How to call a provider from a Hero widget - Flutter - flutter

I'm transferring an input form, from my "home" widget to a popup card (which opens with a Hero widget). One of the "dropdown" boxes in that form, contains names of users registered in a FireBase database.
Before the transferring, the forms are working just fine. however, after, when I click on the button which opens the popup card, the app freezes and I get this error:
Code for the main widget/stream provider here:
void main() async {
WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
await Firebase.initializeApp(
options: DefaultFirebaseOptions.currentPlatform,
);
runApp(const Hyttekos());
}
class Hyttekos extends StatelessWidget {
const Hyttekos({Key? key}) : super(key: key);
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return StreamProvider<MyUser?>.value(
initialData: null,
value: AuthService().user,
child: const MaterialApp(
home: Wrapper(),
),
);
}
}
Code for the widget looks like this:
class addActivityPopupCard extends StatefulWidget {
List<String> membersToShow = [];
addActivityPopupCard({required this.membersToShow});
#override
State<addActivityPopupCard> createState() => _addActivityPopupCardState();
}
class _addActivityPopupCardState extends State<addActivityPopupCard> {
dynamic _dropDownActivity;
String? _dropDownMember;
List<String> activities = [
"Pil og Boge",
"Politisk Ukorrekt",
"Kortspel",
];
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
var board = Provider.of<List<MyUser?>>(context);
List<MyUser?> members = [];
for (var user in board) {
members.add(user);
}
return Center(
child: Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.all(32.0),
child: Hero(
tag: _heroAddTag,
createRectTween: (begin, end) {
return RectTween(begin: begin, end: end);
},
child: Material(
color: Colors.white,
elevation: 2,
shape:
RoundedRectangleBorder(borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(20)),
child: SingleChildScrollView(
child: Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.all(16.0),
child: Column(
mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min,
children: [
DropdownButton<String>(
value: _dropDownActivity,
onChanged: _dropDownCallActivity,
items: activities.map((String value) {
return DropdownMenuItem(
value: value,
child: Text(value),
);
}).toList(),
),
// Members
Builder(builder: (context) {
return DropdownButton<String>(
value: _dropDownMember,
onChanged: _dropDownCallMember,
items: members.map((MyUser? value) {
return DropdownMenuItem(
value: value?.uid ?? "",
child: Text(value?.name ?? ""),
);
}).toList(),
);
}),
],
),
),
),
),
),
),
);
}
void _dropDownCallActivity(String? selectedValue) {
if (selectedValue is String) {
setState(() {
_dropDownActivity = selectedValue;
});
}
print(_dropDownActivity);
}
void _dropDownCallMember(String? selectedValue) {
if (selectedValue is String?) {
setState(() {
_dropDownMember = selectedValue;
});
}
print(_dropDownMember);
}
}

The problem is in your Hyttekos class
Read this link to use the correct format of the stream provider
https://pub.dev/packages/streams_provider
This must look like this
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return StreamProvider<MyUser?>.value(
initialData: null,
value: AuthService().user,
builder: (context, child) {
// return widget here based on selector stream emits
},
);
}

pass value between bottomNavigationBar views

How am I supposed to pass a value in this big mess called Flutter?
30 years old php global $var wasn't good?
All these years were to come up with setState, passed in a controller which get redeclared as a key inside a stateful widget that receive the value from a Navigator?
By the way, I tried using Navigator.push but it seems to open a completely new window, the value is there but I'd need it to show in the tab body not in a new window, below is my code:

