Flutter how to convert String to List

Question

I have this String.

  var String a = \'[\"one\", \"two\", \"three\", \"four\"]\';
  var ab = (a.split(\',\'));
  print(ab[0]); // return [\"one\         


        

Answer 1

Your string looks like a valid JSON, so this should work for you:

import 'dart:convert';
...

var a = '["one", "two", "three", "four"]';
var ab = json.decode(a);
print(ab[0]); // returns "one"
