using bottom navigator sheet with bloc showing only once - flutter

I am crated a float action button, on click a bottom sheet will popup. i am using a bloc with freezed library. when i tape to the float action bottom once the application hot restart the bottom sheet app appeared, when i click again on the float action button there is no action happening.
bloc code:
class NoteBloc extends Bloc<NoteEvent, NoteState> {
NoteBloc() : super(const _Initial());
#override
Stream<NoteState> mapEventToState(
NoteEvent event,
) async* {
if(event is AddNoteClickedEvent){
yield const AddNoteClickedState();
}
}
}
event code:
#freezed
class NoteEvent with _$NoteEvent {
const factory NoteEvent.started() = _Started;
const factory NoteEvent.addNoteClickedEvent() = AddNoteClickedEvent;
}
state code:
#freezed
class NoteState with _$NoteState {
const factory NoteState.initial() = _Initial;
const factory NoteState.addNoteClickedState() = AddNoteClickedState;
}
bottom sheet code is:
class HomePage extends StatelessWidget {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
GlobalKey<ScaffoldState> _scaffoldKey = GlobalKey<ScaffoldState>();
return BlocConsumer<NoteBloc, NoteState>(
listener: (context, state) {
state.maybeMap(
orElse: () {},
addNoteClickedState: (AddNoteClickedState state) {
return _scaffoldKey.currentState!.showBottomSheet(
(context) => const AddNewNoteBottomSheet(),
);
},
);
},
builder: (context, state) {
return Scaffold(
key: _scaffoldKey,
floatingActionButton: InkWell(
onTap: () {
BlocProvider.of<NoteBloc>(context)
.add(const NoteEvent.addNoteClickedEvent());
},
child: Icon(
Icons.add,
// Icons.save,
color: const Color(whiteColor),
size: 9.h,
),
},
);
}
}

I usually write the code like this
class NoteBloc extends Bloc<NoteEvent, NoteState> {
NoteBloc() : super(const _Initial());
#override
Stream<NoteState> mapEventToState(
NoteEvent event,
) async* {
yield* event.when(
started: () async*{
yield initial(),
},
addNoteClickedState: ()async*{
yield addNoteClickedState();
},
);
}
}
and it always work

When using freezed classes, the operator== performs deep equals, so every instance of your bloc state is equal to the previous. In such a case, a new state won't be emitted. You need your new state to be different than the previous one.

Changing a property in provider executes all Consumers

I have CounterProvider mixin with ChangeNotifier and inside the class i have two counters (_counterOne and _counterTwo) when _counterOne is inremented all Consumers are executed hence Widgets that consume _counterOne and _counterTwo are executed. But I want only the _counterOne consumer widget to execute.
I couldn't found any salution to do that.
Thanks in advance.
Provider:
class CounterProvider with ChangeNotifier {
int _counterOne = 1;
int getCounterOne() => _counterOne;
void incrementCounterOne() {
_counterOne++;
notifyListeners();
}
int _counterTwo = 2;
int getCounterTwo() => _counterTwo;
void incrementCounterTwo() {
_counterTwo++;
notifyListeners();
}
}
View:
class CounterPage extends StatefulWidget {
const CounterPage({super.key});
#override
State<CounterPage> createState() => _CounterPageState();
}
class _CounterPageState extends State<CounterPage> {
late CounterProvider _provider;
#override
void initState() {
_provider = Provider.of<CounterProvider>(context, listen: false);
super.initState();
}
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) => Scaffold(
body: Column(
children: [
Consumer<CounterProvider>(builder: (context, value, child) {
print("Consumer of CounterOne executed");
return Text("CounterOne: ${value.getCounterOne()}");
}),
Consumer<CounterProvider>(builder: (context, value, child) {
print("Consumer of CounterTwo executed");
return Text("CounterTwo: ${value.getCounterTwo()}");
}),
// Buttons
ElevatedButton(
onPressed: () {
_provider.incrementCounterOne();
},
child: const Text("Increment CounterOne"),
),
ElevatedButton(
onPressed: () {
_provider.incrementCounterTwo();
},
child: const Text("Increment CounterTwo"),
),
],
));
}
according to how Provider works if you use Consumer on a Provider class it will listen to any changes on that class and update every time there is change, To solve this you can use Selector as explained in here.
But ValueListenableBuilder also works fine as suggested in the comments.

how to use riverpod, by combing futureprovider with stateprovider?