How am I supposed to pass a value in this big mess called Flutter?
With state management tools like InheritedWidget, InheritedModel, Provider, BloC and many more.
30 years old php global $var wasn't good? All these years were to come up with setState, passed in a controller which get redeclared as a key inside a stateful widget that receive the value from a Navigator?
Well, you shouldn't do that and it's not meant to be done like that. We can use several methods to propagate data down the widget tree. Let me explain this with InheritedWidget. But sometimes you want to go for Provider which is a wrapper class for InheritedWidget.
First we create a class named QRListModel which extends InheritedModel:
class QRListModel extends InheritedWidget {
final List<Barcode> qrList = []; // <- This holds our data
QRListModel({required super.child});
#override
bool updateShouldNotify(QRListModel oldWidget) {
return !listEquals(oldWidget.qrList, qrList);
}
static QRListModel of(BuildContext context) {
final QRListModel? result = context.dependOnInheritedWidgetOfExactType<QRListModel>();
assert(result != null, 'No QRListModel found in context');
return result!;
}
}
updateShouldNotify is a method we have to override to tell Flutter, when we want the widgets to rebuild. We want this to happen when the list changes. The of method is just a handy way to access the QRListModel.
Now wrap a parent widget of both the scan tab view and the list tab view inside QRListModel. We go for HomeView:
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
title: 'Flutter App',
theme: ThemeData(
visualDensity: VisualDensity.adaptivePlatformDensity,
),
home: QRListModel(child: HomeView()), // <- here!
);
}
}
We can take any parent widget but it should be a class where we don't call setState. Otherwise our QRListModel also gets rebuilt and our list is gone.
Now we can access QRListModel from anywhere inside the subtree. We need it here:
void _onQRViewCreated(QRViewController controller) {
setState(() {
this.controller = controller;
this.controller!.resumeCamera();
});
controller.scannedDataStream.listen((scanData) async {
controller.pauseCamera();
QRListModel.of(context).qrList.add(scanData); // <- Here we access the list
await showDialog(
context: context,
builder: (context) => SimpleDialog(
title: Text("Barcode was added!"),
children: [
Text(scanData.code!)
],
)
);
});
}
And here we read the list:
class SecondView extends StatelessWidget {
const SecondView({Key? key, required this.res}) : super(key: key);
final String? res;
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return ListView.builder(
itemCount: QRListModel.of(context).qrList.length,
itemBuilder: (context, index) {
return Card(
child: ListTile(
title: Text(QRListModel.of(context).qrList[index].code ?? "NO"),
),
);
}
);
}
}
Now both pages have access to the qr list. Please do mind that a InheritedWidget can only have final fields. So if you need mutable fields, you need an additional wrapper class. We don't need it as we don't change the list but only its elements.
By the way: You shouldn't call setState inside initState. You did this here:
class _HomeViewState extends State<HomeView> {
final tabs = [QRViewExample(), SecondView(res: '')];
int _currentIndex = 0;
#override
void initState() {
setState(() {}); // <- Don't call setState inside initState!
super.initState();
}

How to refresh data after returning to a screen in flutter

I have the following cart screen which contains the address fields. When a user wants to update their address, they click on Update button, which takes them to the address screen where they can update the address. Although when the back button is clicked to return back to the cart screen,the print function shows the updated value but the UI still shows the old value.
class CartScreen extends StatefulWidget {
static const routeName = '/cart';
#override
_CartScreenState createState() => _CartScreenState();
}
class _CartScreenState extends State<CartScreen> {
Future _addressFuture;
String value = 'deliver';
var address;
void initState() {
_addressFuture = _obtainAddressFuture();
super.initState();
}
Future _obtainAddressFuture() async {
address = await Provider.of<Addresses>(context, listen: false).fetchMyAddress();
}
void didChangeDependencies() async {
print('inside didchange');
super.didChangeDependencies();
}
#override
void dispose() {
super.dispose();
}
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
print('Rebuild cart');
return GestureDetector(
child: Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(
title: Text('Your Cart'),
),
body: FutureBuilder(
future: _addressFuture,
builder: (ctx, dataSnapshot) {
if (dataSnapshot.error != null) {
print('Data snapshot error is ' +
dataSnapshot.error.toString());
return Center(
child: Text('Something went wrong!'),
);
} else if (dataSnapshot.connectionState ==
ConnectionState.waiting) {
return Center(
child: Loading(),
);
} else {
return Container(
child: SingleChildScrollView(
child: Column(
children: [
Card(
margin: EdgeInsets.symmetric(
horizontal: 15,
vertical: 4,
),
child: Column(
children: [
Row(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.end,

)));
}
})));
}
void _awaitReturnValueFromSecondScreen(BuildContext context) async {
// start the SecondScreen and wait for it to finish with a result

