SubProvider2<T, T2, R> class

Manages a Value T and exposes it to its descendants. Allows for smart Provider-Provider dependencies.

This is a combination of a SubValue and a Provider. Unlike a ProxyProvider where dependencies are sideloaded, this Widget completely recreates the Value when dependencies change.

The create function recieves all Providers which this depends on. The Providers are additionally treated as keys, so create is called again, should the Providers this SubProvider depends on change.

An example of a ProxyProvider

ProxyProvider<MyModel, MyOtherModel>(
  create: (_) => MyOtherModel(),
  update: (_, myModel, myOtherModel) => myOtherModel
    ..myModel = myModel,
  child: /* ... */,
);

looks like this as a SubProvider:

SubProvider<MyModel, MyOtherModel>(
  create: (_, myModel) => MyOtherModel(myModel: myModel),
  child: /* ... */,
);

The notable difference being, that myModel can now once again be passed through the constructor, and does not have to be sideloaded. MyOtherModel is automatically recreated whenever myModel changes.

Just like Providers, SubProviders can be used inside of a MultiProvider.

Constructors

SubProvider2({required SubProviderCreate2<T, T2, R> create, SubProviderUpdate2<T, T2, R>? update, SubValueBuilderKeys? keys, SubValueBuilderDispose<R>? dispose, TransitionBuilder? builder, Widget? child})
Manages a Value T and exposes it to its descendants.

Properties

builder → TransitionBuilder?
Builds the child of this Widget.
finalinherited
create → SubValueBuilderCreate<R>
Creates the value. Called at least once and everytime keys changes.
finalinherited
dispose → SubValueBuilderDispose<R>?
Disposes the value. Called before recreation and when disposing. Useful for Listeners, etc.
finalinherited
hashCode → int
The hash code for this object.
no setterinherited
key → Key?
Controls how one widget replaces another widget in the tree.
finalinherited
keys → SubValueBuilderKeys?
Used to decide when to recreate the value. If null, the value is never recreated.
finalinherited
runtimeType → Type
A representation of the runtime type of the object.
no setterinherited
update → SubValueBuilderUpdate<R>?
Updates the value. Called every build. If null, does nothing. In the call order, this comes after recreating the value.
