So I am creating a chat-app. I need to show the list of all users in the firebase by mentioning their user-name and email. I am getting the above stated error on line 56. Also if I remove the null check operator in the line

QuerySnapshot <Map<String, dynamic>>? searchResultSnapshot;

And replace late at the beginning it will produce late initialization error.

import 'package:chatapp/services/database.dart';
import 'package:cloud_firestore/cloud_firestore.dart';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

class Search extends StatefulWidget {
  _Search createState() => _Search();
}

class _Search extends State<Search> {
  QuerySnapshot <Map<String, dynamic>>? searchResultSnapshot;
  bool isLoading = false;
  bool haveUserSearched = false;
  DatabaseMethods databaseMethods = new DatabaseMethods();
  var searchEditingController = TextEditingController();

  InitiateSearch() async {
    if (searchEditingController.text.isNotEmpty) {
      setState(() {
        isLoading = true;
      });
      await databaseMethods.GetUserByUsername(searchEditingController.text)
          .then((snapshot) {
        searchResultSnapshot = snapshot;
        print("$searchResultSnapshot");
        setState(() {
          isLoading = false;
          haveUserSearched = true;
        });
      });
    }
  }

  Widget UserList() {
    return Container(
      height: 500,
      child: ListView.builder(
          itemCount: searchResultSnapshot?.docs.length,
          itemBuilder: (context, index) {
            return UserTile(
              searchResultSnapshot?.docs[index].data()["userName"],
              searchResultSnapshot?.docs[index].data()["userEmail"],
            );
          }),
    );
  }

  Widget UserTile(String? userName, String? userEmail) {
    return Container(
      padding: EdgeInsets.symmetric(horizontal: 24, vertical: 16),
      child: Row(
        children: [
          Column(

              Text(

                style: TextStyle(color: Colors.white, fontSize: 16),
              ),
              Text(

                style: TextStyle(color: Colors.white, fontSize: 16),
              )
            ],
          ),
          Spacer(),
          GestureDetector(

              ), //Search
              SizedBox(
                height: 12,
              ),
              UserList(),
            ],
          ),
        ));
  }
}

Here is my Database file.

import 'package:cloud_firestore/cloud_firestore.dart';

class DatabaseMethods {
  GetUserByUsername(String username) async {
    return await
    FirebaseFirestore.instance
        .collection('users')
        .get()
        .then((QuerySnapshot querySnapshot) {
      querySnapshot.docs.forEach((doc) {
        print(doc["userName"]);
      });
    });
  }

  Future<void> UploadUserInfo(userData) async {
    FirebaseFirestore.instance.collection("users").add(userData).catchError((e) {
      print(e.toString());
    });
  }
}

I would really appritiate your help on this.

CodePudding user response：

In place of

return UserTile(
          searchResultSnapshot?.docs[index].data()["userName"],
          searchResultSnapshot?.docs[index].data()["userEmail"],
        );

use this

return UserTile(
          searchResultSnapshot?.docs[index].data()["userName"]??"",
          searchResultSnapshot?.docs[index].data()["userEmail"]??"",
        );

And replace the String? with String in (Remove ?)

Widget UserTile(String userName, String userEmail)

and use the value like the following

Text(userName,style: TextStyle(color: Colors.white, fontSize: 16),),

CodePudding user response：

You can replace below piece of code

 children: [
              Text(
                userName!,                                               //error here
                style: TextStyle(color: Colors.white, fontSize: 16),
              ),
              Text(
                userEmail!,
                style: TextStyle(color: Colors.white, fontSize: 16),
              )
            ],

with

 children: [
              Text(
                userName ?? "",                                               //error here
                style: TextStyle(color: Colors.white, fontSize: 16),
              ),
              Text(
                userEmail ?? "",
                style: TextStyle(color: Colors.white, fontSize: 16),
              )
            ],
