Append items dynamically to ListView

问题

I am new to Dart and Flutter and try to append a new item to my ListView. I created a button that increments this.value but nothing happens. Am I missing an update call on the UI and is this even the correct approach? Since I return the value of ListView.builder directly to the caller of build I am not sure how to get the list to add more items. Thanks a lot!

class MyList extends State<MyList> {

... 
int value = 2;

@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return ListView.builder(
    itemCount: this.value,
    itemBuilder: (context, index) => this._buildRow(index)
);

TL;DR: Is calling setState the correct way to trigger an UI update?

回答1:

Calling setState is the correct way of triggering an UI update.

From the docs:

Calling setState notifies the framework that the internal state of this object has changed in a way that might impact the user interface in this subtree, which causes the framework to schedule a build for this State object.

If you just change the state directly without calling setState, the framework might not schedule a build and the user interface for this subtree might not be updated to reflect the new state.

Here is a small example of a ListView with a Button that appends items to it.

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

void main() => runApp(new MaterialApp(home: MyList()));

class MyList extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  _MyListState createState() => _MyListState();
}

class _MyListState extends State<MyList> {
  int value = 2;

  _addItem() {
    setState(() {
      value = value + 1;
    });
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return new Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(
        title: Text("MyApp"),
      ),
      body: ListView.builder(
          itemCount: this.value,
          itemBuilder: (context, index) => this._buildRow(index)),
      floatingActionButton: FloatingActionButton(
        onPressed: _addItem,
        child: Icon(Icons.add),
      ),
    );
  }

  _buildRow(int index) {
    return Text("Item " + index.toString());
  }
}
