MinNotifier class abstract

A robust, lightweight base class for reactive state management that extends ChangeNotifier.

MinNotifier retains all native features, properties, and contract behaviors of Flutter's standard ChangeNotifier, but elevates the developer experience by introducing built-in lifecycle hooks (onInit, onReady) and dynamic mutation utilities (update).

This structure is specifically designed to keep your presentation layer (Views/Pages) entirely Stateless, encapsulating asynchronous setup operations, side-effects, and initial data fetching cleanly within the controller layer. (Controller, ViewModel etc)

Example usage:

class HomeViewModel extends MinNotifier {
  final UserService _service = UserService();
  final User user = User();
  bool isLoading = true;

  @override
  void onInit() {
    // Triggers instantly on creation. Ideal for immediate data fetching
    // without ever needing a StatefulWidget's initState on the page.
    fetchUserData();
  }

  Future<void> fetchUserData() async {
    final data = await _service.getProfile();
    user = data;
    isLoading = false;
    notifyListeners();
  }
}

Properties

hashCode → int
The hash code for this object.
no setterinherited

no setterinherited

Methods

addListener(VoidCallback listener) → void
Register a closure to be called when the object changes.
inherited
dispose() → void
Discards any resources used by the object.
override
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic
Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.
inherited
notifyListeners() → void
Call all the registered listeners.
override
onInit() → void
Triggered automatically as soon as this controller instance is instantiated in memory.
onReady() → void
Triggered immediately after the screen draws its very first frame.
removeListener(VoidCallback listener) → void
Remove a previously registered closure from the list of closures that are notified when the object changes.
inherited
tag(String tag) → TaggedNotifier<T>

Available on T, provided by the TaggedNotifierExtension extension

Assigns a tag to a notifier instance and converts it to a TaggedNotifier.
toString() → String
A string representation of this object.
inherited
update<T>(T target, void action(T)) → void
Safely mutates internal properties of a complex or mutable target object and automatically triggers a UI notification to the widget tree.

Operators

operator ==(Object other) → bool
The equality operator.
