Managing state of asynchronous updates as a simple dart representation.
Quickstart #
A simple usage example of the Update
state and update
method.
import 'package:updated/updated.dart';
Future<int> requestValue() async {
await Future.delayed(const Duration(seconds: 1));
return 42;
}
Future<void> main() async {
var value = Update<int>();
// ---
// Value : 32
// Is Loading...
// Details : Updating<int>(id: 28313824297, startedAt: 2020-11-23 16:57:04.298751, optimisticValue: 32)
// ---
// Value : 42
// Is not loading : Updated<int>(id: 28313824297, updatedAt: 2020-11-23 16:57:05.315, previousUpdate: 42)
// Details : Updated<int>(id: 28313824297, updatedAt: 2020-11-23 16:57:05.315, previousUpdate: 42)
await for (var item in update(
updater: requestValue,
getUpdate: () => value,
optimisticValue: 32,
)) {
print('---');
value = item;
item.mapValue(
value: (value, isOptimistic) => print('Value : $value'),
orElse: () => print('No value'),
);
item.mapLoading(
loading: () => print('Is Loading...'),
notLoading: () => print('Is not loading : $value'),
);
print('Details : $item');
}
// ---
// Value : 32
// Is Loading...
// Details : Refreshing<int>(id: 28313797308, startedAt: 2020-11-23 16:56:38.327266, previousUpdate: Updated<int>(id: 28313797307, updatedAt: 2020-11-23 16:56:38.322668, previousUpdate: 42), optimisticValue: 32)

// Is not loading : Updated<int>(id: 28313797308, updatedAt: 2020-11-23 16:56:39.334887, previousUpdate: 42)
// Details : Updated<int>(id: 28313797308, updatedAt: 2020-11-23 16:56:39.334887, previousUpdate: 42)
await for (var item in update(
updater: requestValue,
getUpdate: () => value,
optimisticValue: 32,
)) {
print('---');
value = item;
item.mapValue(
value: (value, isOptimistic) => print('Value : $value'),
orElse: () => print('No value'),
);
item.mapLoading(
loading: () => print('Is Loading...'),
notLoading: () => print('Is not loading : $value'),
);
print('Details : $item');
}
}
Usage #
An update represents the lifecycle of a T
value that can be loaded asynchronously.
Its initial state is NotLoaded
. During its first update, it goes through the Updating
state then Updated
or FailedUpdate
states, whether it is a success or not. During the following updates, it goes through the Refreshing
state then Updated
or FailedRefresh
states, whether it is a success or not.
Initialization
To create an updated property, create an Update<T>
.
final property = Update<int>();
Updating
The easiest way to update your Update<T>
instance is by using the update
function that returns a Stream
with the sequence of updates.
var value = Update<int>();
final updateStream = update(
// The actual async operation
updater: () async {
// your async calls
},
// Make sure to always return the current value. This makes cancellation possible.
getUpdate: () => value,
// This value will be available durint loading states
optimisticValue: 32,
// To change the behaviour when an update is triggered but the previous isn't finished yet.
// If a previous update is cancelled then its stream is closed an no more events are emitted.
override: UpdateOverride.cancelPrevious,
));
If an
optimisticValue
is given, then its value is returned by theUpdate.mapValue
method. This may be useful to display the result to the user beforehand if we're able to anticipate it (for example, by liking a tweet on twitter, we can fill the heart before receiving the result of the request that validates it).
If a new update is triggered with the
cancelPrevious
option, then the previous update stream won't emit its final updates.
Mapping result
You can map the current state of an Update<T>
instance with the map
, mapValue
, mapLoading
, mapError
methods.
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context)
return state.products.mapValue(
value: (value, isOptimistic) => ProductList(products: value),
orElse: () => EmptyView(),
);
}
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context)
return state.products.mapError(
error: (error, stackTrace) => ErrorView(error: error),
orElse: () => ResulView(),
);
}
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context)
return state.products.mapLoading(
loading: (error, stackTrace) => LoadingView(),
notLoading: () => ResulView(),
);
}
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context)
return state.products.map(
updated: (state) => UpdatedView(),
failedRefresh: (state) => FailedView(),
refreshing: (state) => LoadingView(),
updating: (state) => LoadingView(),
failedUpdate: (state) => FailedView(),
notLoaded: (state) => NotLoadedView(),
);
}
UpdateNotifier
An UpdateNotifier<T>
is a mutable store for an Update<T>
instance.
The [update] is updated by calling [execute].
final notifier = UpdateNotifier<int>();
final currentUpdate = notifier.update;
notifier.updateChanged.listen((update) {
// ...
});
notifier.execute(
// The actual async operation
updater: () async {
// your async calls
},
// This value will be available durint loading states
optimisticValue: 32,
// To change the behaviour when an update is triggered but the previous isn't finished yet.
// If a previous update is cancelled then its stream is closed an no more events are emitted.
override: UpdateOverride.cancelPrevious,
));
If you're using patterns base on immutable data (like redux, MVU), using
update
function directly may be more appropriate.
