Im trying to create tic tac toe game, but im getting some logical error when Im trying to use
provider method.
in the home page i have column containing three widget. first for player scores , second for gird layout, third for winner result.
i did some research and i found out using provider calss is the best option to send data from a widget to another.
import 'package:flutter/cupertino.dart';
import 'package:tictactoe/widgets/scores.dart';
import '../widgets/layout.dart';
// import '../widgets/scores.dart';
class GameProvider with ChangeNotifier {
bool oTrue = true;
List displayXO = ['', '', '', '', '', '', '', '', ''];
String resultDetection = 'hey';
int oScores = 0;
int xScores = 0;
int failedScores = 0;
checkWinner() {
// checking 1 row
if ((displayXO[0] == displayXO[1]) &&
(displayXO[0] == displayXO[2]) &&
displayXO[0] != '') {
resultDetection = 'player ' + displayXO[0] + 'wins';
print('$resultDetection');
}
// checking 2 row
if ((displayXO[3] == displayXO[4]) &&
(displayXO[3] == displayXO[5]) &&
(displayXO[3] != '')) {
resultDetection = 'player ' + displayXO[3] + 'wins';
}
// checking 3 row
if ((displayXO[6] == displayXO[7]) &&
(displayXO[6] == displayXO[8]) &&
(displayXO[6] != '')) {
resultDetection = 'player ' + displayXO[6] + 'wins';
}
// checking 1 column
if ((displayXO[0] == displayXO[3]) &&
(displayXO[0] == displayXO[6]) &&
(displayXO[0] != '')) {
resultDetection = 'player ' + displayXO[0] + 'wins';
}
// checking 2 column
if ((displayXO[1] == displayXO[4]) &&
(displayXO[1] == displayXO[7]) &&
(displayXO[1] != '')) {
resultDetection = 'player ' + displayXO[1] + 'wins';
}
// checking 3 column
if ((displayXO[2] == displayXO[5]) &&
(displayXO[2] == displayXO[8]) &&
(displayXO[2] != '')) {
resultDetection = 'player ' + displayXO[2] + 'wins';
}
// checking 1 axis
if ((displayXO[6] == displayXO[4]) &&
(displayXO[6] == displayXO[2]) &&
(displayXO[6] != '')) {
resultDetection = 'player ' + displayXO[6] + 'wins';
}
// checking 2 axis
if ((displayXO[0] == displayXO[4]) &&
(displayXO[0] == displayXO[8]) &&
(displayXO[0] != '')) {
resultDetection = 'player ' + displayXO[0] + 'wins';
}
notifyListeners();
}
set upgrateScores(String winner) {
if (winner == 'O') {
oScores++;
} else if (winner == 'X') {
xScores++;
}
print('$oScores, $xScores');
notifyListeners();
}
get winnerfunction => checkWinner();
// get upgrarate => upgrateScores();
get result => resultDetection;
}
and this is my great layout

I have cards which are getting scrolled successfully through a Page Controller and animate to Page. Now my issue is that even though it is iterated correctly, if I scroll myself to the right or left it leaves me back at the starting position aka _currentPage=0. I want the system to know dynamically that if 0 is the starting position and I have scrolled manually to the 3rd position, I want it to go to the 4th position and not start at the 0th position again. Similarly, if I have scrolled backwards to the 6th position I want it to go forward from where I scrolled not back to 0. Is there a way to achieve this dynamically?
Please refer to the Timer.periodic code I tried adding a gesture Detector but that wouldn't work the program would not scroll at all.

First, have a variable to feed the page view index like pageViewIndex
Initialise the PageController in the initState method with the pageViewIndex
Then in the PageView's onPageChanged method do setState for the pageViewIndex and animate the PageController to the (new) pageViewIndex
Hope that should do.
Comment down if any other help is needed.
I am trying to write a date input control which accepts a date like 23/12/1997. What I would like it to do is automatically insert the / characters for the user. So as they type in 23 the listener returns 23/, so that they can then type in 12. At this point the listener again adds a / leaving the user to complete the date by typing 1997.
