AutoDisposeStateNotifierProvider<NotifierT extends StateNotifier<T>, T> class

Creates a StateNotifier and exposes its current state.

This provider is used in combination with package:state_notifier.

Combined with StateNotifier, StateNotifierProvider can be used to manipulate advanced states, that would otherwise be difficult to represent with simpler providers such as Provider or FutureProvider.

For example, you may have a todo-list, where you can add and remove and complete a todo. Using StateNotifier, you could represent such state as:

class TodosNotifier extends StateNotifier<List<Todo>> {
  TodosNotifier(): super([]);

  void add(Todo todo) {
    state = [...state, todo];
  }

  void remove(String todoId) {
    state = [
      for (final todo in state)
        if (todo.id != todoId) todo,
    ];
  }

  void toggle(String todoId) {
    state = [
      for (final todo in state)
        if (todo.id == todoId) todo.copyWith(completed: !todo.completed),
    ];
  }
}

Which you can then pass to a StateNotifierProvider like so:

final todosProvider = StateNotifierProvider<TodosNotifier, List<Todo>>((ref) => TodosNotifier());

And finally, you can interact with it inside your UI:

Widget build(BuildContext context, WidgetRef ref) {
  // rebuild the widget when the todo list changes
  List<Todo> todos = ref.watch(todosProvider);

  return ListView(
    children: [
      for (final todo in todos)
        CheckboxListTile(
           value: todo.completed,
           // When tapping on the todo, change its completed status
           onChanged: (value) => ref.read(todosProvider.notifier).toggle(todo.id),
           title: Text(todo.description),
        ),
    ],
  );
}

finalinherited
dependencies → Iterable<ProviderOrFamily>?: The list of providers that this provider potentially depends on.
finalinherited
from → Family<Object?>?: If this provider was created with the .family modifier, from is the .family instance.
finalinherited
hashCode → int: The hash code for this object.
no setterinherited

Methods

addListener(Node node, void listener(T? previous, T next), {required void onError(Object error, StackTrace stackTrace)?, required void onDependencyMayHaveChanged()?, required bool fireImmediately}) → ProviderSubscription<T>: Starts listening to this transformer
inherited
createElement() → AutoDisposeStateNotifierProviderElement<NotifierT, T>: An internal method that defines how a provider behaves.
override
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic: Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.
inherited
overrideWith(Create<NotifierT, AutoDisposeStateNotifierProviderRef<NotifierT, T>> create) → Override: Override the provider with a new initialization function.
overrideWithProvider(ProviderType override) → Override: Available on ProviderType, provided by the OverrideWithProviderExtension extension
Overrides a provider with a value, ejecting the default behaviour.
read(Node node) → T: Obtains the result of this provider expression without adding listener.
inherited
select<Selected>(Selected selector(T value)) → ProviderListenable<Selected>: Partially listen to a provider.
inherited
toString() → String: A string representation of this object.
