I want to pass a text value from my NFC tag to a variable, but want to remove the locale from the text passed to the variable (note, not remove it from the tag).
I am using the nfc_manager package.
Here is the code portion I am using that relates to scanning the tag:
NfcManager.instance.startSession(
onDiscovered: (NfcTag tag) async {
final ndef = Ndef.from(tag);
String tagRecordText = String.fromCharCodes(ndef!.cachedMessage!.records[0].payload);
NfcManager.instance.stopSession();
}
)
The first byte is the length of the characters of the language string
So this should work (my dart is not that good)
var payload = ndef!.cachedMessage!.records[0].payload;
var sub = payload.sublist(payload[0]+ 1);
String tagRecordText = String.fromCharCodes(sub);

For interaction with an API, I need to pass the course code in <string><space><number> format. For example, MCTE 2333, CCUB 3621, BTE 1021.
Yes, the text part can be 3 or 4 letters.
Most users enter the code without the space, eg: MCTE2333. But that causes error to the API. So how can I add a space between string and numbers so that it follows the correct format.
You can achieve the desired behaviour by using regular expressions:
void main() {
String a = "MCTE2333";
String aStr = a.replaceAll(RegExp(r'[^0-9]'), ''); //extract the number
String bStr = a.replaceAll(RegExp(r'[^A-Za-z]'), ''); //extract the character
print("$bStr $aStr"); //MCTE 2333
}
Note: This will produce the same result, regardless of how many whitespaces your user enters between the characters and numbers.
Try this.You have to give two texfields. One is for name i.e; MCTE and one is for numbers i.e; 1021. (for this textfield you have to change keyboard type only number).
After that you can join those string with space between them and send to your DB.
It's just like hack but it will work.
Scrolling down the course codes list, I noticed some unusual formatting.
Example: TQB 1001E, TQB 1001E etc. (With extra letter at the end)
So, this special format doesn't work with #Jahidul Islam's answer. However, inspired by his answer, I manage to come up with this logic:
var code = "TQB2001M";
var i = course.indexOf(RegExp(r'[^A-Za-z]')); // get the index
var j = course.substring(0, i); // extract the first half
var k = course.substring(i).trim(); // extract the others
var formatted = '$j $k'.toUpperCase(); // combine & capitalize
print(formatted); // TQB 1011M
Works with other formats too. Check out the DartPad here.
Here is the entire logic you need (also works for multiple whitespaces!):
void main() {
String courseCode= "MMM 111";
String parsedCourseCode = "";
if (courseCode.contains(" ")) {
final ensureSingleWhitespace = RegExp(r"(?! )\s+| \s+");
parsedCourseCode = courseCode.split(ensureSingleWhitespace).join(" ");
} else {
final r1 = RegExp(r'[0-9]', caseSensitive: false);
final r2 = RegExp(r'[a-z]', caseSensitive: false);
final letters = courseCode.split(r1);
final numbers = courseCode.split(r2);
parsedCourseCode = "${letters[0].trim()} ${numbers.last}";
}
print(parsedCourseCode);
}
Play around with the input value (courseCode) to test it - also use dart pad if you want. You just have to add this logic to your input value, before submitting / handling the input form of your user :)
I would like to access an index of a string (e.g. 'Hello') and print it to the app (e.g. letter 'o'). This string has to be the input of the user.
This can be easily done using Python but I have to use Flutter/Dart in order to do it (mobile development).
Here is just an example of how this would be solve using Python:
my_word = input("Insert your word here: ")
print(my_word[4])
Use TextField to retrieve user's input:
A text field lets the user enter text, either with hardware keyboard
or with an onscreen keyboard.
Use Text to display the string that you retrieve:
The Text widget displays a string of text with single style.
Use the [] (index) operator to get the character at the index you specify:
final str = "Hello World";
print(str[4]); // Prints o
You can try split the string's letters in an array first.
my_word.split('')[4]
main() {
String val = "hello";
print(val[4]);
}
How to display Unicode Smiley from json response dynamically in flutter. It's display properly when i declare string as a static but from dynamic response it's not display smiley properly.
Static Declaration: (Working)
child: Text("\ud83d\ude0e\ud83d\ude0eThis is just test notification..\ud83d\ude0e\ud83d\ude0e\ud83d\udcaf\ud83d\ude4c")
Dynamic Response:
"message":"\\ud83d\\ude4c Be Safe at your home \\ud83c\\udfe0",
When i'm parse and pass this response to Text then it's consider Unicode as a String and display as a string instead of Smiley Code is below to display text with smiley:
child: Text(_listData[index].message.toString().replaceAll("\\\\", "\\"))
Already go through this: Question but it's only working when single unicode not working with multiple unicode.
Anyone worked with text along with unicode caracter display dynamically then please let me know.
Another alternate Good Solution I would give to unescape characters is this:
1st ->
String s = "\\ud83d\\ude0e Be Safe at your home \\ud83c\\ude0e";
String q = s.replaceAll("\\\\", "\\");
This would print and wont be able to escape characters:
\ud83d\ud83d Be Safe at your home \ud83c\ud83d
and above would be the output.
So what one can do is either unescape them while parsing or use:
String convertStringToUnicode(String content) {
String regex = "\\u";
int offset = content.indexOf(regex) + regex.length;
while(offset > 1){
int limit = offset + 4;
String str = content.substring(offset, limit);
// print(str);
if(str!=null && str.isNotEmpty){
String uni = String.fromCharCode(int.parse(str,radix:16));
content = content.replaceFirst(regex+str,uni);
// print(content);
}
offset = content.indexOf(regex) + regex.length;
// print(offset);
}
return content;
}
This will replace and convert all the literals into unicode characters and result and output of emoji:
String k = convertStringToUnicode(q);
print(k);
😎 Be Safe at your home 🈎
That is above would be the output.
