Full Example

You don't need to pass parameters to State using it's constructor. You can easily access these using widget.myField.

class MyRecord extends StatefulWidget {
  final String recordName;
  const MyRecord(this.recordName);

  @override
  MyRecordState createState() => MyRecordState();
}

class MyRecordState extends State {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Text(widget.recordName); // Here you direct access using widget
  }
}

Pass your data when you Navigate screen :

 Navigator.of(context).push(MaterialPageRoute(builder: (context) => MyRecord("WonderWorld")));
