How to create number input field in Flutter?

Solution 1:

You can specify the number as keyboardType for the TextField using:

keyboardType: TextInputType.number

Check my main.dart file

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter/services.dart';

void main() => runApp(new MyApp());

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    // TODO: implement build
    return new MaterialApp(
      home: new HomePage(),
      theme: new ThemeData(primarySwatch: Colors.blue),
    );
  }
}

class HomePage extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  State<StatefulWidget> createState() {
    return new HomePageState();
  }
}

class HomePageState extends State<HomePage> {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return new Scaffold(
      backgroundColor: Colors.white,
      body: new Container(
          padding: const EdgeInsets.all(40.0),
          child: new Column(
        mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
        children: <Widget>[
          new TextField(
            decoration: new InputDecoration(labelText: "Enter your number"),
            keyboardType: TextInputType.number,
            inputFormatters: <TextInputFormatter>[
    FilteringTextInputFormatter.digitsOnly
], // Only numbers can be entered
          ),
        ],
      )),
    );
  }
}

Solution 2:

For those who are looking for making TextField or TextFormField accept only numbers as input, try this code block :

for flutter 1.20 or newer versions

TextFormField(
  controller: _controller,
  keyboardType: TextInputType.number,
  inputFormatters: <TextInputFormatter>[
    FilteringTextInputFormatter.allow(RegExp(r'[0-9]')),
  ],
  decoration: InputDecoration(
    labelText: "whatever you want",
    hintText: "whatever you want",
    icon: Icon(Icons.phone_iphone)
  )
)

for earlier versions of 1.20

TextFormField(
    controller: _controller,
    keyboardType: TextInputType.number,
    inputFormatters: <TextInputFormatter>[
        WhitelistingTextInputFormatter.digitsOnly
    ],
    decoration: InputDecoration(
        labelText:"whatever you want", 
        hintText: "whatever you want",
        icon: Icon(Icons.phone_iphone)
    )
)
