Flutter: ChangeNotifierProxyProvider: not providing updated correct state - flutter

Question

I am trying to get state from one ChangeNotifier Auth.dart into another ChangeNotifier ProductsProvider.dart. But ChangeNotifierProxyProvider is providing incorrect state data for Auth.
main.dart
void main() => runApp(
MultiProvider(
providers: [
ChangeNotifierProvider<Auth>(create: (ctx) => Auth()),
ChangeNotifierProxyProvider<Auth, ProductsProvider>(
create: (context) => ProductsProvider(
Provider.of<Auth>(context, listen: false),
productList: [],
),
update: (ctx, auth, preProducts) {
print("ChangeNotifierProxyProvider Token ${auth.isAuth}");
print("ChangeNotifierProxyProvider Token ${auth.token}");
print("ChangeNotifierProxyProvider Test ${auth.test}");
return ProductsProvider(
auth,
productList:
preProducts == null ? [] : preProducts.getProductList,
);
},
),
ChangeNotifierProvider(create: (ctx) => Cart()),
ChangeNotifierProvider(create: (ctx) => Order()),
ChangeNotifierProvider(create: (ctx) => Auth()),
],
child: MyApp(),
),
);
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Consumer<Auth>(
builder: (ctx, auth, _) {
print("Builder Token ${auth.isAuth}");
print("Builder Token ${auth.token}");
print("Builder Test ${auth.test}");
return MaterialApp(
debugShowCheckedModeBanner: false,
title: 'Flutter Demo',
theme: ThemeData(
primarySwatch: Colors.purple,
accentColor: Colors.orange,
fontFamily: "Lato",
),
routes: {
"/": (ctx) => auth.isAuth ? ProductOverviewScreen() : AuthScreen(),
ProductDetailScreen.PRODUCT_DETAIL_ROUTE: (ctx) =>
ProductDetailScreen(),
CartScreen.CART_SCREEN_ROUTE: (ctx) => CartScreen(),
OrderScreen.ORDER_SCREEN_ROUTE: (ctx) => OrderScreen(),
UserProductScreen.USER_PRODUCT_ROUTE: (ctx) => UserProductScreen(),
EditProductScreen.EDIT_PRODUCT_ROUTE: (ctx) => EditProductScreen(),
},
);
},

try {
await http.patch(uri,

final existingProductIndex =
_productList.indexWhere((element) => element.id == id);
var existingProduct = _productList[existingProductIndex];
_productList.removeAt(existingProductIndex);
final response = await http.delete(uri);
if (response.statusCode >= 400) {
_productList.insert(existingProductIndex, existingProduct);
notifyListeners();
throw HttpException("Could not delete product");
}
existingProduct = null;
notifyListeners();
}
}
After I click the login button the login method from the Auth.dart is trigged. After fetching the token the from firebase the screen is updated to ProductOverviewScreen. But the ProductsProvider.dart is not able to fetch the items because the ChangeNotifierProxyProvider update is returning an incorrect state for Auth.
Output:
Builder Token true

I am learning dart and flutter. I am not sure what I am missing. Can someone could help me fix this issue.

Answer 1

I was able to find what was causing this issue.
It appears I was reinitializing the Auth ChangeNotifierProvider. If you see the last line in the MultiProvider constructor providers argument.
If anyone else comes across such an issue ensure that you have specified the providers in the correct order.

Answer 2

Product Id defined int/Integer, but the parser from firebase is String. You need change in Product Id to String or use int.parse(prodId)