I am using futureprovider for getting response from api , but i want get the list from api and assign it to the stateprovider by using listprovider.state="data from api" , how to will it work ,
how to combine future provdier with the state provider .
UPDATED ANSWER
After a discussion with #31Carlton7, he's opened an issue on github, and after a discussion with Remi Rousselet (the creator of riverpod) we've reached a better solution for this problem.
(from the final solution on the issue)
Running the app:
main.dart
void main() {
runApp(const MyApp());
}
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
const MyApp({super.key});
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return const ProviderScope(
child: MaterialApp(
home: MyHomePage(),
),
);
}
}
Creating the foo class and provider:
foo.dart
part 'foo.g.dart';
class Foo {
final int bar;
int? baz;
Foo(
this.bar, {
this.baz,
});
}
#riverpod
class FooController extends _$FooController {
FooController(this.foo);
Foo foo;
#override
FutureOr<Foo> build() async {
foo = await getFoo();
return foo;
}
Future<Foo> getFoo() async {
await Future.delayed(const Duration(seconds: 1));
return Foo(1);
}
}
Implementation using Async capabilities:
home.dart
class MyHomePage extends StatelessWidget {
const MyHomePage({super.key});
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(),
body: Consumer(
builder: (context, ref, _) {
// Get the provider and watch it
final fooAsync = ref.watch(fooControllerProvider);
// Use .when to render UI from future
return fooAsync.when(
data: (foo) => Text('bar: ${foo.bar}, baz: ${foo.baz}'),
loading: () => const CircularProgressIndicator(),
error: (err, stack) => Text(err.toString()),
);
},
),
);
}
}
Implementation using Notifier capabilities: home.dart
class MyHomePage extends StatelessWidget {
const MyHomePage({super.key});
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(),
body: Consumer(
builder: (context, ref, _) {
// Get Foo provider and set the state of it.
// Use it as if it were a State Provider.
ref.watch(fooControllerProvider.notifier).foo = Foo(3);
// Use Foo in UI (.requireValue is used to be able to listen to changes)
final foo = ref.watch(fooControllerProvider).requireValue;
// Use .when to render UI from future
return Text('bar: ${foo.bar}, baz: ${foo.baz}');
},
),
);
}
}
OLD ANSWER
This is a topic that I've been struggling with and thinking about a lot lately.
What I think is missing in Remi's answer, is the ability to convert the Future data to a maniputable data.
When you're recieving Future data using either a FutureProvider and implementing the ui using the when method OR using the FutureBuilder widget, they both will trigger a rebuild when the remote data is received, so if you try to assign the value to your StateProvider it will trigger a rebuild during another rebuild which will throw.
I currently have 2 workarounds for this, and I will be updating my answer as I get more info about this.
For this example, we'll have a future provider that will wait and then return a fake data:
final _futureCounterProv = FutureProvider(
(ref) async {
Future.delayed(
Duration(seconds: 3),
);
return Random().nextInt(100);
},
);
1. Future.microtask:
Future.microtask enables you to run an operation after the current rebuild ends.
