Quick Start

This is a simple & dummy example that covers the usage of

import 'package:fl_query/fl_query.dart';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

void main() {
runApp(const MyApp());
}

// A QueryJob is where the Logic of how the data should be
// fetched can defined. The task callback is a PURE Function
// & have access to external resources through the second
// parameter where the first parameter is the queryKey
final successJob = QueryJob<String, void>(
queryKey: "query-example",
task: (queryKey, externalData) => Future.delayed(
const Duration(seconds: 2),
() =>
"The work successfully executed. Data: key=($queryKey) value=${
Random.secure().nextInt(100)
}",
),
);

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
const MyApp({Key? key}) : super(key: key);


Widget build(BuildContext context) {
// QueryBowlScope creates a Bowl (metaphor for Collection/Store)
// for all the Queries & Mutations
return QueryBowlScope(
bowl: QueryBowl(),
child: MaterialApp(
title: 'Fl-Query Quick Start',
theme: ThemeData(
useMaterial3: true,
primarySwatch: Colors.blue,
),
home: const MyHomePage(),
),
);
}
}
class MyHomePage extends StatelessWidget {
const MyHomePage({Key? key}) : super(key: key);


Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Column(
crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.start,
children: [
Text(
"# Basic Query Example",
style: Theme.of(context).textTheme.headline5,
),
// QueryBuilder Widget provides the expected query
// instances through the builder callback based on
// the passed job & externalData argument
QueryBuilder<String, void>(
job: successJob,
externalData: null,
builder: (context, query) {
if (!query.hasData || query.isLoading || query.isRefetching) {
return const CircularProgressIndicator();
}
return Row(
children: [
Text(query.data!),
ElevatedButton(
child: const Text("Refetch"),
onPressed: () async {
await query.refetch();
},
), // Text
],
); // Row
},
), // QueryBuilder
],
);
}
}

If you want to explore more you can see the Example Application which covers a lot of use-cases

Also you can browse Spotube/fl_query_integrate branch of Spotube where Fl-Query is used in a real-world application experimentally
