tags in my code is a List which is comes from previous page,
I want to be able to remove and add items to it in my current page,
first I tried to initialize it in my initState but when I want to remove tags it doesn't work.
I guessed it is about the initialization, so I removed it from initState but now I am getting this error message Field 'tags' has not been initialized. I will attach my full code and I appreciate any suggestions about it. Thanks.
PS: I tried initializing tags with tags=[] in my initState but I can't remove any of the tags. It has a GestureDetector to remove tags, when I press it nothing happens. I guess initializing in the build function causes it, but I don't know where to initialize it that I could be able to edit it while the list is coming from another screen.
also when I added tags = widget.tags.where((e) => e != null && e != "").toList(); to my initiState and I inspect tags value, there is an empty string in addtion to other values at the end of the list.

CodePudding user response：
Just initialize it
List<dynamic> tags = [];
PS: I tried initializing tags with tags=[] in my initState but I can't remove any of the tags.
You need to add setState to rebuild the page.
CodePudding user response：
tags = widget.tags.where((e) => e != null && e != "").toList();
This line in build method will constantly take value from widget.tags and create a list of items thats not null and empty
Please add this in initState
