combine lists in one list in flutter dart-CodePudding

I have 100 sample of data coming from microcontroller via bluetooth in a form of Uint8List continuously. The data is coming through bluetooth buffer and I am using flutter bluetooth serial package to receive data via bluetooth. The data is arriving in this form:

[115, 43, 48, 46, 56, 54, 101, 0, 0, 115]
[43, 49, 46, 55, 49, 101, 0, 0, 115, 43]
[0, 0, 115, 43, 51, 46, 53, 57, 101, 0, 0, 115, 43, 51, 46] ... ect

(note that this is just an example of the result and the completed result is about 80 lists of Uint all coming to the same var which is data)

The size of the List containing the Uint is not consistent. So I want to combine all these coming data in one List.

This is the code I am trying to use which is not working as the data is not being combined.


connection!.input!.listen(_onDataReceived).onDone(() {
        if (isDisconnecting) {
          print('Disconnecting locally!');
        } else {
          print('Disconnected remotely!');
        }
        if (this.mounted) {
          setState(() {});
        }
      }


 Future<void> _onDataReceived(  Uint8List data ) async {

    List newLst =[];
    newLst.add(data);
    int i = 0;
    Queue stack = new Queue();
    stack.addAll(newLst);


    print(data);
    print(stack);



  }

How can I combine all the coming data in one big list and store it for later operations.

Try below code

void main() {
  List l1 = [115, 43, 48, 46, 56, 54, 101, 0, 0, 115];
  List l2 = [43, 49, 46, 55, 49, 101, 0, 0, 115, 43];
  List l3 = [0, 0, 115, 43, 51, 46, 53, 57, 101, 0, 0, 115, 43, 51, 46];

  l1.addAll(l2   l3);
  print(l1);
}

Output:

[115, 43, 48, 46, 56, 54, 101, 0, 0, 115, 43, 49, 46, 55, 49, 101, 0, 0, 115, 43, 0, 0, 115, 43, 51, 46, 53, 57, 101, 0, 0, 115, 43, 51, 46]

If I interpret you correctly, you are getting a list of lists with values. So you can try this:

void main() {
  List<List<int>> myList = [
    [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6],
    [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6],
    [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
  ];

  final res = myList.reduce((value, element) => value   element); // This is obviously what does the concatenation..

  print(res);
}

Which will print:

[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]

If I'm not wrong, connection!.input is a Stream.

If so, then seems your problem isn't about lists as you said, but about Streams.

Since you are listening to a Stream:

connection!.input!.listen(_onDataReceived).onDone(...);

And you want to alter, modify or process the upcoming data from a Stream then you probably want to use some of the native Stream API.

In this particular case, you want to reduce all upcoming events (list of Uint8List) and process into a single output (a single Uint8List containing all data), then you can use Stream<T>.reduce which returns a Future<T> that resolves when there are no more upcoming events (Stream did emit the done event).

You don't even need to listen since you want just to process the single output not each event individually:

final Uint8List mergedData = await connection!.input!.reduce((previous, current) => Uint8List.fromList([...previous, ...current]));

Take a look at this DartPad snippet to see a full example.

To see full API, check out the official Dart documentation for Streams, it's complete and didatic.
