display toolbar menu only on the home page when using navigational drawer

Question

i have a flutter app which contain a navigational drawer menu. when you click on the drawer, you can navigate to a different page. however, when you navigate to a different page, the toolbar is the same as the previous page which contain the navigational drawer. i have a home page that contain a menu on the toolbar. however, i only want the menu on the home page. if i go to another page, i want the menu to disappear.

here is my code

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:finsec/widget/drawer_widget.dart';
import 'package:finsec/widget/inherited_month_year.dart';
import 'package:finsec/screens/income/second_fragment.dart';

import 'package:finsec/model/month_year.dart';


class HomeScreen extends StatefulWidget {
  final String title = home;
  final Widget child;

  HomeScreen({Key key, this.child}) : super(key: key);

  @override
  _HomeScreenState createState() => _HomeScreenState();
}

class _HomeScreenState extends State<HomeScreen> {
  DateTime selectedDate, initialDate, prevSelectedDate;
  String monthName1;
  int monthNumber, year;
  MonthYear monthYear;

  getDrawerItemWidget(int pos, String title) {
    switch (pos) {
      case 0:
        return new Dashboards ();
      case 1:
        return new SecondFragment();
      case 2:
        return new TransactionList(
          outstanding: totalOutstanding,
          received_or_paid:
          totalReceived, transactionType: title,);
      case 3:
        return new TransactionList(
          outstanding: totalOutstanding,
          received_or_paid: totalPaid,
          transactionType: title,);
      default:
        return new Text("Error");
    }
  }

  String titleAppBar = home;
  int tabIndex = 0;
  double elevation = 0;

  @override
  void initState() {
    setState(() {
      titleAppBar = widget.title;
    });
    super.initState();
    initialDate = DateTime.now();
    selectedDate = initialDate;
  }


  void getMonthYear() {
    if(selectedDate != null) {
      monthName1 = monthNamesAbbrv[selectedDate.month];
      monthNumber = selectedDate.month;
      year = selectedDate.year;
      prevSelectedDate = selectedDate;
    }
    else {
      monthName1 = monthNamesAbbrv[prevSelectedDate.month];
      monthNumber = prevSelectedDate.month;
      year = prevSelectedDate.year;
    }

    monthYear = new MonthYear(monthNumber: monthNumber, year: year) ;
  }

  Widget homeScreen(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(
        title: Text(titleAppBar),
        elevation: elevation,
        backgroundColor: colorPrimary,
        actions: <Widget>[
          Builder(
            builder: (context) => FlatButton.icon(
              icon: Icon(Icons.calendar_today, color: white,), //`Icon` to display
              label: Text(monthName1 + ' $year'  , style: TextStyle(color: white, fontSize: 18)), //`Text` to display
              onPressed: () {
                // DateTime date = new DateTime.now();
                // showMonthPicker(context: context, initialDate: date);
                showMonthPicker(
                    context: context,
                    firstDate: DateTime( DateTime.now().year - 1 , 5),
                    lastDate: DateTime( DateTime.now().year + 1, 9 ),
                    initialDate: selectedDate ?? initialDate
                )
                    .then((date) => setState(() {
                  selectedDate = date ;//!= null ? date : prevSelectedDate;

                }));
              },
            ),
          )
        ],
      ),
      drawer: DrawerWidget((title, index) {
        setState(() {
          titleAppBar = title;
          tabIndex = index;
        });
      }, tabIndex),
      body: getDrawerItemWidget(tabIndex, titleAppBar),
    );
  }


  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    getMonthYear();


    return
      new MaterialApp(
          localizationsDelegates: [
            GlobalMaterialLocalizations.delegate,
            GlobalWidgetsLocalizations.delegate,
          ],
          supportedLocales: [
            Locale('en'),
            Locale('zh'),
            Locale('fr'),
            Locale('es'),
            Locale('de'),
            Locale('ru'),
            Locale('ja'),
            Locale('ar'),
            Locale('fa'),
          ],
          title: widget.title,
          home: homeScreen(context)

      );
  }
}

if you take a look at my code above and check the homeScreen function, you will notice that i have a menu widget under actions: <Widget>[ command. this is the menu that is appearing on the toolbar. when i move to another page using navigational menu, the same menu appear. i want to remove the menu when going to another page. is there a way to tell flutter to only display the menu on the home page? maybe an if statement in actions: part in homeScreen function.

oct 2019 menu appear on toolbar in the home page.

oct 2019 menu appear on toolbar in the income budget screen also. i dont want the menu there. only on homepage screen

You can conditionally tell your builder to destroy the date if the tabIndex is not 0, and create it again if it's 0

      Builder(
        builder: (context) => tabIndex==0 ? //here we check
         FlatButton.icon(
          icon: Icon(Icons.calendar_today, color: white,), //`Icon` to display
          label: Text(monthName1 + ' $year'  , style: TextStyle(color: white, fontSize: 18)), //`Text` to display
          onPressed: () {
            // DateTime date = new DateTime.now();
            // showMonthPicker(context: context, initialDate: date);
            showMonthPicker(
                context: context,
                firstDate: DateTime( DateTime.now().year - 1 , 5),
                lastDate: DateTime( DateTime.now().year + 1, 9 ),
                initialDate: selectedDate ?? initialDate
            )
                .then((date) => setState(() {
              selectedDate = date ;//!= null ? date : prevSelectedDate;

            }));
          },
        ):SizedBox() //if it's not 0 we return an empty widget
      )
