Disabling lint rules

By default when installing sangria_lints, all the lints will be enabled. To change this, you have a few options.

analyzer:
  plugins:
    - custom_lint

custom_lint:
  rules:
    # Explicitly disable one custom-lint rule.
    - use_setstate_synchronously: false

All custom-lint rules in sangria_lints

use_setstate_synchronously

A use_setstate_synchronously rule that discourages the use of setState across asynchronous gaps within subclasses of State.

In async functions, the state of a widget may have been disposed across asynchronous gaps in a case when the user moves to a different screen. This leads to setState() called after dispose() error. Since widgets can be unmounted before a Future gets resolved, seeing if widgets are mounted is necessary before calling setState.

Example

❌ BAD

class _MyWidgetState extends State<MyWidget> {
  String message;

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Button(
      onPressed: () async {
        String fromSharedPreference = await getFromSharedPreference();
          // LINT: Avoid calling 'setState' across asynchronous gaps without seeing if the widget is mounted.
          setState(() {
            message = fromSharedPreference;
          });
        },
        child: Text(message),
      );
    }
  }
