How to display Dialog in Flutter without a Buildcontext inside a HookWidget

Malith Kuruppu

How do I show a showDialog without a Buildcontext in the sample code given below which has within a class that extends a HookWidget?

Currently, I am getting an Undefined name 'context'.

I am using the following package for state management of my app:

flutter_hooks: ^0.10.0
hooks_riverpod: ^0.3.0

Sample Code:

class HomeScreen extends HookWidget {
  static String routeName = "/home";

  PageController _pageController = PageController(initialPage: 1);

  dynamic balanceAvailable = 0.0;
  List<TransactionModel> transactionList = [];

  _onRefresh(DragEndDetails details) async {
    showDialog(
        context: context,
        builder: (BuildContext context) {
          return Center(
            child: SizedBox(
              height: MediaQuery.of(context).size.height / 4,
              width: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width / 2,
              child: CircularProgressIndicator(
                valueColor: new AlwaysStoppedAnimation<Color>(Colors.blue),
              ),
            ),
          );
        });
    await Future.delayed(const Duration(seconds: 2));

    Navigator.pop(context);
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: GestureDetector(
        onVerticalDragEnd: _onRefresh,
        child: PageView(
          controller: _pageController,
          children: [
            MenuScreen(),
            HomeBody(
              value: balanceAvailable,
            ),
            TransactionScreen(
              transactionList: transactionList,
              value: balanceAvailable,
            ),
          ],
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}

You can copy paste run full code below
You can pass context to _onRefresh
Step 1: _onRefresh(DragEndDetails details, BuildContext context)
Step 2: onVerticalDragEnd: (details) => {_onRefresh(details, context)},
