In my Flutter application, I am trying to pass JSON data from one route to another. The challenge I am facing is how to pass a list as a parameter. The first screen contains a list of JSON data that has been fetched, and I aim to show the complete details of each item when the user clicks on the respective ListTile.
you will find the onTap() in JsonParsingPodo.dart
here's my code :
posts.dart (plain old dart object file)
class PostList {
final List<Post> posts;
PostList({required this.posts});
factory PostList.fromJson(Map<String, dynamic> parsedJson) {
List<dynamic> postsJson = parsedJson['posts'] as List;
List<Post> posts = <Post>[];
posts = postsJson.map((e) => Post.fromJson(e)).toList();
return PostList(posts: posts);
}
}
class Post {
int userId;
int id;
String title;
String body;
Post(
{required this.id,
required this.body,
required this.title,
required this.userId});
factory Post.fromJson(Map<String, dynamic> json) {
return Post(
id: json['id'],
body: json['body'],
title: json['title'],
userId: json['userId']);
}
}
JsonParsingPodo.dart (First Screen)

I have recently started learning Flutter and don't have much knowledge. I tried reading articles on Stack Overflow about this thing, but I didn't understand much. So, I have decided to post a question for help. Please assist me in completing the following code.
On the "Display Data" page, I need to display the **title **and its **description **when the user clicks on the ListItem.
onListile tap send particular object using index
Widget createListView(List<Post> data, BuildContext context) {
return ListView.builder(
itemCount: data.length,
itemBuilder: (context, int index) {
Post post = data[index]
return Column(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
children: <Widget>[
const Divider(
height: 5.0,
),
ListTile(
title: Text("${data[index].title}"),
subtitle: Text("${data[index].body}"),
leading: Column(
children: <Widget>[
CircleAvatar(
backgroundColor: Colors.green,
radius: 23,
child: Text("${data[index].id}"),
),
],
),
onTap: () {
Navigator.push(
context,
MaterialPageRoute(
builder: (context) => const DisplayData(post:post)),
// *what to pass here??*
);
},
),
],
);
});
}
}

I dont understand exactly what you want, but if its how to call a method from a parent widget, if would be something like this:
class ParentWidget extends StatelessWidget{
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return ChildWidget(onAction: (resultValue){
//Do something with the value
});
}
}
class ChildWidget extends StatelessWidget{
final Function onAction;
ChildWidget({Key key, #required this.onAction}) : super(key: key);
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Inkwell(
onTap: (){
onAction(someValue);
}
child: AnyOtherWidget
);
}
}
I'm working on a simple math-app for my daughter. Below is some code that you can use if you like (it may not be the most beautiful code, but it works ok and maybe it helps someone).
My issues are:
1) To limit the number of characters (numbers) that the user can type. I only find solutions about this when it comes to textFields (such as maxLength).
2) My refresh-button ("NEXT") is not working at all. The idea is to give the user a new random math-task from the previous arithmetic choice.
3) Currently you can type the wrong answer, click ok and then correct your answer to get a "Correct". The plan is that once you've clicked ok, you won't be able to change your answer. You will only be able to click NEXT. (I plan to implement a counter to this later, that will return the number of correct and false answers after x numbers of tasks).
Any help is highly appreciated (code or what I shall look at). Thank you.

Well It's working. It's not the best way to do this but I tried keep your old code base.I really advise make use of some patterns like BLoC to manage the state of the widgets and avoid setState calls.
Was needed split your code in some more classes.
What I have done here??
Create a enum called MathOperation. This enum is used to identify what kind of arithmetic operation the user selected.
The older FirstClass is now OperationSelectorScreen
The older SecondClass is now QuestionAndAnswerScreen
I've created CustomTextField class to implement a simple 'text field' with a max number of characters.
I've implmented MathOperationTask class. This class is an abstraction for arithmetics operations like sum and subtraction. This class holds the numbers involved in operation, his symbol "+" or "-" and the operation results.
There is some comments in source code to guide you, if you need to ask for something feel free to do I will answer when I can. I hope it helps.