How do I activate button if at least one checkbox is selected? - Flutter

I have an alert dialog that displays a series of check boxes.
I am trying to ensure that if at least one of the checkboxes is selected, the confirm button is enabled, otherwise, if no checkbox is selected, it appears as inactive.
I have a parent and a child widget, both statefull. In one of them I have the button that should be enabled / disabled, and in the other one I have the content of the alert dialog.
The challenge for me has been to notify the parent widget from the child widget, that the flag variable with which I determine whether the button should be active or not, has been updated.
I have tried sending a function to the child widget that it executes, also with ValueSetter and ValueChanged, but so far without success.
If after activating or inactivating one of the checkboxes, I do a hot reload, the button is also updated. So I think it may be something with setState that I am not taking into account.
This is what I have done so far, ready to copy and paste into dartPad.
Thanks for your help.

In your example you need something which rebuilds the button, when the value of canConfirm changes. You could use a ValueListenableBuilder. Therefore you have to make canConfirm a ValueNotifier.
Here is the working example:
import 'package:flutter/foundation.dart';

}
}
class FrequencySelectionPage extends StatefulWidget {
FrequencySelectionPage();
#override
_FrequencySelectionPageState createState() => _FrequencySelectionPageState();
}
class _FrequencySelectionPageState extends State<FrequencySelectionPage> {
late ValueNotifier<bool> canConfirm;
#override
void initState() {
canConfirm = ValueNotifier(false);
super.initState();
}
void setCanConfirm(bool value) {
canConfirm.value = value;
}
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(

child: ListTile(
leading: Icon(Icons.calendar_today),

),
);
}
void _showDialog(BuildContext context) {
final double screenSize = MediaQuery.of(context).size.height;
showDialog(

barrierDismissible: false,
builder: (BuildContext context) {
return AlertDialog(
title: Text("Choose days"),
content: Container(
width: 200,
height: screenSize * 0.60,
child: ShowAlertContent(setCanConfirm: setCanConfirm),
),
actions: <Widget>[
SizedBox(
width: screenSize * 0.50,
child: Row(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.end,
children: [
TextButton(
onPressed: () {
Navigator.of(context).pop();
},
child: Text('Cancel'),
),
SizedBox(
height: 20.0,
width: 20.0,
),
ValueListenableBuilder<bool>(
valueListenable: canConfirm,
builder: (context, value, child) {
return ElevatedButton(
child: Text('Confirm'),
onPressed: (value == false)
? null
: () {
Navigator.of(context).pop();
},
);
},
),
],
),
)
],
);
},
);
}
}

I don’t know about your case but ummmm.. I think this one maybe a lot easier
`bool _isChecked = false;
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Column(
children: [

PushNamed issue: Type 'FillData' (a Statefulwidget) is not a subtype of type 'List<Object>'

I'm new in Flutter. I'm trying to push a List from NewData to FillData screen with pushNamed. But it said:
The following _TypeError was thrown while handling a gesture:
type 'FillData' is not a subtype of type 'List'
If i remove the comment in '/FillData', i receive null data instead. What should i do?
This is my code:
SettingNavigator
class SettingNavigator extends StatelessWidget {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
initialRoute: '/',
routes: {
'/': (context) => Home(),
'/NewData': (context) => NewData(),
// '/FillData': (context) => FillData(), (in comment)
}
onGenerateRoute: (setting) {
if (setting.name == '/FillData') {
final ChartGroupData chartName = setting.arguments;
final List<ChartGroupData> groupNames = setting.arguments;
return MaterialPageRoute(builder: (context) {
return FillData(
chartName: chartName,
gName: groupNames,

return null;

