Flutter ListView delete and undo operation

Question

How can I implement a ListView that has a Dismissible widget, and when I swipe, I can delete the item, but how can I bring it back when tapping say

Answer 1

If you are retrieving data from a remote server such as firestore, follow this example below:

StreamBuilder<QuerySnapshot>(
            stream: db.collection("collection name").snapshots(),
            // ignore: missing_return
            builder:
                (BuildContext context, AsyncSnapshot<QuerySnapshot> snapshot) {
              if (snapshot.hasError) {
                return Center(child: Text('Sorry something went wrong'));
              }

              if (snapshot.connectionState == ConnectionState.waiting) {
                return Center(child: CircularProgressIndicator());
              }
              return ListView.builder(
                  itemCount: snapshot.data.docs.length,
                  shrinkWrap: true,
                  physics: NeverScrollableScrollPhysics(),
                  itemBuilder: (context, index){
                    DocumentSnapshot document = snapshot.data.docs[index];
                    final documentID = snapshot.data.docs[index].id;
                    final list = snapshot.data.docs;
                    return Dismissible(
                      confirmDismiss: (direction) => promptUser(direction), //U can use showDialog to build this method for confirmation if need be.

                      // Each Dismissible must contain a Key. Keys allow
                      // Flutter to uniquely identify widgets.
                      key: Key(documentID),
                      onDismissed: (direction){
                        removeFromDb(documentID);
                        setState(() {
                          // Remove the item from the data source.
                          list.removeAt(index);

                          String action;
                          if (direction == DismissDirection.endToStart) {
                            removeFromDb(documentID);
                            action = "deleted";
                          }

                          _key.currentState
                            ..removeCurrentSnackBar()
                            ..showSnackBar(
                              SnackBar(
                                content: Text("Data $documentID $action"),
                                action: SnackBarAction(
                                    label: "UNDO",
                                    onPressed: () => setState(() => list.insert(index, deletedItem),)
                                ),
                              ),
                            );
                        });
                      },
                      // Show a red background as the item is swiped away
                      background: Container(
                        color: Colors.amber,

                        onTap: () => _onSelected(index),

Couldn't show screenshot but this will work alright especially if you understand Firestore

Answer 2

All you needed is

_list.insert(index, yourDeletedItem);

Here is the complete code with SnackBar added.

GlobalKey<ScaffoldState> _key = GlobalKey(); // added
List<String> _list = List.generate(10, (index) => "${index}");

@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
  return Scaffold(
    key: _key, // added
    appBar: AppBar(title: Text("App")),
    body: ListView.builder(
      itemCount: _list.length,
      itemBuilder: (context, index) {
        return Dismissible(
          key: Key(_list[index]),
          child: ListTile(title: Text(_list[index])),
          background: Container(color: Colors.red),
          onDismissed: (direction) {
            setState(() {
              // added this block 
              String deletedItem = _list.removeAt(index);
              _key.currentState
               ..removeCurrentSnackBar()
               ..showSnackBar(
                SnackBar(
                  content: Text("Deleted \"${deletedItem}\""),
                  action: SnackBarAction(
                    label: "UNDO",
                    onPressed: () => setState(() => _list.insert(index, deletedItem),) // this is what you needed
                  ),
                ),
              );
            });
          },
        );
      },
    ),
  );
}