My TextEditingController code half works and looks like this:
final _controller = TextEditingController();
_controller.addListener(() {
String text = _controller.text;
if (text.length == 2) {
text += '/';
}
if (text.length == 5) {
text += '/';
}
_controller.value = _controller.value.copyWith(
text: text,
selection:
TextSelection(baseOffset: text.length, extentOffset: text.length),
composing: TextRange.empty,
);
print(_controller.text);
}
So it works fine until the user makes a mistake and needs to backtrack. As soon as a / is deleted it is immediately replaced stopping any further editing of the date.
In order to get it to work I need to access is the previously entered text to determine if the user is backspacing. So if text == 23/ && previous_text == 23/1 then I can remove the / from text.
I found this question textfield must only accept numbers and I think it may help me, but I am not sure how to implement an existing widget and override its methods. Of course there may be a simpler way to do this within the TextEditingController?
I have found what I needed to solve my date validation input. It is not perfect, but it is good enough for what I am trying to do. All I needed was to look at the inputFormatters method of a TextField(). This allow manipulation of the input text to put it into any number of user-defined formats. I am including a segment of my code for anyone who would like to try it out:
class _DateFormatter extends TextInputFormatter {
#override
TextEditingValue formatEditUpdate(
TextEditingValue prevText, TextEditingValue currText) {
int selectionIndex;
// Get the previous and current input strings
String pText = prevText.text;
String cText = currText.text;
// Abbreviate lengths
int cLen = cText.length;
int pLen = pText.length;
if (cLen == 1) {
// Can only be 0, 1, 2 or 3
if (int.parse(cText) > 3) {
// Remove char
cText = '';
}
} else if (cLen == 2 && pLen == 1) {
// Days cannot be greater than 31
int dd = int.parse(cText.substring(0, 2));
if (dd == 0 || dd > 31) {
// Remove char
cText = cText.substring(0, 1);
} else {
// Add a / char
cText += '/';
}
} else if (cLen == 4) {
// Can only be 0 or 1
if (int.parse(cText.substring(3, 4)) > 1) {
// Remove char
cText = cText.substring(0, 3);
}
} else if (cLen == 5 && pLen == 4) {
// Month cannot be greater than 12
int mm = int.parse(cText.substring(3, 5));
if (mm == 0 || mm > 12) {
// Remove char
cText = cText.substring(0, 4);
} else {
// Add a / char
cText += '/';
}
} else if ((cLen == 3 && pLen == 4) || (cLen == 6 && pLen == 7)) {
// Remove / char
cText = cText.substring(0, cText.length - 1);
} else if (cLen == 3 && pLen == 2) {
if (int.parse(cText.substring(2, 3)) > 1) {
// Replace char
cText = cText.substring(0, 2) + '/';
} else {
// Insert / char
cText =
cText.substring(0, pLen) + '/' + cText.substring(pLen, pLen + 1);
}
} else if (cLen == 6 && pLen == 5) {
// Can only be 1 or 2 - if so insert a / char
int y1 = int.parse(cText.substring(5, 6));
if (y1 < 1 || y1 > 2) {
// Replace char
cText = cText.substring(0, 5) + '/';
} else {
// Insert / char
cText = cText.substring(0, 5) + '/' + cText.substring(5, 6);
}
} else if (cLen == 7) {
// Can only be 1 or 2
int y1 = int.parse(cText.substring(6, 7));
if (y1 < 1 || y1 > 2) {
// Remove char
cText = cText.substring(0, 6);
}
} else if (cLen == 8) {
// Can only be 19 or 20
int y2 = int.parse(cText.substring(6, 8));
if (y2 < 19 || y2 > 20) {
// Remove char
cText = cText.substring(0, 7);
}
}
selectionIndex = cText.length;
return TextEditingValue(
text: cText,
selection: TextSelection.collapsed(offset: selectionIndex),
);
}
}
To use it simply call it from the Textfield() as shown below. I've also incorporated two built in methods as well. WhitelistingTextInputFormatter() to only allow digits and a slash(/) character to be entered and LengthLimitingTextInputFormatter() to restrict the number of characters allowed. The latter could be achieved using the maxLength parameter of TextField() but it is here by way of example. Note that there is also a BlacklistingTextInputFormatter() which does as you would expect.