You have to make sure that your StateProvider dependencies are in a Consumer below the Future.microtask call or the Future.microtask will be called on each state update, which will keep reseting the StateProvider's value to the future value
// this provider will provide the current value of the counter
final _counterProv = StateProvider((ref) => 0);
class Body extends ConsumerWidget {
const Body({super.key});
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context, WidgetRef ref) {
return ref.watch(_futureCounterProv).when(
loading: () {
return const Center(
child: CircularProgressIndicator(),
);
},
error: (error, stackTrace) {
return Text(error.toString());
},
data: (data) {
Future.microtask(
() {
// Assigning the future value to the `StateProvider`
return ref.read(_counterProv.notifier).state = data;
},
);
return Consumer(
builder: (context, ref, _) {
final count = ref.watch(_counterProv);
return Column(
children: [
IconButton(
onPressed: () {
ref
.read(_counterProv.notifier)
.update((value) => value + 1);
},
icon: const Icon(Icons.add),
),
Text(
count.toString(),
),
],
);
},
);
},
);
}
}
2. ChangeNotifierProvider:
StateProvider has 2 options to update its value: the value setter and the update method, and they both trigger a rebuild. In this workaround we want to implement a state update that does not trigger rebuild. A way to do this is by using a ChangeNotifierProvider instead of StateProvider. By using a ChangeNotifierProvider we can control our own update actions and call notifyListeners (which will trigger a rebuild) whenever we want.
You have to make sure that your ChangeNotifierProvider dependencies are in a Consumer below the updateNoNotify call, or the ChangeNotifierProvider's will keep reseting to the future's value. Also you have to make sure that all the widgets that are consuming this ChangeNotifierProvider are in the widget tree below the updateNoNotify, or they will not be rebuilt as we're not triggering a rebuild
// the new `_counterProv`
final _counterProv = ChangeNotifierProvider(
(ref) => _CounterNotifier(),
);
class _CounterNotifier extends ChangeNotifier {
int _value = 0;
int get value => _value;
void update(int Function(int value) update) {
_value = update(_value);
// trigger a rebuild
notifyListeners();
}
void updateNoNotify(int Function(int value) update) {
_value = update(_value);
}
}
// the ui
class Body extends ConsumerWidget {
const Body({super.key});
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context, WidgetRef ref) {
return ref.watch(_futureCounterProv).when(
loading: () {
return const Center(
child: CircularProgressIndicator(),
);
},
error: (error, stackTrace) {
return Text(error.toString());
},
data: (data) {
// calling `updateNoNotify` which does not trigger
// trigger rebuild as it does not call `notifyListeners`
ref.read(_counterProv.notifier).updateNoNotify(
(e) => data,
);
return Consumer(
builder: (context, ref, _) {
final count = ref.watch(_counterProv).value;
return Column(
children: [
IconButton(
onPressed: () {
ref.read(_counterProv.notifier).update(
(value) => value + 1,
);
},
icon: const Icon(Icons.add),
),
Text(
count.toString(),
),
],
);
},
);
},
);
}
}
These are not the safest workarounds, but they are workarounds, and I will be updating this answer once I find a safe way to do this.

