".
final String title;
@override
State<MyHomePage> createState() => _MyHomePageState();
}
class _MyHomePageState extends State<MyHomePage> with TrayListener {
int _counter = 0;
void _incrementCounter() {
setState(() {
// This call to setState tells the Flutter framework that something has
// changed in this State, which causes it to rerun the build method below
// so that the display can reflect the updated values. If we changed
// _counter without calling setState(), then the build method would not be
// called again, and so nothing would appear to happen.
_counter++;
});
}
@override
void initState() {
trayManager.addListener(this);
_init();
super.initState();
}
@override
void dispose() {
trayManager.removeListener(this);
super.dispose();
}
void _init() async {
// Add this line to override the default close handler
initSystemTray();
setState(() {});
}
@override
void onTrayIconMouseDown() {
// do something, for example pop up the menu
trayManager.popUpContextMenu();
}
@override
void onTrayIconRightMouseDown() {
// do something
}
@override
void onTrayIconRightMouseUp() {
// do something
}
@override
void onTrayMenuItemClick(MenuItem menuItem) {
if (menuItem.key == 'exitr') {
io.exit(0);
}
}
void initSystemTray() async {
List<MenuItem> items = [
MenuItem.separator(),
MenuItem(
key: 'exit',
label: 'Exit',
),
];
await trayManager.setContextMenu(Menu(items: items));
}
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
// This method is rerun every time setState is called, for instance as done
// by the _incrementCounter method above.
//
// The Flutter framework has been optimized to make rerunning build methods
// fast, so that you can just rebuild anything that needs updating rather
// than having to individually change instances of widgets.
return Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(
// Here we take the value from the MyHomePage object that was created by
// the App.build method, and use it to set our appbar title.
title: Text(widget.title),
),
body: Center(
// Center is a layout widget. It takes a single child and positions it
// in the middle of the parent.
child: Column(
// Column is also a layout widget. It takes a list of children and
// arranges them vertically. By default, it sizes itself to fit its
// children horizontally, and tries to be as tall as its parent.
//
// Invoke "debug painting" (press "p" in the console, choose the
// "Toggle Debug Paint" action from the Flutter Inspector in Android
// Studio, or the "Toggle Debug Paint" command in Visual Studio Code)
// to see the wireframe for each widget.
//
// Column has various properties to control how it sizes itself and
// how it positions its children. Here we use mainAxisAlignment to
// center the children vertically; the main axis here is the vertical
// axis because Columns are vertical (the cross axis would be
// horizontal).
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
children: <Widget>[
const Text(
'You have pushed the button this many times:',
),
Text(
'$_counter',
style: Theme.of(context).textTheme.headline4,
),
],
),
),
floatingActionButton: FloatingActionButton(
onPressed: _incrementCounter,
tooltip: 'Increment',
child: const Icon(Icons.add),
), // This trailing comma makes auto-formatting nicer for build methods.
);
}
}
Upon flutter run
or flutter build
at my Linux Mint 21 (and possibly at Ubuntu 22.04) I was getting the following error:
[ +2 ms] /snap/flutter/current/usr/bin/ld: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libayatana-ido3-0.4.so.0: undefined reference to
`g_time_zone_new_identifier'
(More info on this issue)
The reason why was because by recommendation I have installed the flutter using snap. The snap contain their own sets of libraries, including GLib. Hence Mint21 had different version of Glib installed whilst snap had an older one. (I assume the snap was built upon Ubuntu 20.04)
So I had to install flutter without using snap as I explain in issue's answer.