WhitelistingTextInputFormatter was removed use FilteringTextInputFormatter.allow(RegExp("[0-9-]")), to replace, and If you want to change split symbol (current is "/"), Pls add it to RegExp(....).
TextField(
// maxLength: 10,
keyboardType: TextInputType.datetime,
controller: _controllerDOB,
focusNode: _focusNodeDOB,
decoration: InputDecoration(
hintText: 'DD/MM/YYYY',
counterText: '',
),
inputFormatters: [
WhitelistingTextInputFormatter(RegExp("[0-9/]")),
LengthLimitingTextInputFormatter(10),
_DateFormatter(),
],
),
You can use datepicker dialog made by flutter.
DateTime _date = DateTime.now()
onPressed: () {
showDatePicker(
context: context,
initialDate: _date,
firstDate: DateTime(2020),
lastDate: DateTime(2021),
).then((date) {
setState(() {
_date = date;
});
});
},
I find your code to be a great utility, without any dependencies. I took the liberty to do a few mods and thought of posting it back here, as I find your concept very neat and lightweight on the UI. The requirements were;
Validating the date for non-31-day months and leap years. The mods were quite straightforward.
Preventing the user entering "/" at undesirable places which will throw the algorithm off-track. The simplest solution is to make the
keyboardType: TextInputType.number, in the TextField
This works perfectly for mobile devices.
But Flutter being cross-platform, this solution may not be foolproof when it comes to a device with physical keyboard. I tried various checks and blocks but only partially succeeded; i.e, user can still input "/" in between the digits of the Day and Month. I think there is an internal delay between KB input and programmatic formatter.
Following is the modified code for _DateFormatter. I have used the /// notion to distinguish my comments. They should be read along with the original // comments.
class _DateFormatter extends TextInputFormatter {
#override
TextEditingValue formatEditUpdate(
TextEditingValue prevText, TextEditingValue currText) {
int selectionIndex;
String date;
String month;
int year;
// Get the previous and current input strings
String pText = prevText.text;
String cText = currText.text;
cText = cText.replaceAll("//", "/");
// Abbreviate lengths
int cLen = cText.length;
int pLen = pText.length;
/// ENTERING THE DATE
if (cLen == 1) {
/// User enters the first digit of the date. The first digit
// Can only be 0, 1, 2 or 3
if (int.parse(cText) > 3) {
// Remove char
cText = '';
}
} else if (cLen == 2 && pLen == 1) {
/// User has already entered a valid first digit of the date, now he
/// enters the second digit of the date; but
// Days cannot be greater than 31
int dd = int.parse(cText.substring(0, 2));
if (dd == 0 || dd > 31) {
// Remove char
cText = cText.substring(0, 1);
} else {
/// User has entered a valid date (between 1 and 31). So now,
// Add a / char
cText += '/';
}
/// ENTERING THE MONTH
} else if (cLen == 4) {
/// after entering a valid date and programmatic insertion of '/', now User has entered
/// the first digit of the Month. But, it
// Can only be 0 or 1
/// (and, not '/' either)

I found one solution for this, But not an optimized solution, but it is covering almost all the scenarios,
forward slash during adding fields
remove the forward slash on clearing fields
in between editing handling... etc

We can Use our custom formator as in inputFormatters like below
TextField(
// maxLength: 10,
keyboardType: TextInputType.datetime,
controller: _controllerDOB,
focusNode: _focusNodeDOB,
decoration: InputDecoration(
hintText: 'DD/MM/YYYY',
counterText: '',
),
inputFormatters: [
WhitelistingTextInputFormatter(RegExp("[0-9/]")),
LengthLimitingTextInputFormatter(10),
CustomDateTextFormatter(),
],
),

How to display the number "123456789" as "123 456 789" in TextFormfield?
