I am getting data from firebase and making cards using that data. to display certain data of user from database, the data loads fine but for 1 second or more there is a red err
So after trying out some stuff I finally fixed this error. decided to post an answer since this question doesn't have any solution online. at-least I couldn't find one. hope this helps people having the same issue
what I first did was declare a String which contained the value of user.uid
String userid;
void _getUser() async {
FirebaseUser user = await FirebaseAuth.instance.currentUser();
userid=user.uid;
}
now in the card builder widget I got rid of the extra stuff and simply called _getUser() method in the init state
class _CardBuilderState extends State {
@override
void initState() {
super.initState();
_getUser();
}
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return StreamBuilder(
stream: Firestore.instance.collection(UserInformation).document(userid).snapshots(),
builder: (context, snapshot) {
if(snapshot.hasData)
{
final userDocument = snapshot.data;
final title=userDocument[widget.text];
return Card(
margin: EdgeInsets.only(left: 20,right: 20,top: 20),
child: ListTile(
leading:
Icon(widget.icon, color: QamaiGreen, size: 20.0),
title: AutoSizeText(
'${widget.title} : $title',
style: TextStyle(
fontFamily: 'Montserrat',
fontWeight: FontWeight.w600,
color: QamaiThemeColor,
fontSize: 15
),
maxLines: 1,
overflow: TextOverflow.ellipsis,
maxFontSize: 15,
minFontSize: 9,
),
));
}
else{
return Card(
margin: EdgeInsets.only(left: 20,right: 20,top: 20),
child: ListTile(
leading:
Icon(widget.icon, color: QamaiGreen, size: 20.0),
title: AutoSizeText(
'LOADING...',
style: TextStyle(
fontFamily: 'Montserrat',
fontWeight: FontWeight.w600,
color: QamaiThemeColor,
fontSize: 15
),
maxLines: 1,
overflow: TextOverflow.ellipsis,
maxFontSize: 15,
minFontSize: 9,
),
));
}
});
}
}
Last changes were to add a condition checking if the snapshot has data or not. also saving the specific document field in a final variable helped a lot in my case that is
final title=userDocument[widget.text];
and finally an else condition was added to mimic the same card interface that shows a text which says loading. you can use CirculorIndicator if you want that will also work for me this was looking more natural for the interface.