You have 2 problems with your code:
1- you cant user routes with onGenerateRoute, because now the app doesn't know where to go, to the widget that you didn't pass anything to (inside routes) or to the widget inside the onGenerateRoute.
2- arguments is a general object that you can put whatever you want inside of it, and doing this:
final ChartGroupData chartName = setting.arguments; final
List groupNames = setting.arguments;
passes the same value to two different objects, I solved this by doing the following (it's not the best but will give you a rough idea of what you should do)
created a new object that contains the data to be passed:
class ObjectToPass {
final ChartGroupData chartName;
final List<ChartGroupData> groupNames;
ObjectToPass({this.chartName, this.groupNames});
}
changed FillData implementation:
class FillData extends StatefulWidget {
final ObjectToPass objectToPass;
FillData({Key key, #required this.objectToPass}) : super(key: key);
#override
FillDataStage createState() => FillDataStage();
}
...
void _showDialog() {
showDialog(
context: context,
builder: (context) {
return AlertDialog(
title: Text("Received Data"),
content: Text(widget.objectToPass.chartName.toString()),
);
},
);
}
void _onTapPrintReceivedData() {
print(widget.objectToPass.groupNames);
print(widget.objectToPass.chartName);
}
to navigate to FillData you would:
Navigator.pushNamed(
context,
'/FillData',
arguments: ObjectToPass(
chartName: ChartGroupData(_nameCtrl.text),
groupNames: groupNames,
),
);
finally this is how your MaterialApp should look like:
return MaterialApp(
initialRoute: '/NewData',
onGenerateRoute: (setting) {
if (setting.name == '/FillData') {
return MaterialPageRoute(builder: (context) {
return FillData(
objectToPass: setting.arguments,
);
});
} else if (setting.name == '/NewData') {
return MaterialPageRoute(builder: (_) => NewData());
}
return null;
},
);
you can pass a list instead of the object I created and get your objects from it by it's index.