TextFormField(
controller: _numberId,
keyboardType: TextInputType.number,
),
I write below extention on String :
extension StringSeprate on String {
String stringSeparate(
{int count = 3, String separator = ",", bool fromRightToLeft = true}) {
if (this.isEmpty) {
return "";
}
if (count < 1) {
return this;
}
if (count >= this.length) {
return this;
}
var str = this.replaceAll(separator, "");
if (fromRightToLeft) {
str = String.fromCharCodes(str.runes.toList().reversed);
}
var chars = str.runes.toList();
var namOfSeparation =
(chars.length.toDouble() / count.toDouble()).ceil() - 1;
var separatedChars = List(chars.length + namOfSeparation.round());
var j = 0;
for (var i = 0; i < chars.length; i++) {
separatedChars[j] = String.fromCharCode(chars[i]);
if (i > 0 && (i + 1) < chars.length && (i + 1) % count == 0) {
j += 1;
separatedChars[j] = separator;
}
j += 1;
}
return fromRightToLeft
? String.fromCharCodes(separatedChars.join().runes.toList().reversed)
: separatedChars.join();
}
}
final code (copy below code in your file and call it from main for test):
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter/services.dart';
class TestWidget extends StatelessWidget {
TextEditingController _textEditingController = TextEditingController();
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
backgroundColor: Colors.grey[200],
body: Center(
child: Column(
mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min,
children: [
TextField(
controller: _textEditingController,
inputFormatters: [
TextInputFormatter.withFunction((oldValue, newValue) =>
TextEditingValue(
text: newValue.text.stringSeparate(
separator: ' ', fromRightToLeft: false)))
],
onChanged: (String value) {
if (value == null) return;
_textEditingController.selection = TextSelection.fromPosition(
TextPosition(
offset: value.length, affinity: TextAffinity.upstream));
},
),
],
),
),
);
}
}
extension StringSeprate on String {
String stringSeparate(
{int count = 3, String separator = ",", bool fromRightToLeft = true}) {
if (this.isEmpty) {
return "";
}
if (count < 1) {
return this;
}
if (count >= this.length) {
return this;
}
var str = this.replaceAll(separator, "");
var chars = str.runes.toList();
var namOfSeparation =
(chars.length.toDouble() / count.toDouble()).ceil() - 1;
var separatedChars = List(chars.length + namOfSeparation.round());
var j = 0;
for (var i = 0; i < chars.length; i++) {
separatedChars[j] = String.fromCharCode(chars[i]);
if (i > 0 && (i + 1) < chars.length && (i + 1) % count == 0) {
j += 1;
separatedChars[j] = separator;
}
j += 1;
}
return fromRightToLeft
? String.fromCharCodes(separatedChars.join().runes.toList().reversed)
: separatedChars.join();
}
}
result is like :
I am looking for an example of an inputformatter for text field that will be a date mm/dd/yyyy, what I am trying to do as the user types update the format. For instance user starts to type mm and the / is put in, then when the dd is typed in the / is put in.
Anyone done this or have an example? I have done it in other languages but could not find a similar way to do in flutter/dart.
This is what I have tried so far, but can not get the logic correct. Any ideas?
class _DateFormatter extends TextInputFormatter {
#override
TextEditingValue formatEditUpdate(
TextEditingValue oldValue,
TextEditingValue newValue
) {
final int newTextLength = newValue.text.length;
int selectionIndex = newValue.selection.end;
int usedSubstringIndex = 0;
final StringBuffer newText = new StringBuffer();
if (newTextLength == 2) {
newText.write(newValue.text.substring(0, 2) + '/ ');
if (newValue.selection.end == 3)
selectionIndex+=3;
}
if (newTextLength == 5) {
newText.write(newValue.text.substring(0, 5) + '/ ');
if (newValue.selection.end == 6)
selectionIndex += 6;
}
// Dump the rest.
