import 'package:scrollview_observer/scrollview_observer.dart';

Getting Started

Take ListView as an example

BuildContext? _sliverListViewContext;

Create a ListView and record BuildContext in its builder callback

ListView _buildListView() {
  return ListView.separated(
    itemBuilder: (ctx, index) {
      if (_sliverListViewContext != ctx) {
        _sliverListViewContext = ctx;
      }
      ...
    },
    ...
  );
}

Create ListViewObserver

• child: Create ListView as a child of ListViewObserver
• sliverListContexts: In this callback, we need to return all BuildContext of the ListView those needs to be observed
• onObserve: This callback can listen for information about the child widgets those are currently being displayed

ListViewObserver(
  child: _buildListView(),
  sliverListContexts: () {
    return [if (_sliverListViewContext != null) _sliverListViewContext!];
  },
  onObserve: (resultMap) {
    final model = resultMap[_sliverListViewContext];
    if (model == null) return;

    // Prints the first child widget index that is currently being displayed
    print('firstChild.index -- ${model.firstChild?.index}');

    // Prints the index of all child widgets those are currently being displayed
    print('displaying -- ${model.displayingChildIndexList}');
  },
)

By default, ListView relevant data will only be observed when rolling.

If needed, you can use ListViewOnceObserveNotification triggered an observation manually.

ListViewOnceObserveNotification().dispatch(_sliverListViewContext);
