Ошибка Flutter Web и Firebase List <String>и List <dynamic>с использованием поставщика

Question

Я создал веб-приложение с помощью Flutter. Создан и развернут без проблем за пару месяцев go. Вернулись к коду сегодня, не обновляя код, и теперь получаю следующую ошибку:

    Error:Expected a value of type 'List<String>', but got one of type 'List<dynamic>'
══╡ EXCEPTION CAUGHT BY WIDGETS LIBRARY ╞═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
The following JSNoSuchMethodError was thrown building NewHomeScreen(dirty, dependencies:
[_EffectiveTickerMode, _InheritedProviderScope<List<ContentModel>>, MediaQuery], state:
_NewHomeScreenState#295f1(tickers: tracking 2 tickers)):
NoSuchMethodError: invalid member on null: 'length'

Вот где и как я получаю данные из Firebase:

void main() => runApp(MyApp());

class MyApp extends StatefulWidget {
  // This widget is the root of your application.
  @override
  _MyAppState createState() => _MyAppState();
}

@override
void initState() {}

class _MyAppState extends State<MyApp> {

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    final linksCollection = Firestore.instance.collection('links');
    final contentCollection = Firestore.instance.collection('content');

    final contentObjects = contentCollection.snapshots().map((snapshot) {
      return snapshot.documents
          .map((doc) => ContentModel.fromDocument(doc))
          .toList();
    });

    return MultiProvider(
      providers: [
        StreamProvider<List<ContentModel>>(
          create: (_) => contentObjects,
          initialData: [],
          catchError: (BuildContext context, e) {
            print("Error:$e");
            return null;
          },
        ),

        Provider<CollectionReference>(create: (_) => linksCollection),

      ],
      child: MaterialApp(
        title: 'My App',
        debugShowCheckedModeBanner: false,
        theme: ThemeData(primarySwatch: Colors.blue, fontFamily: 'IBM_Plex'),
        initialRoute: '/',
        routes: {'/': (context) => NewHomeScreen()},
      ),
    );
  }
}

Я тогда использовать эти данные во всем приложении, обращаясь к ним с помощью Provider следующим образом:

class NewHomeScreen extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  _NewHomeScreenState createState() => _NewHomeScreenState();
}

class _NewHomeScreenState extends State<NewHomeScreen>
    with TickerProviderStateMixin {

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();

  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    final contentObjects = Provider.of<List<ContentModel>>(context);

    List<ContentModel> expertList = [];

    for (var data in contentObjects) {
      if(data.topic == 'expert') {
        expertList.add(data);
      }
    }

    return Scaffold(

Answer 1

Я думаю, что проблема возникает из-за параметра построителя itemCount: expertList.length.

Один из возможных случаев может заключаться в том, что expertList еще не заполняется из бэкэнда, когда запускается сборка виджета. Я бы предложил использовать параметр ожидания, чтобы убедиться, что данные были заполнены, прежде чем отображать построитель на экране. По моему опыту, мне удалось добиться этой функциональности с помощью ModalProgressHud, настроенного для моего состояния. Wait boolean.

Другое решение - просто добавить нулевые проверки. Быстрое исправление может быть следующим:

expertList.isNotEmpty ? 
ListView.builder(
      padding: EdgeInsets.only(left: 50, right: 50),
      scrollDirection: Axis.horizontal,
      itemCount: expertList.length, ... ) 
    :  Container();

Это гарантирует, что ListView Builder будет добавлен в дерево виджетов только в том случае, если он уже заполнен. Следовательно, обходит нулевые проблемы.

Answer 2

Учитывая

List<dynamic> dynamicList;

Вы можете использовать

var stringList = List<String>.from(dlist);

для преобразования List<dynamic> в List<String>

Поэтому вам необходимо исправить свой режим:

  static ContentModel fromDocument(DocumentSnapshot document) {
if (document == null || document.data == null) return null;

return ContentModel(
    documentId: document.documentID,
    imglink: document.data['imglink'],
    title: document.data['title'],
    description: document.data['description'],
    likeCount: document.data['likeCount'],
    tags:  List<String>.from(document.data['tags']),// to convert a List<dynamic> to List<String>
    isNew: document.data['isNew'],
    content: document.data['content'],
    contentLink: document.data['contentLink'],
    appColor: document.data['appColor'],
    positionVar: document.data['positionVar'],
    detailScreenLink: document.data['detailScreenLink'],
    topic: document.data['topic'],
    focusAreas:  List<String>.from(document.data['focusAreas']), //to convert a List<dynamic> to List<String>
    hashtag: document.data['hashtag']);}