Note: above answer given would just work as good but this is just when you want to have an unescape function and don't need to use third-party libraries.
You can extend this using switch cases with multiple unescape solutions.
Issue resolved by using below code snippet.
Client client = Client();
final response = await client.get(Uri.parse('YOUR_API_URL'));
if (response.statusCode == 200) {
// If the server did return a 200 OK response,
// then parse the JSON.
final extractedData = json.decode(response.body.replaceAll("\\\\", "\\"));
}
Here we need to replace double backslash to single backslash and then decode JSON respone before set into Text like this we can display multiple unicode like this:
final extractedData = json.decode(response.body.replaceAll("\\",
"\"));
Hope this answer help to other
I am using iText7 and I want to extract all the texts from a pdf and put html tag for bold ( <b>...</b> ) around all the words that uses bold fonts and save it in text file. Any pointers? I am able to independently extract text and also extract all the bold words but not able to co-relate the two.
Here is the code snippet I am using for extracting the text:
PdfDocument MyDocument = new PdfDocument(new PdfReader("C:\\MyTest.pdf"));
string MyText = PdfTextExtractor.GetTextFromPage(MyDocument.GetPage(1), new
SimpleTextExtractionStrategy());
Here is the code I am using for extracting all the words using the bold font:
MyRectangle = new Rectangle(0, 0, 50, 100);
CustomFontFilter fontFilter = new CustomFontFilter(MyRectangle);
FilteredEventListener listener = new FilteredEventListener();
LocationTextExtractionStrategy extractionStrategy =
listener.AttachEventListener(new LocationTextExtractionStrategy(), fontFilter);
PdfCanvasProcessor parser = new PdfCanvasProcessor(listener);
parser.ProcessPageContent(MyDocument.GetPage(1));
String MyBoldTextList = extractionStrategy.GetResultantText();
//------
class CustomFontFilter : TextRegionEventFilter
{
public CustomFontFilter(iText.Kernel.Geom.Rectangle filterRect) : base(filterRect){ }
override public bool Accept(IEventData data, EventType type)
{
if (type == EventType.RENDER_TEXT){
TextRenderInfo renderInfo = (TextRenderInfo)data;
PdfFont font = renderInfo.GetFont();
if (font!=null)
return font.GetFontProgram().GetFontNames().GetFontName().Contains("Bold");
}
return false;
}
}
The problem is that the pdf in question here is a multi-column document. SimpleTextExtractionStrategy brings the text in perfect order but if I use the LocationStrategy, it messes up texts by jumping from one column to next column in each line. I am not able to find any way to get the list of bold words using SimpleTextExtractionStrategy. In LocationStrategy, the list that I get is not in the right order so I am unable to co-relate it.
So to summarize:
You want to extract all the text from a pdf and put the html tag for bold (<b>...</b>) around all the text that uses bold fonts.
Your PDFs allow normal text extraction (without those <b> tags) using the SimpleTextExtractionStrategy. The LocationTextExtractionStrategy on the other hand cannot be used as it messes up the order of the multi-column text.
Bold text in your PDFs can properly be recognized by your CustomFontFilter, i.e. by the
font.GetFontProgram().GetFontNames().GetFontName().Contains("Bold")
condition.
Thus, one way to implement your task would be to extend the SimpleTextExtractionStrategy to check every chunk received using the CustomFontFilter condition and insert <b> tags where required.
For example like this:
public class BoldTaggingSimpleTextExtractionStrategy : SimpleTextExtractionStrategy
{
FieldInfo textField = typeof(TextRenderInfo).GetField("text", BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Instance);
bool currentlyBold = false;
public override void EventOccurred(IEventData data, EventType type)
{
if (type.Equals(EventType.RENDER_TEXT))
{
TextRenderInfo renderInfo = (TextRenderInfo)data;
string fontName = renderInfo.GetFont()?.GetFontProgram()?.GetFontNames()?.GetFontName();
if (fontName != null && fontName.Contains("Bold"))
{
if (!currentlyBold)
{
textField.SetValue(renderInfo, "<b>" + renderInfo.GetText());
currentlyBold = true;
}
}
else if (currentlyBold)
{
AppendTextChunk("</b>");
currentlyBold = false;
}
}
base.EventOccurred(data, type);
}
}
As you see I used reflection here. I did so because (A) TextRenderInfo does not allow public setting of the text and (B) AppendTextChunk must not be used before the first chunk is processed by base.EventOccurred - there the size of a StringBuilder containing the collected text chunks is used to check whether the chunk currently processed is the first one or not; if something is in that builder before at least one chunk has been processed, one gets a NullReferenceException. There are other work-arounds for that but reflection here means but one more line of code.
String fileName = _profPic.path.split('/').last;
print(fileName);
Output is Screenshot_2020-05-12-17-14-07-564_com.miui.home.png
but I require only home.png
It's impossible path or dart can decide which parts of the name you need.
You must manipulate the string. In your case, this method will do what you need:
String getName(String fullName){
final parts = fullName.split('.');
return parts.skip(parts.length - 2).take(2).join('.');
}
example:
final name = 'Screenshot_2020-05-12-17-14-07-564_com.miui.home.png';
print(getName(name)); // home.png
Or, you can convert this method into an extension.
