I've just created a package for add basic actions to the current keyboards .

You can take a look here :

https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/keyboard_actions

Usage :

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

     //...
      FocusNode _nodeText1 = FocusNode();
      FocusNode _nodeText2 = FocusNode();
      FocusNode _nodeText3 = FocusNode();
      FocusNode _nodeText4 = FocusNode();
      FocusNode _nodeText5 = FocusNode();

     @override
      Widget build(BuildContext context) {
        return Scaffold(
          appBar: AppBar(
            title: Text("Keyboard Actions Sample"),
          ),
          body: FormKeyboardActions(
            keyboardActionsPlatform: KeyboardActionsPlatform.ALL, //optional
            keyboardBarColor: Colors.grey[200], //optional
            nextFocus: true, //optional
            actions: [
              KeyboardAction(
                focusNode: _nodeText1,
              ),
              KeyboardAction(
                focusNode: _nodeText2,
                closeWidget: IconButton(
                  icon: Icon(Icons.close),
                  onPressed: () {},
                ),
              ),
              KeyboardAction(
                focusNode: _nodeText3,
                onTapAction: () {
                  showDialog(
                      context: context,
                      builder: (context) {
                        return AlertDialog(
                          content: Text("Custom Action"),
                          actions: <Widget>[
                            FlatButton(
                              child: Text("OK"),
                              onPressed: () => Navigator.of(context).pop(),
                            )
                          ],
                        );
                      });
                },
              ),
              KeyboardAction(
                focusNode: _nodeText4,
                displayCloseWidget: false,
              ),
              KeyboardAction(
                focusNode: _nodeText5,
                closeWidget: Padding(
                  padding: EdgeInsets.all(5.0),
                  child: Text("CLOSE"),
                ),
              ),
            ],
            child: Padding(
              padding: const EdgeInsets.all(15.0),
              child: SingleChildScrollView(
                child: Column(
                  crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.stretch,
                  children: <Widget>[
                    TextField(

                    ),
                    TextField(
                      keyboardType: TextInputType.text,
                      focusNode: _nodeText2,
                      decoration: InputDecoration(
                        hintText: "Input Text with Custom Close Widget",
                      ),
                    ),
                    TextField(
                      keyboardType: TextInputType.number,
                      focusNode: _nodeText3,

                      ),
                    ),
                    TextField(
                      keyboardType: TextInputType.text,
                      focusNode: _nodeText4,
                      decoration: InputDecoration(

              ),
            ),
          ),
        );
      }

Answer 3

Change

keyboardType: TextInputType.number

to

keyboardType: TextInputType.numberWithOptions(signed: true, decimal: true)

Answer 4

There is no done button in iOS but we can check the length of the input and clear focus to hide the numberpad keyboard. Implement like below,(it'll work with fix length of number value)

onChanged: (val) {
        if (val.length == 10) { //10 is the length of the phone number you're allowing
          FocusScope.of(context).requestFocus(FocusNode());
        }
      }

Answer 5

You don't need a done button just wrap MaterialApp with a GestureDetector

GestureDetector(
  behavior: HitTestBehavior.opaque,
  onTap: () {
    FocusScopeNode currentFocus = FocusScope.of(context);

    if (!currentFocus.hasPrimaryFocus &&
        currentFocus.focusedChild != null) {
      FocusManager.instance.primaryFocus.unfocus();
    }
  },
  child: MaterialApp(
     title: "My title",
     home:MyHomeScreen(),
     ),
);
