I want to cache two lists that got from Firebase to use to later when the user is offline
This is the full code for my list display screen -
import
I didn't get complete requirement by your question description but you can use shared_preferences library to store the data list as following
Add following line pubspec.yaml
dependencies:
flutter:
sdk: flutter
shared_preferences:
You can use this example and add more utility methods as per you requirement.
import 'dart:convert';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:shared_preferences/shared_preferences.dart';
void main() async {
AppConfig.init(() {
runApp(MyApp());
});
}
class CustomModel {
int id;
String name;
CustomModel({this.id, this.name});
factory CustomModel.fromJson(Map json) {
return CustomModel(id: json["id"], name: json["name"]);
}
Map toJson() => {"id": id, "name": name};
@override
String toString() {
return "id: $id, name: $name";
}
}
class AppConfig {
static Future init(VoidCallback callback) async {
WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
await SharedPreferenceUtils.init();
callback();
}
}
class MyApp extends StatefulWidget {
@override
_MyAppState createState() => _MyAppState();
}
class SharedPreferenceUtils {
static SharedPreferences prefs;
static init() async {
prefs = await SharedPreferences.getInstance();
// storing lists
await putStringList("m_list", ["abc", "def"]);
await putObjectList("data",
[CustomModel(id: 1, name: "Bob"), CustomModel(id: 2, name: "Alice")]);
}
static Future putStringList(String key, List list) async {
return prefs.setStringList(key, list);
}
static List getStringList(String key) {
return prefs.getStringList(key);
}
static Future putObjectList(String key, List
You don't need to store the lists in init() as it's done for this example. You can also pass data from one widget to others in multiple ways and if you are looking for state management then you can use BLOC or providers.