Flutter Navigator acting weird

I am trying to implement navigator 2.0 using flutter bloc but the problem is when I add new event and update state it does not rebuild even tho the bloc builder is working but when I hot reload all the previous pages in the list stack up and I can press back they all pop and when i reach at the first page it again stop rebuilding. I am posting a some chunk of code.
Here is the delegate class
class MyRouterDelegate extends RouterDelegate
with ChangeNotifier, PopNavigatorRouterDelegateMixin {
bool showOtherPage = false;
#override
final GlobalKey<NavigatorState> navigatorKey;
MyRouterDelegate() : navigatorKey = GlobalKey<NavigatorState>();
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return BlocBuilder<AuthenticationBloc, AuthenticationState>(
builder: (context, authenticationState) {
print(authenticationState.pages);
return Navigator(
key: navigatorKey,
pages: authenticationState.pages,
onPopPage: (route, result) {
if (!route.didPop(result)) return false;
BlocProvider.of<AuthenticationBloc>(context).add(UserLogoutEvent());
return true;
},
);
},
);
}
#override
Future<void> setNewRoutePath(configuration) async => null;
}
Here is my bloc
class AuthenticationBloc
extends Bloc<AuthenticationEvent, AuthenticationState> {
AuthenticationBloc()
: super(AuthenticationState(pages: [
MaterialPage(child: MyConnexionWidget(), key: ValueKey('my page'))
]));
#override
Stream<AuthenticationState> mapEventToState(
AuthenticationEvent event) async* {
switch (event.runtimeType) {
case UserLoginEvent:
final oldState = state.pages;
oldState
.add(MaterialPage(child: MyHomeWidget(), key: ValueKey('home')));
yield AuthenticationState(pages: oldState);
break;
case UserLogoutEvent:
final oldState = state.pages;
oldState.removeLast();
yield AuthenticationState(pages: oldState);
break;
}
}
}
// Authentication events
abstract class AuthenticationEvent {}
class UserLogoutEvent extends AuthenticationEvent {}
class UserLoginEvent extends AuthenticationEvent {}
// Authentication states
class AuthenticationState {
final List<Page> pages;
const AuthenticationState({required this.pages});
}
First page
class MyConnexionWidget extends StatelessWidget {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(
title: Text('Navigator 2.0 101 - Connexion screen'),
),
body: Center(
child: Column(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
children: <Widget>[
FlatButton(
child: Container(
padding: EdgeInsets.all(8.0),
color: Colors.greenAccent,
child: Text('Click me to connect.'),
),
onPressed: () => BlocProvider.of<AuthenticationBloc>(context)
.add(UserLoginEvent()),
)
],
),
),
);
}
}

How to rebuild StreamBuilder on resumed state with Flutter

I develop an app using BLoC pattern.
In my app there are 2 routes, route A and B, and both of them access same data.
A problem caused when moving the routes as below.
Move to route B from route A that shows the data.
Update the data at route B.
Back to route A.
After moving back to route A, the StreamBuilder of showing the data never updates automatically.
How can I let the StreamBuilder update on resumed state?
Here are sample codes.
routeA.dart
class RouteA extends StatefulWidget {
#override
_RouteAState createState() => _RouteAState();
}
class _RouteAState extends State<RouteA> {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
final bloc = Bloc();
return Column(
children: [
StreamBuilder( // this StreamBuilder never updates on resumed state
stream: bloc.data, // mistake, fixed. before: bloc.count
builder: (_, snapshot) => Text(
snapshot.data ?? "",
)),
RaisedButton(
child: Text("Move to route B"),
onPressed: () {
Navigator.of(context).pushNamed("routeB");
},
),
],
);
}
}
routeB.dart
class RouteB extends StatefulWidget {
#override
_RouteBState createState() => _RouteBState();
}
class _RouteBState extends State<RouteB> {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
final bloc = Bloc();
return Center(
child: RaisedButton(
child: Text("Update data"),
onPressed: () {
bloc.update.add(null);
},
),
);
}
}
bloc.dart
class Bloc {
Stream<String> data;
Sink<void> update;
Model _model;
Bloc() {
_model = Model();
final update = PublishSubject<void>();
this.update = update;
final data = BehaviorSubject<String>(seedValue: "");
this.data = data;
update.map((event) => _model.update()).listen((event) => data.sink.add(_model.getData()));
}
}
model.dart
class Model {
static Model _model;
factory Model() { // model is singleton.
_model ??= Model._();
return _model;
}
Model._();
int _data = 0;
void update() {
_data++;
}
String getData() {
return _data.toString();
}
}
StreamBuilder updates the data whenever it gets changed not when just by calling stream
RouteA
class RouteA extends StatefulWidget {
#override
_RouteAState createState() => _RouteAState();
}
class _RouteAState extends State<RouteA> {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Column(
children: [
StreamBuilder( // this StreamBuilder never updates on resumed state
stream: bloc.data, // mistake, fixed. before: bloc.count
builder: (_, snapshot) => Text(
snapshot.data ?? "",
)),
RaisedButton(
child: Text("Move to route B"),
onPressed: () {
Navigator.of(context).push(MaterialPageRoute(builder: (ctx) {
return RouteB();
}));
},
),
],
);
}
}
Route B
class RouteB extends StatefulWidget {
#override
_RouteBState createState() => _RouteBState();
}
class _RouteBState extends State<RouteB> {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Center(
child: RaisedButton(
child: Text("Update data"),
onPressed: () {
bloc.updateData();
},
),
);
}
}
Bloc
class Bloc {
final _update = PublishSubject<String>();
Model _model = Model();
Stream<String> get data => _update.stream;
void updateData() async {
_model.update();
_update.sink.add(_model.getData());
_update.stream.listen((event) {
print(event);
});
}
dispose() {
_update.close();
}
}
final bloc = Bloc();
just follow above changes, it will do the trick for you.

