paginated_search 2.1.1

A packaged aimed at reducing the code needed to write search with pagination.

Pagination made easy with Riverpod!

Features

• Show loading items when fetching next page
• Automatically load the next page of items as user scrolls towards the bottom of the list (infinite-scroll-view)
• Customizable: customize error, loader, and other views

Getting started

This package depends on https://pub.dev/packages/riverpod. Make sure you know how to use those packages.

Usage

Create a SearchProvider first. SearchProviders provide the search data to the pagination controller. You can use the paginated state to know more about the current state of pagination, which page you are on, how many items to get for each page, etc...

class MockSearchProvider extends SearchProvider<int> {
  @override
  Future<List<int>> performSearch(Ref ref, PaginatedState<int> state) async {
    await Future.delayed(const Duration(milliseconds: 400));
    return List.generate(state.pageSize, (index) => state.page * state.pageSize + index);
  }
}

Create a paginated controller provider to allow pagination view handle different flows.

final paginatedSearchControllerProvider = createPaginatedController(
  searchProvider: MockSearchProvider()
);

Now you can create your paginated search view:

class MyHomePage extends PaginatedSearchView<int> {
  const MyHomePage({
    super.key,
    required super.paginatedController,
    super.invalidateOnDispose = false,
  });

  @override
  ConsumerState<ConsumerStatefulWidget> createState() {
    return _MyHomePageState();
  }
}

class _MyHomePageState extends PaginatedSearchViewState<MyHomePage> with TickerProviderStateMixin {
  late final tabController = TabController(length: 2, vsync: this);

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
        body: AnnotatedRegion<SystemUiOverlayStyle>(
      value: SystemUiOverlayStyle.dark,
      child: SafeArea(
        child: CustomScrollView(
          controller: paginatedScrollController,
          slivers: [
            s16HeightBoxSliver,
            Text(
              'Paginated Search',
              style: context.textTheme.headlineMedium.bold,
            ).withPadding(s16HorizontalPadding).asSliver,
            const Text('Search through your data easily').withPadding(s16HorizontalPadding).asSliver,
            s32HeightBoxSliver,
            TextField(
              onChanged: (value) => ref.read(paginatedSearchControllerProvider.notifier).search(),
              decoration: const InputDecoration(
                prefixIcon: Icon(Icons.search_rounded),
                hintText: 'Search...',
                filled: true,
              ),
            ).withPadding(s16HorizontalPadding).asSliver,
            s32HeightBoxSliver,
            PaginatedSliverListView(
              paginatedController: paginatedSearchControllerProvider,
              itemBuilder: (item) => Card(
                elevation: 8,
                child: Text(
                  'Item $item',
                  style: TextStyle(color: context.colorScheme.onSecondaryContainer, fontWeight: FontWeight.bold),
                ).withPadding(s24Padding),
              ).withPadding(s4Vertical8Horizontal),
              loadingBuilder: (_) => const CircularProgressIndicator.adaptive().alignCenter.asSliver,
              errorBuilder: (context, error, st) => const Text("Error happened").asSliver,
            ),
            s32HeightBoxSliver,
            PaginatedBottomWidget(
              paginatedController: paginatedSearchControllerProvider,
              onGoingLoading: (context) => const CircularProgressIndicator.adaptive().alignCenter,
              onGoingErrorBuilder: (context, error, st) => const Text("Something went wrong").alignCenter,
            ).asSliver,
          ],
        ),
      ).withHeaderOverlayGlow(context: context),
    ));
  }
