Add search form above Firestore list in Flutter - flutter

Question

I am trying to render a search form above a list of items from Firestore and filter locally based on what is typed in the form.
I tried adding both widgets to the body like this, but it is only displaying the search form:
body: Column(
children: <Widget>[Searchform(), ContentWidget()],
),
This is the current code which displays a basic list:
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:cloud_firestore/cloud_firestore.dart';
class Items extends StatefulWidget {
Items({Key key}) : super(key: key);
#override
_ItemsState createState() => _ItemsState();
}
class _ItemsState extends State<Items> {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(
title: Text('Search'),
),
body: ContentWidget(),
);
}
}
class Searchform extends StatelessWidget {
final TextEditingController _searchController = TextEditingController();
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return TextField(
controller: _searchController,
decoration: InputDecoration(
labelText: "Search",
hintText: "Search",
prefixIcon: Icon(Icons.search),
border: OutlineInputBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.all(
Radius.circular(15.0),
),
),
),
);
}
}
class ContentWidget extends StatelessWidget {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return StreamBuilder<QuerySnapshot>(
stream: Firestore.instance.collection('content').snapshots(),
builder: (BuildContext context, AsyncSnapshot<QuerySnapshot> snapshot) {
if (snapshot.hasError) return new Text('Error: ${snapshot.error}');
switch (snapshot.connectionState) {
case ConnectionState.waiting:
return new Text('Loading...');
default:
return new ListView(
children:
snapshot.data.documents.map((DocumentSnapshot document) {
return new ListTile(
title: new Text(document['term']),
);
}).toList(),
);
}
},
);
}
}
What I was thinking of doing is saving the items in local state and filter them based on what is typed in the search box.

Answer 1

this is a very simple way try this code within "snapshot.data.documents.map((DocumentSnapshot document)"
if(_searchController.text.toString().contains(document['term'])){
return new ListTile(
title: new Text(document['term']),
);
}

Answer 2

I have provide simple filter record in listview code.
class FilterDemo extends StatefulWidget {
#override
State<StatefulWidget> createState() {
// TODO: implement createState
return FilterState();
}
}
class FilterState extends State<FilterDemo> {
List<String> items, duplicateList;
TextEditingController editingController = TextEditingController();
#override
void initState() {
// TODO: implement initState
super.initState();
items = List<String>.generate(1000, (i) => "Item $i");
duplicateList = items;
}
void filterSearchResults(String query) {
List<String> dummySearchList = List<String>();
dummySearchList.addAll(duplicateList);
if (query.isNotEmpty) {
List<String> dummyListData = List<String>();
dummySearchList.forEach((item) {
if (item.contains(query)) {
dummyListData.add(item);
}
});
setState(() {
items.clear();
items.addAll(dummyListData);
});
return;
} else {
setState(() {
items.clear();
items.addAll(duplicateList);
});
}
}
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
// TODO: implement build
return Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(
title: Text("Filter Demo"),
),
body: Column(
children: <Widget>[
Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.all(8.0),
child: TextField(
onChanged: (value) {
filterSearchResults(value);
},
controller: editingController,
decoration: InputDecoration(
labelText: "Search",
hintText: "Search",
prefixIcon: Icon(Icons.search),
border: OutlineInputBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.all(Radius.circular(25.0)))),
),
),
Expanded(
child: ListView.builder(
itemCount: items.length,
itemBuilder: (context, index) {
return ListTile(
title: Text('${items[index]}'),
);
},
),
),
],
),
);
}
}

I have provide Code how the saving the items in local state and filter them based on what is typed in the search box.
class UserList extends StatefulWidget {
final FirebaseUser user;
final String currentUserId;
UserList({this.currentUserId, this.user});
#override
_UserListState createState() => _UserListState();
}
class _UserListState extends State<UserList> {
TextEditingController _signUpConfirmPassword = new TextEditingController();
String _myValue = '';
UniqueKey _myKey = UniqueKey();
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return CupertinoPageScaffold(
navigationBar: CupertinoNavigationBar(
middle: Text("UserList"),

prefix: Padding(
padding: EdgeInsets.only(left: 10.0),
child: Icon(
Icons.search,
),
),
onChanged: (val) {
if (val.isNotEmpty) {
_myValue = val;
}
setState(() {
_myKey = UniqueKey();
});
},
decoration: BoxDecoration(
border: Border.all(color: primaryColor),
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(20.0)),
)),
SizedBox(height: 10.0),
Container(
key: _myKey,
child: FetchUsers(
user: widget.user,
myValue: _myValue,
)),
],
));
}
}
class FetchUsers extends StatefulWidget {
final String myValue;
final FirebaseUser user;
FetchUsers({this.myValue, this.user});
#override

class _FetchUsersState extends State<FetchUsers> {
List searchName = List();

Future listOfUsers() {
if (widget.myValue.isEmpty) {
return Firestore.instance
.collection('users')
.where('Role', isEqualTo: 'user')

.limit(10)
.getDocuments()
.then((d) {
userName.clear();
d.documents.forEach((f) {

return userName;

.toString()

return searchName;