How to show errors from ChangeNotifier using Provider in Flutter

I'm trying to find the best way to show errors from a Change Notifier Model with Provider through a Snackbar.
Is there any built-in way or any advice you could help me with?
I found this way that is working but I don't know if it's correct.
Suppose I have a simple Page where I want to display a list of objects and a Model where I retrieve those objects from api. In case of error I notify an error String and I would like to display that error with a SnackBar.
page.dart
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:provider/provider.dart';
class Page extends StatefulWidget {
Page({Key key}) : super(key: key);
#override
_PageState createState() => _PageState();
}
class _PageState extends State< Page > {
#override
void initState(){
super.initState();
Provider.of<Model>(context, listen: false).load();
}
#override
void didChangeDependencies() {
super.didChangeDependencies();
Provider.of< Model >(context, listen: false).addListener(_listenForErrors);
}
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context){
super.build(context);
return Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(),
body: Consumer<Model>(
builder: (context, model, child){
if(model.elements != null){
...list
}
else return LoadingWidget();
}
)
)
);
}
void _listenForErrors(){
final error = Provider.of<Model>(context, listen: false).error;
if (error != null) {
Scaffold.of(context)
..hideCurrentSnackBar()
..showSnackBar(
SnackBar(
backgroundColor: Colors.red[600],
content: Row(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceBetween,
children: [
Icon(Icons.error),
Expanded(child: Padding( padding:EdgeInsets.only(left:16), child:Text(error) )),
],
),
),
);
}
}
#override
void dispose() {
Provider.of<PushNotificationModel>(context, listen: false).removeListener(_listenForErrors);
super.dispose();
}
}
page_model.dart
import 'package:flutter/foundation.dart';
class BrickModel extends ChangeNotifier {
List<String> _elements;
List<String> get elements => _elements;
String _error;
String get error => _error;
Future<void> load() async {
try{
final elements = await someApiCall();
_elements = [..._elements, ...elements];
}
catch(e) {
_error = e.toString();
}
finally {
notifyListeners();
}
}
}
Thank you
Edit 2022
I ported (and reworked) this package also for river pod if anyone is interested
https://pub.dev/packages/riverpod_messages/versions/1.0.0
EDIT 2020-06-05
I developed a slightly better approach to afford this kink of situations.
It can be found at This repo on github so you can see the implementation there, or use this package putting in your pubspec.yaml
provider_utilities:
git:
url: https://github.com/quantosapplications/flutter_provider_utilities.git
So when you need to present messages to the view you can:
extend your ChangeNotifier with MessageNotifierMixin that gives your ChangeNotifier two properties, error and info, and two methods, notifyError() and notifyInfo().
Wrap your Scaffold with a MessageListener that will present a Snackbar when it gets called notifyError() or NotifyInfo()
I'll give you an example:
ChangeNotifier
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:provider_utilities/provider_utilities.dart';
class MyNotifier extends ChangeNotifier with MessageNotifierMixin {
List<String> _properties = [];
List<String> get properties => _properties;
Future<void> load() async {
try {
/// Do some network calls or something else
await Future.delayed(Duration(seconds: 1), (){
_properties = ["Item 1", "Item 2", "Item 3"];
notifyInfo('Successfully called load() method');
});
}
catch(e) {
notifyError('Error calling load() method');
}
}
}
View