How to populate a form from a listview on tap in flutter

I have a form widget, a list widget, and a "wrapper" widget or in other words, a parent/container widget. So to give an idea of the widget tree, it is as such.
Parent/Container Widget
Form Widget
Button Widget
List Widget
Notice that the form, buttons and list widget are all siblings, inside of the parent/container widget. What I want to happen, is tap on a list item in the list widget, and populate the form widget with the data that gets passed from the list widget.
Here is my parent widget.
import 'package:andplus_flutter_7_gui/model/user.dart';
import 'package:andplus_flutter_7_gui/services/user_service.dart';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:rxdart/rxdart.dart';
import 'crud_form.dart';
import 'crud_list.dart';
class Crud extends StatefulWidget {
Crud({Key key, this.title}) : super(key: key);
final String title;
_CrudContainerState createState() => _CrudContainerState();
}
class _CrudContainerState extends State<Crud> {
List<User> users;
User user = User();
UserService userService;
#override
void initState() {
super.initState();
if (userService == null) {
userService = UserService(user);
}
}
#override
void dispose() {
// TODO: implement dispose
super.dispose();
userService.dispose();
}
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Material(
child: Scaffold(
resizeToAvoidBottomPadding: false,
appBar: AppBar(
title: Text(widget.title),
),
body: Builder(
builder: (context) => Column(
mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.max,
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
children: <Widget>[
Expanded(
flex: 2,
child: StreamBuilder(
builder: (context, AsyncSnapshot<User> snapshot) {
return CrudForm(
user: snapshot.data,
onUserAdded: (user) {
userService.addUser(user);
},
);
},
stream: userService.userObservable,
),
),
Expanded(
child: Text("Future button widget"),
),
Expanded(
flex: 3,
child: StreamBuilder(
builder: (ctx, AsyncSnapshot<List<User>> snap) {
return CrudList(
onUserSelected: userService.userSelected,
users: snap.data,
);
},
stream: userService.usersObservable,
),
),
],
),
),
),
);
}
void onEditUser(User user) {
setState(() {
user = user;
});
}
}
The above widget wraps the three widgets I mentioned.
Here are the children widget:
Form:
import 'package:andplus_flutter_7_gui/model/user.dart';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
class CrudForm extends StatefulWidget {
CrudForm({Key key, this.onUserAdded, this.user}) : super(key: key);
final User user;
final void Function(User user) onUserAdded;
_CrudFormState createState() => _CrudFormState(user: user);
}
class _CrudFormState extends State<CrudForm> {
_CrudFormState({this.user});
User user = User();
var _key = GlobalKey<FormState>();
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Container(
child: Builder(
builder: (context) => Container(
color: Colors.blueAccent[100],
child: Form(
key: _key,
child: Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.only(left: 8.0),
child: Column(
mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min,
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.start,
children: <Widget>[
Row(
children: <Widget>[
Text(
"First Name",
style: TextStyle(fontSize: 20),
),
Expanded(
child: Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.all(8.0),
child: TextFormField(
initialValue: widget.user?.firstName == null ||
widget.user.firstName.isEmpty
? user.firstName
: widget.user.firstName,
validator: (value) {
if (value.isEmpty) {
return "First name is required";
}
return null;
},
onSaved: (value) {
setState(() {
user.firstName = value;
});
},
),
),
)
],
),
Row(
children: <Widget>[
Text(
"Last Name",
style: TextStyle(fontSize: 20),
),
Expanded(
child: Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.all(8.0),
child: TextFormField(
validator: (value) {
if (value.isEmpty) {
return "Last name is required";
}
return null;
},
onSaved: (value) {
setState(() {
user.lastName = value;
});
},
),
),
),
],
),
RaisedButton(
child: Text(
"Save",
),
splashColor: Colors.blueGrey,
onPressed: () {
if (!_key.currentState.validate()) {
return;
}
_key.currentState.save();
widget.onUserAdded(
new User(
firstName: user.firstName,
lastName: user.lastName,
),
);
},
)
],
),
),
),
),
),
);
}
}
Here is my list widget.
import 'package:andplus_flutter_7_gui/model/user.dart';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
class CrudList extends StatefulWidget {
CrudList({Key key, this.users, this.onUserSelected}) : super(key: key);
final List<User> users;
final SelectUser onUserSelected;
_CrudListState createState() => _CrudListState();
}
class _CrudListState extends State<CrudList> {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Container(
color: Colors.green,
child: ListView.builder(
itemCount: widget.users?.length ?? 0,
itemBuilder: (BuildContext context, int index) {
var user = widget.users[index];
return ListTile(
key: Key(index.toString()),
title: Center(
child: Text(
"${user.firstName} ${user.lastName}",
style: TextStyle(color: Colors.white),
),
),
onTap: () {
print("${widget.users[index]} $index");
widget.onUserSelected(widget.users[index]);
},
);
},
),
);
}
}
typedef void SelectUser(User user);
And just for further context, here is my user service, responsible for adding the objects to the stream, and using the stream builder within rxdart to notify of state changes.
import 'package:andplus_flutter_7_gui/model/user.dart';
import 'package:rxdart/rxdart.dart';
class UserService {
User _editedUser = User();
List<User> _users = <User>[];
BehaviorSubject<User> _userSubject;
BehaviorSubject<List<User>> _usersSubject;
UserService(this._editedUser) {
_userSubject = BehaviorSubject<User>.seeded(_editedUser);
_usersSubject = BehaviorSubject<List<User>>.seeded(_users);
}
Observable<List<User>> get usersObservable => _usersSubject.stream;
Observable<User> get userObservable => _userSubject.stream;
addUser(User user) {
_users.add(user);
_usersSubject.add(_users);
}
dispose() {
_userSubject.close();
_usersSubject.close();
}
void userSelected(User user) {
_editedUser = user;
_userSubject.add(_editedUser);
}
}
What am I missing? It looks like my widget rebuilds, and tries to set the initial value in the form when I tap the user in the list widget. But the actual field doesn't get updated and I'm not sure why.
I'd appreciate any documentation or articles on how to better approach data and state management between sibling widgets within the flutter framework.
Here's a similar use case that I tried to implement locally. What I'm doing here is I generate TextFormFields dynamically and assign TextEditingController.
Column textField(int n) {
List<Widget> listForm = [];
while (n > 0) {
var textEditingController = TextEditingController();
listForm.add(
TextFormField(
controller: textEditingController,
onTap: () {
_selectedField = textEditingController;
},
),
);
n--;
}
return Column(children: listForm);
}
Clicking a ListView item updates the text of the currently selected TextFormField.
InkWell(
onTap: () {
debugPrint('Selected $index!');
if (_selectedField != null) {
_selectedField!.value = TextEditingValue(text: 'Item $index');
}
},
child: ListTile(
title: Text('Item $index'),
),
);