if (newTextLength >= usedSubstringIndex)
newText.write(newValue.text.substring(usedSubstringIndex));
return new TextEditingValue(
text: newText.toString(),
selection: new TextSelection.collapsed(offset: selectionIndex),
);
}
}
Thanks
I was struggling with this too. I ended up with the following not so elegant solution:
class DateInputTextField extends StatefulWidget {
#override
State<StatefulWidget> createState() {
return _DateInputTextFieldState();
}
}
class _DateInputTextFieldState extends State<DateInputTextField> {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return TextField(
keyboardType: TextInputType.number,
inputFormatters: [DateTextFormatter()],
onChanged: (String value) {},
);
}
}
class DateTextFormatter extends TextInputFormatter {
#override
TextEditingValue formatEditUpdate(TextEditingValue oldValue, TextEditingValue newValue) {
//this fixes backspace bug
if (oldValue.text.length >= newValue.text.length) {
return newValue;
}
var dateText = _addSeperators(newValue.text, '/');
return newValue.copyWith(text: dateText, selection: updateCursorPosition(dateText));
}
String _addSeperators(String value, String seperator) {
value = value.replaceAll('/', '');
var newString = '';
for (int i = 0; i < value.length; i++) {
newString += value[i];
if (i == 1) {
newString += seperator;
}
if (i == 3) {
newString += seperator;
}
}
return newString;
}
TextSelection updateCursorPosition(String text) {
return TextSelection.fromPosition(TextPosition(offset: text.length));
}
}
Here is an improved version based on Jochem Toolenaar answer. This version will automatically remove the forward slashes for you and limit the user to 8 digits.
class DateTextFormatter extends TextInputFormatter {
static const _maxChars = 8;
#override
TextEditingValue formatEditUpdate(
TextEditingValue oldValue, TextEditingValue newValue) {
var text = _format(newValue.text, '/');
return newValue.copyWith(text: text, selection: updateCursorPosition(text));
}
String _format(String value, String seperator) {
value = value.replaceAll(seperator, '');
var newString = '';
for (int i = 0; i < min(value.length, _maxChars); i++) {
newString += value[i];
if ((i == 1 || i == 3) && i != value.length - 1) {
newString += seperator;
}
}
return newString;
}
TextSelection updateCursorPosition(String text) {
return TextSelection.fromPosition(TextPosition(offset: text.length));
}
}
Adding an updated version based on Arizona1911 and Jochem Toolenaar versions.
This one prevents the caret from jumping when modifying some of the text that was already typed.
class DateTextFormatter extends TextInputFormatter {
static const _maxChars = 8;
#override
TextEditingValue formatEditUpdate(
TextEditingValue oldValue,
TextEditingValue newValue,
) {
String separator = '/';
var text = _format(
newValue.text,
oldValue.text,
separator,
);
return newValue.copyWith(
text: text,
selection: updateCursorPosition(
oldValue,
text,
),
);
}
String _format(
String value,
String oldValue,
String separator,
) {
var isErasing = value.length < oldValue.length;
var isComplete = value.length > _maxChars + 2;
if (!isErasing && isComplete) {
return oldValue;
}
value = value.replaceAll(separator, '');
final result = <String>[];
for (int i = 0; i < min(value.length, _maxChars); i++) {
result.add(value[i]);
if ((i == 1 || i == 3) && i != value.length - 1) {
result.add(separator);
}
}
return result.join();
}
TextSelection updateCursorPosition(
TextEditingValue oldValue,
String text,
) {
var endOffset = max(
oldValue.text.length - oldValue.selection.end,
0,
);
var selectionEnd = text.length - endOffset;
return TextSelection.fromPosition(TextPosition(offset: selectionEnd));
}
}
Thanks to caseyryan/flutter_multi_formatter
In the above solution, I found one overlapping problem with editing in between dates ( if try to edit the month field, the year values get overlapping)
So, I found one solution for this, But not an optimized solution, but it is covering almost all the scenarios,
1. forward slash during adding fields
2. remove the forward slash on on clearing fields
3. between editing handling
...etc