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:provider/provider.dart';
import 'package:provider_utilities/provider_utilities.dart';
import 'notifier.dart';
class View extends StatefulWidget {
View({Key key}) : super(key: key);
#override
_ViewState createState() => _ViewState();
}
class _ViewState extends State<View> {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(),
body: MessageListener<MyNotifier>(
child: Selector<MyNotifier, List<String>>(
selector: (ctx, model) => model.properties,
builder: (ctx, properties, child) => ListView.builder(
itemCount: properties.length,
itemBuilder: (ctx, index) => ListTile(
title: Text(properties[index])
),
),
)
)
);
}
}
OLD ANSWER
thank you.
Maybe I found a simpler way to handle this, using the powerful property "child" of Consumer.
With a custom stateless widget (I called it ErrorListener but it can be changed :))
class ErrorListener<T extends ErrorNotifierMixin> extends StatelessWidget {
final Widget child;
const ErrorListener({Key key, #required this.child}) : super(key: key);
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Consumer<T>(
builder: (context, model, child){
//here we listen for errors
if (model.error != null) {
WidgetsBinding.instance.addPostFrameCallback((_){
_handleError(context, model); });
}
// here we return child!
return child;
},
child: child
);
}
// this method will be called anytime an error occurs
// it shows a snackbar but it could do anything you want
void _handleError(BuildContext context, T model) {
Scaffold.of(context)
..hideCurrentSnackBar()
..showSnackBar(
SnackBar(
backgroundColor: Colors.red[600],
content: Row(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceBetween,
children: [
Icon(Icons.error),
Expanded(child: Padding( padding:EdgeInsets.only(left:16), child:Text(model.error) )),
],
),
),
);
// this will clear the error on model because it has been handled
model.clearError();
}
}
This widget must be put under a scaffold if you want to use a snackbar.
I use a mixin here to be sure that model has a error property and a clarError() method.
mixin ErrorNotifierMixin on ChangeNotifier {
String _error;
String get error => _error;
void notifyError(dynamic error) {
_error = error.toString();
notifyListeners();
}
void clearError() {
_error = null;
}
}
So for example we can use this way
class _PageState extends State<Page> {
// ...
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) =>
ChangeNotifierProvider(
builder: (context) => MyModel(),
child: Scaffold(
body: ErrorListener<MyModel>(
child: MyBody()
)
)
);
}
You can create a custom StatelessWidget to launch the snackbar when the view model changes. For example:
class SnackBarLauncher extends StatelessWidget {
final String error;
const SnackBarLauncher(
{Key key, #required this.error})
: super(key: key);
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
if (error != null) {
WidgetsBinding.instance.addPostFrameCallback(
(_) => _displaySnackBar(context, error: error));
}
// Placeholder container widget
return Container();
}
void _displaySnackBar(BuildContext context, {#required String error}) {
final snackBar = SnackBar(content: Text(error));
Scaffold.of(context).hideCurrentSnackBar();
Scaffold.of(context).showSnackBar(snackBar);
}
}
We can only display the snackbar once all widgets are built, that's why we have the WidgetsBinding.instance.addPostFrameCallback() call above.
Now we can add SnackBarLauncher to our screen:
class SomeScreen extends StatelessWidget {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(
title: Text(
'Title',
),
),
body: Stack(
children: [
// Other widgets here...
Consumer<EmailLoginScreenModel>(
builder: (context, model, child) =>
SnackBarLauncher(error: model.error),
),
],
),
);
}
}
