*After many documentations readed, I saw that Flutter is not compatible with strapi v4, to use it with Flutter, you have to use a strapi project under v4.
I'm trying to connect my Flutter app to Strapi.
I followed the official Strapi tuto for flutter and some videos on Youtube about it but I'm stuck to read datas.
I have this error while my view begins:
_TypeError (type '_InternalLinkedHashMap<String, dynamic>' is not a subtype of type 'Iterable')
This is my full code for this view:
import 'dart:convert';
import 'dart:async';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:http/http.dart' as http;
import 'package:strapitests/user.dart';
class MyList extends StatefulWidget {
const MyList({Key? key}) : super(key: key);
@override
State<MyList> createState() => _MyListState();
}
class _MyListState extends State<MyList> {
List<User> users = [];
Future getAll() async {
var data = await http.get(Uri.parse("http://10.0.2.2:1337/api/apis"));
var jsonData = json.decode(data.body);
for (var u in jsonData) {
users.add(
u['name'],
);
}
return users;
}
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Container(
child: FutureBuilder(
future: getAll(),
builder: (BuildContext context, AsyncSnapshot snapshot) {
if (snapshot.data == null) {
return Container(
child: const Center(
child: Text("Loading..."),
),
);
} else {
return ListView.builder(
itemCount: snapshot.data.length,
itemBuilder: (BuildContext context, int index) {
return ListTile(
title: Text(snapshot.data[index].name),
subtitle: Text(snapshot.data[index].email),
);
},
);
}
},
),
);
}
}
And this is my 'User' class:
class User {
String name;
String email;
String password;
User(this.name, this.email, this.password);
}
While i make a 'GET' on my browser, the result is:
"data": [
{
"id": 1,
"attributes": {
"name": "john",
"password": "dfdf",
"email": "[email protected]",
"createdAt": "2022-05-23T20:38:27.725Z",
"updatedAt": "2022-05-23T20:38:28.466Z",
"publishedAt": "2022-05-23T20:38:28.464Z"
}
},
{
"id": 2,
"attributes": {
"name": "text",
"password": "mp",
"email": "mail",
"createdAt": "2022-05-23T20:47:56.717Z",
"updatedAt": "2022-05-23T20:47:56.717Z",
"publishedAt": "2022-05-23T20:47:56.712Z"
}
},
{
"id": 3,
"attributes": {
"name": "name",
"password": "mp",
"email": "mail",
"createdAt": "2022-05-23T20:52:07.911Z",
"updatedAt": "2022-05-23T20:52:07.911Z",
"publishedAt": "2022-05-23T20:52:07.910Z"
}
}
],
Thanks for helping!
CodePudding user response：
First, you will need to decode your users from JSON. Since this is a simple class, you can just write a quick fromJson constructor for your User class:
class User {
String name;
String email;
String password;
User(this.name, this.email, this.password);
factory User.fromJson(Map<String, dynamic> json) {
final attributes = json['attributes'];
return User(
attributes['name'],
attributes['email'],
attributes['password'],
);
}
}
Next, the data you're receiving is a map, which cannot be iterated through with a for-loop.
Instead, iterate over the list keyed by "data", and decode each element with the User.fromJson constructor we just defined:
Future<List<User>> getAll() async {
var data = await http.get(Uri.parse("http://10.0.2.2:1337/api/apis"));
var jsonData = json.decode(data.body);
final users = jsonData['data'];
return users.map((userJson) => User.fromJson(userJson)).toList();
}
Finally, since you're using a FutureBuilder, you actually don't need this to be a stateful widget, and you don't need to store users as a property on your class. You can simply use the list returned in the snapshot - Though you'll need change your code so that the Future is a final member so that the widget doesn't construct a new future on each build:
class MyList extends StatelessWidget {
late final Future<List<User>> users = getAll();
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Container(
child: FutureBuilder(
future: users,
// ...
),
);
}
}
Also — and this is beside the point in terms of your question — but it's a good idea to look into ways of avoiding storing passwords on your server. If you do store passwords, definitely avoid returning them in any API responses for a production app :).
Here are a couple of good articles on the topic:

I followed your code and improve my 'User' call but now it returns this error:
_TypeError (type 'List' is not a subtype of type 'FutureOr<List>')
This is my updated code:
import 'dart:convert';
import 'dart:async';
import 'package:provider/provider.dart';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:http/http.dart' as http;
import 'package:strapitests/user.dart';
class MyList extends StatelessWidget {
const MyList({Key? key}) : super(key: key);
Future<List<User>> getAll() async {
var data = await http.get(Uri.parse("http://10.0.2.2:1337/api/apis"));
var jsonData = json.decode(data.body);
final users = jsonData['data'];
return users.map((userJson) => User.fromJson(userJson)).toList();
}
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
body: Container(
child: FutureBuilder(
future: getAll(),
builder: (BuildContext context, AsyncSnapshot snapshot) {
if (snapshot.data == null) {
return Container(
child: const Center(
child: Text("Loading..."),
),
);
} else {
return ListView.builder(
itemCount: snapshot.data.length,
itemBuilder: (BuildContext context, int index) {
return ListTile(
title: Text(snapshot.data[index].name),
subtitle: Text(snapshot.data[index].email),
);
},
);
}
},
),
),
);
}
}
