PersistentContext class

Provides persistent data from shared preferences to all the descending widgets and allows to update it synchronously.

Variables are read and written as simple key-values pairs, where the key is a generic String and the value has any of the following: String, int, double, bool.

For a more robust implementation it is reccomended that you extend this class and add getters and setters for variable, as needed by your application.

PersistentContext({Key? key, required Widget child, Map<String, dynamic> defaultValues = const {}, String prefix = '', SharedPreferences? sharedPreferencesInstance})
Creates a widget that provides persistent data from shared preferences to all the descending widgets and allows to update it synchronously.

defaultValues → Map<String, dynamic>
A map of default values for each variable
final
hashCode → int
The hash code for this object.
no setterinherited
key → Key?
Controls how one widget replaces another widget in the tree.
finalinherited
notifier → PersistentContextNotifier?
The Listenable object to which to listen.
finalinherited
prefix → String
A prefix for local preferences names, that can be used to have variables with the same name in different contexts of the same app
final
ready → Future<bool>
A future that completes with true when shared preferences are loaded and ready to be used. It will imediately complete if the optional SharedPreferences instance is passed to the constructor.
