StreamBuilder issue - snapshot.connectionState == ConnectionState.waiting when a TextFormField widge

Time:05-26

UPDATE
I realised that the refresh is occurring due to the home_page.dart file under the StreamBuilder. This is the if statement (if (snapshot.connectionState == ConnectionState.waiting) { return const Center(child: CircularProgressIndicator());) that keeps resulting in the refresh screen and I'm not sure why. Please let me know if anyone knows why thanks!


I am currently making a room booking app. I have implemented the google authentication portion using SteamBuilder. However, once logged into the app, I have a Form to fill in the details - which I would eventually want to save to Cloud Firestore.

However, now I'm facing the issue that every time I click on the TextFormField widget it refreshes my entire screen. Here is the structure for my code and the code subsequently.

  1. main.dart - Main file with routes
  2. home_page.dart - Basically the file which consists of the Stream. Determines if user if logged in and whether to bring to login page or into the app.
  3. login_page.dart - The page to log in with GoogleAuth
  4. booking_pages.dart - Main file for the app's backbone. Consist of the scaffold which can navigate between the 2 main pages in the app
  5. book_room.dart - The page which has the Form and TextFormFields inside
  6. my_profile.dart - Merely displays user profile from google.

To test, I even included a TextFormField inside of my_profile.dart and realized that it also refreshes and brings me to book_room.dart immediately.

Having read about this, it seems to be something to do with Streams but I can't seem to understand how to fix this. All my code is below. Any help is appreciated thanks!

CodePudding user response:

My humble advice is to get a good practice of using a stateless/ful widget over a function flutter would not come up with them if you just could solve problems with functions

In short: better performance and optimization

If you have time to learn more check this links: this and this

I think swapping widget functions in the root of your scaffold will be sufficient to solve refresh

CodePudding user response:

You can't use setState() inside method onChanged() of TextFormField in class BookRoom

All class BookRoom in file book_room.dart will rebuild

Try Extract Widget TextFormField to new StatefulWidget() class in different file