I am trying to implement input search feature wherein typing a search text will display suggested text and user can select relevant text from list and hit search button to proceed to corresponding screen. The suggested text is in local json and I added it under under assets/ folder and in pubspec.yaml.
The search textfield is:
The code for above is:
new TextField(
style: new TextStyle(
color: Colors.white,
fontSize: 16.0),
cursorColor: Colors.green,
decoration: new InputDecoration(
suffixIcon: Container(
width: 85.0,
height: 60.0,
color: Colors.green,
child: new IconButton(
icon: new Image.asset('assets/search_icon_ivory.png',color: Colors.white, height: 18.0,),
onPressed: () {
},
),
),
fillColor: Colors.black,
contentPadding: new EdgeInsets.fromLTRB(10.0, 30.0, 10.0, 20.0),
filled: true,
hintText: 'What Do You Need Help With?',
hintStyle: new TextStyle(
color: Colors.white
)
)
)
The local json data sample is:
I want to achieve above using autocomplete_textfield package which I've installed and imported and referring this example.
I would like to know how to get started with this and integrate parsing from local json, hook that data using autocomplete_textfield package to achieve my goal. I haven't done parsing json in flutter yet so looking for guidance on how to do that.
The end result I am looking for is like this:
***************** Edit **************
I am now able to parse data from local json and display it in a listView using a demo app. For it, I created a new model class `services.dart' as below:
class Categories {
String serviceCategory;
String servCategoryDesc;
int id;
String autocompleteterm;
String category;
String desc;
Categories({
this.serviceCategory,
this.servCategoryDesc,
this.id,
this.autocompleteterm,
this.category,
this.desc
});
factory Categories.fromJson(Map<String, dynamic> parsedJson) {
return Categories(
serviceCategory:parsedJson['serviceCategory'] as String,
servCategoryDesc: parsedJson['serviceCategoryDesc'] as String,
id: parsedJson['serviceCategoryId'],
autocompleteterm: parsedJson['autocompleteTerm'] as String,
category: parsedJson['category'] as String,
desc: parsedJson['description'] as String
);
}
}
Used builder function to retrieve and display value in listview as below:
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return new Scaffold(
appBar: new AppBar(
title: new Text("Load local JSON file"),
),
body: new Container(
child: new Center(
// Use future builder and DefaultAssetBundle to load the local JSON file
child: new FutureBuilder(
future: DefaultAssetBundle
.of(context)
.loadString('assets/services.json'),
builder: (context, snapshot) {
// Decode the JSON
Map data = json.decode(snapshot.data
.toString());
print(data);
final List<Categories> items = (data['data'] as List).map((i) => new Categories.fromJson(i)).toList();
for (final item in items) {
print(item.category);
return new ListView.builder(
itemBuilder: (BuildContext context, int index) {
return new Card(
child: new Column(
crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.stretch,
children: <Widget>[
new Text('Service Category: ' + items[index].category),
new Text('Category' + items[index].categoryDesc),
new Text('Auto complete term' + items[index].autocompleteterm),
new Text('Desc' + items[index].desc)
],
),
);
},
);
}
}
)
)
)
);
}
}
In my target app, added required code that uses autocomplete_textfield package that shows a static list of suggestions as of now :
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
textField = new AutoCompleteTextField<String>
(style: new TextStyle(
color: Colors.white,
fontSize: 16.0),
decoration: new InputDecoration(
suffixIcon: Container(
width: 85.0,
height: 60.0,
color: Colors.green,
child: new IconButton(
icon: new Image.asset('assets/search_icon_ivory.png',color: Colors.white,
height: 18.0,),
onPressed: (){},
),
),
fillColor: Colors.black,
contentPadding: new EdgeInsets.fromLTRB(10.0, 30.0, 10.0, 20.0),
filled: true,
hintText: 'What Do You Need Help With ?',
hintStyle: new TextStyle(
color: Colors.white
)
),
submitOnSuggestionTap: true,
clearOnSubmit: true,
textChanged: (item){
currentText = item;
},
textSubmitted: (item) {
setState(() {
currentText = item;
});
},
key: key,
suggestions: suggestions,
itemBuilder: (context, item) {
return new Padding(
padding: EdgeInsets.all(8.0), child: new Text(item));
},
itemSorter: (a, b) {
return a.compareTo(b);
},
itemFilter: (item, query) {
return item.toLowerCase().startsWith(query.toLowerCase());
});
Column body = new Column(children: [
new GestureDetector(
child: new ListTile(
title: textField,
onTap: () {
setState(() {
if (currentText != "") {
added.add(currentText);
textField.clear();
currentText = "";
}
});
}
)
)
]
);
body.children.addAll(added.map((item) {
return new ListTile(
title: new Text(item)
);
}));
return Scaffold(
resizeToAvoidBottomPadding: false,
backgroundColor: Color(0xFF13212C),
appBar: AppBar(
title: Text(''),
),
drawer: appDrawer(),
body: new Center(
child: new Column(
crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.stretch,
children: <Widget>[
new Column(
children: <Widget>[
textField
Above code shows in UI as below:
I now would like to know how to hook the builder function retrieving json data in my target app, so that instead of static list of strings, the dropdown would show suggestions from json (as posted in my original question's screenshot).
If you found doing this manually it too much, this is actually a flutter package that does this. There are two examples on the package site too.
Do be warned, this is currently a bug in the package (I have raised a PR to fix it but the package owner has been too busy to review any PR recently). Depending on how you use it, the bug may not affect you.
I am getting below exception. I am just learning Flutter.
Below is my code:
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
void main() => runApp(new FriendlyChatApp());
const String _name = "Hammad Tariq";
class FriendlyChatApp extends StatelessWidget {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return new MaterialApp(
title: "Friendly Chat",
home: new ChatScreen(),
);
}
}
class ChatScreen extends StatelessWidget {
ChatScreen({this.text});
final String text;
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return new Container(
margin: const EdgeInsets.symmetric(vertical: 10.0),
child: new Row(
crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.center,
children: <Widget>[
new Container(
margin: const EdgeInsets.only(right: 10.0),
child: new CircleAvatar(
child: new Text(_name),
),
),
new Column(
crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.start,
children: <Widget>[
new Text(_name, style: Theme.of(context).textTheme.subhead),
new Container(
margin: const EdgeInsets.only(top: 5.0),
child: new Text(text),
),
],
)
],
),
);
/*return new Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(
title: new Text("Chat App"),
),
);*/
}
}
The issue is in the line
child: new Text(text)
where String text is null.
You've defined text as an optional parameter and you are not passing it from FriendlyChatApp.
If you require some inputs from parent page for the child to work properly then you can define it with #required annotation because you won't miss it accidentally.
