How to perform a text search over JSON data in Flutter? - json

Question

I am working on an application which requires to fetch some JSON data from firebase storage and then a user can perform a search over it. But, my search query isn't working properly and I get one error when I perform the search multiple times.
I have first uploaded the data to firebase storage and then fetched it. The search is working sometimes only. I cannot figure out what is wrong with the code.
Here is the complete code
import 'dart:typed_data';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:firebase_storage/firebase_storage.dart';
import 'dart:convert';
void main() {
runApp(MyApp());
}
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
title: 'Contacts Demo',
debugShowCheckedModeBanner: false,
home: StorageUpload(),
);
}
}
class StorageUpload extends StatefulWidget {
#override
StorageUploadState createState() => new StorageUploadState();
}
class StorageUploadState extends State<StorageUpload> {
var rows = [];
String query = '';
TextEditingController tc;
#override
void initState() {
super.initState();
tc = TextEditingController();
rows = [
{
'contact_name': 'Test User 1',
'contact_phone': '066 560 4900',
},
{
'contact_name': 'Test User 2',
'contact_phone': '066 560 7865',
},
{
'contact_name': 'Test User 3',
'contact_phone': '906 500 4334',
}
];
}
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return new Scaffold(
appBar: new AppBar(
title: new Text(
"Delivero Contacts",
style: new TextStyle(
color: Colors.white,
),
),
),
body: Container(
color: Colors.white,
padding: EdgeInsets.all(10),
child: Stack(
children: [
Column(
children: [
Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.all(10.0),
child: TextField(
controller: tc,
decoration: InputDecoration(hintText: 'Search...'),
onChanged: (v) {
setState(() {
query = v;
});
},
),
),
Container(
color: Colors.white,
child: ListView.builder(
shrinkWrap: true,
itemCount: rows.length,
itemBuilder: (con, ind) {
return query.isEmpty
? ListTile(
title: Text(rows[ind]['contact_name']),
subtitle: Text(rows[ind]['contact_phone']),
onTap: () {
setState(() {
tc.text = rows[ind]['contact_name'];
query = rows[ind]['contact_name'];
});
},
)
: rows[ind]['contact_name']
.toString()
.toLowerCase()
.contains(query.toLowerCase()) ||
rows[ind]['contact_phone']
.toString()
.toLowerCase()
.contains(query.toLowerCase())
? ListTile(
title: Text(rows[ind]['contact_name']),
subtitle: Text(rows[ind]['contact_phone']),
onTap: () {
setState(() {
tc.text = rows[ind]['contact_name'];
query = rows[ind]['contact_name'];
});
},
)
: null;
},
),
),
],
),
],
),
),
);
}
}
Here is the error I am getting

I am a Flutter noob. How can I perform a full-text search over different JSON field from the data fetched from firebase storage? Any help would be amazing. Thanks for your time!

Answer 2

I slightly changed your code to make a working sample.
I added a results List object and I moved the "query.isEmpty" check before the ListView:
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
void main() {
runApp(MyApp());
}
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
title: 'Contacts Demo',
debugShowCheckedModeBanner: false,
home: StorageUpload(),
);
}
}
class StorageUpload extends StatefulWidget {
#override
StorageUploadState createState() => new StorageUploadState();
}
class StorageUploadState extends State<StorageUpload> {
List results = [];
var rows = [];
String query = '';
TextEditingController tc;
#override
void initState() {
super.initState();
tc = TextEditingController();
rows = [
{
'contact_name': 'Test User 1',
'contact_phone': '066 560 4900',
},
{
'contact_name': 'Test User 2',
'contact_phone': '066 560 7865',
},
{
'contact_name': 'Test User 3',
'contact_phone': '906 500 4334',
}
];
}
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return new Scaffold(
appBar: new AppBar(
title: new Text(
"Delivero Contacts",
style: new TextStyle(
color: Colors.white,
),
),
),
body: Container(
color: Colors.white,
padding: EdgeInsets.all(10),
child: Stack(
children: [
Column(
children: [
Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.all(10.0),
child: TextField(
controller: tc,
decoration: InputDecoration(hintText: 'Search...'),
onChanged: (v) {
setState(() {
query = v;
setResults(query);
});
},
),
),
Container(
color: Colors.white,
child: query.isEmpty
? ListView.builder(
shrinkWrap: true,
itemCount: rows.length,
itemBuilder: (con, ind) {
return ListTile(
title: Text(rows[ind]['contact_name']),
subtitle: Text(rows[ind]['contact_phone']),
onTap: () {
setState(() {
tc.text = rows[ind]['contact_name'];
query = rows[ind]['contact_name'];
setResults(query);
});
},
);
},
)
: ListView.builder(
shrinkWrap: true,
itemCount: results.length,
itemBuilder: (con, ind) {
return ListTile(
title: Text(results[ind]['contact_name']),
subtitle: Text(results[ind]['contact_phone']),
onTap: () {
setState(() {
tc.text = results[ind]['contact_name'];
query = results[ind]['contact_name'];
setResults(query);
});
},
);
},
),
),
],
),
],
),
),
);
}
void setResults(String query) {
results = rows
.where((elem) =>
elem['contact_name']
.toString()
.toLowerCase()
.contains(query.toLowerCase()) ||
elem['contact_phone']
.toString()
.toLowerCase()
.contains(query.toLowerCase()))
.toList();
}
}
