Class 'List<DocumentSnapshot>' has no instance getter 'documents' - flutter

Question

I am trying to achieve a functionality where the app displays all the users' details in a grid view except the current user's. I have been trying to assign snapshots to _stream and then apply the _stream value in StreamBuilder(). But it throws an error instead.
Database _database = Database();
Stream _stream;
String currentUserId;
#override
void initState() {
getCurrentUserId(); //currentUserId gets its value here
getAllUsers();
super.initState();
}
getAllUsers() async {
Stream<QuerySnapshot> snapshots = await _database.getAllUsers();
_stream = snapshots.map((querySnapshot) => querySnapshot.documents.where((documentSnapshot)
=> documentSnapshot.data["userId"] != currentUserId
).toList())
}
//..
StreamBuilder(
stream: _stream,
builder: (context, snapshot) {
if (snapshot.data != null)
//..
}
//..
)
NEW: if I add as QuerySnapshot, the snapshot in the StreamBuilder will be null instead of throwing an exception.
// NEW
_stream = snapshots.map((querySnapshot) => querySnapshot.documents.where((documentSnapshot)
=> documentSnapshot.data["userId"] != currentUserId
).toList() as QuerySnapshot);
Database class
getAllUsers() async {
return await _firestore.collection("users").snapshots();
}

Answer 1

We do not know which line is this error pointing, however if I understand correctly the reason might be type of StreamBuilder property stream that should be of Stream class (reference).
Seems _stream is a list created from stream using toList method (reference). I would try to remove this toList method, and see what will happen.
I hope it will help!

// NEW
_stream = snapshots.map((querySnapshot) => querySnapshot.documents.where((documentSnapshot)
=> documentSnapshot.data["userId"] != currentUserId
).toList() as QuerySnapshot);
here the querySnapshot is a List<DocumentSnapshot>!!!
you are probably have to use querySnapshot.where()

As others point out, querySnapshot is a List<DocumentSnapshot> and not DocumentSnapshot, so you can't use the getter .documents(that getter is for DocumentSnapshot only, not for a List), This is becasue is retrieving the DocumentSnapshot of every user except the current user (a DocumentSnapshot for each user, so a List<DocumentSnapshot>).
If you want to return a Stream of type of List<DocumentSnapshot> then
_stream = snapshots
.map<List<DocumentSnapshot>>((querySnapshot) =>
querySnapshot.where((documentSnapshot) =>
documentSnapshot.data["userId"] != currentUserId)
);
