Flutter - How to save ThemeMode preference using Shared Preferences and SwitchTile

my goal is to save the ThemeMode preference even when the app is closed.
I tried to follow some guides but unsuccessfully, I need to know what I'm doing wrong.
Can someone help me and provide me with the right code?
provider.dart
class ThemeProvider extends ChangeNotifier {
ThemeMode themeMode = ThemeMode.light;
bool get isDarkMode => themeMode == ThemeMode.dark;
void toggleTheme(bool isOn) {
themeMode = isOn ? ThemeMode.dark : ThemeMode.light;
notifyListeners();
}
}
drawer.dart
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
final themeProvider = Provider.of<ThemeProvider>(context);
return Drawer(
child: ListView(
physics: const ScrollPhysics(),
padding: EdgeInsets.zero,
children: <Widget>[
SwitchListTile(
secondary: Icon(
themeProvider.isDarkMode ? Icons.dark_mode : Icons.light_mode,
),
title: const Text('Tema'),
value: themeProvider.isDarkMode,
onChanged: (value) {
final provider =
Provider.of<ThemeProvider>(context, listen: false);
provider.toggleTheme(value);
},
),
],
),
);
}

This is what i use for my app, it has three themes but works..
ThemeNotifier(IAppRepository appRepository) {
_appPrefsUseCase = AppPrefsUseCase(appRepository);
_loadFromPrefs();
}
toggleTheme(int index) {
var type = ThemeType.values[index];
_saveToPrefs(type);
notifyListeners();
}
void _loadFromPrefs() async {
final _theme = _appPrefsUseCase?.call<String>(AppKeys.theme);
_userTheme = ThemeType.values
.firstWhere((t) => t.toString() == _theme, orElse: () => _userTheme);
notifyListeners();
}
void _saveToPrefs(ThemeType type) {
_userTheme = type;
_appPrefsUseCase?.savePref(key: AppKeys.theme, value: type.toString());
}
}

how to save data and show it even after closing the app in flutter

class SimpleDialog extends StatelessWidget {
final GlobalKey<FormState> _formKey = GlobalKey<FormState>();
final TextEditingController _textEditingController =
TextEditingController();
String? baseurl;
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return AlertDialog(
title: Text('Base URL'),
content: Form(
key: _formKey,
child: TextFormField(
keyboardType: TextInputType.multiline,
maxLines: null,
controller: _textEditingController,
decoration: InputDecoration(
hintText: "Please Enter Base Url",
border:
OutlineInputBorder(borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(15)),
),
validator: (value) {
// return value!.isNotEmpty ? null : "Enter Base Url";
return Uri.parse(value.toString()).host == ''

: null;
},
)),
actions: <Widget>[
Center(
child: InkWell(
onTap: () {
if (_formKey.currentState!.validate()) {
baseurl = _textEditingController.text.toString().trim();
checkBaseUrl(baseurl, context);
print('baseurl=====base------$baseurl');
}
},
child: Container(
width: 100,
height: 40,
padding: EdgeInsets.all(12.0),
decoration: BoxDecoration(

child: Text(

),
)
],
);
}
Future<void> checkBaseUrl(String baseurl, context) async {
Response response;
try {
response = await http.get(Uri.parse(baseurl));
print(await response);
if (response.statusCode == 200) {
var snackBar = SnackBar(content: Text('Connected Successfully'));
ScaffoldMessenger.of(context).showSnackBar(snackBar);
var name = await baseurl;
await Prefs().seturlBase(name);
print(await '---pred---prefp---$name');
baseurl = await Prefs().geturlBase().toString();
Navigator.of(context).pop();
} else {
var snackBar = SnackBar(content: Text('Connection failed'));
ScaffoldMessenger.of(context).showSnackBar(snackBar);
Navigator.of(context).pop();
}
} catch (e) {
var snackBar = SnackBar(content: Text('Connection failed'));
ScaffoldMessenger.of(context).showSnackBar(snackBar);
Navigator.of(context).pop();
}
Class Prefs:
Future<void> seturlBase(String urlBase) async {
SharedPreferences prefs = await SharedPreferences.getInstance();
prefs.setString(this.urlBase, urlBase);
}
Future<String> geturlBase() async {
SharedPreferences prefs = await SharedPreferences.getInstance();
String urlBase;
urlBase = await prefs.getString(this.urlBase) ?? '';
return urlBase;
}
Check out the image, I need to save the URL as an input. After closing the app the URL should save and when users again open their app URL should be there for easy going.
How to achieve it, I used shared preferences.
.....................................................Thank you...........................

firt create a const for your base url
const String keyBaseUrl = 'baseUrl'
you can save it like this.
final SharedPreferences sharedPrefs = await SharedPreferences.getInstance();
sharedPrefs.setString(keyBaseUrl, baseurl);
and you can get it like this.
SharedPreferences prefs = await SharedPreferences.getInstance();
String? baseurl = prefs.getString(keyBaseUrl);

Agora in Flutter- navigating to the video chat screen more than one time keeps local video loading forever

I am using Agora for a one-to-one video chat purpose in Flutter.
User1 has an app to go online and user2 has another app to go online. After both of them go online, they can do video chat with one another. Both apps have almost similar codebase.
I have a screen or activity (say screen1) where an alert dialog is shown on tapping a button (say button1). On tapping the Continue button in the alert dialog, the dialog disappears and the user is taken to the screen (say screen2) where the video chat takes place. But after going to the video chat screen successfully, if the user taps on the back button on the mobile set then s/he is taken to screen1 and after tapping on button1, if the user taps on the Continue button in the popped up alert dialog, the user is again taken to screen2 but this time the local video (i.e. video of the user using the app) keeps loading for ever. Obviously I want the local video to load as it did for the first time.
I am gonna put my code here in such a way that you can easily run that.
Following code is for user1. For user2, no alert box is there in the app. Same code from user1 is used for user2 app, except the value of remoteUid is set to be 2 for user2 while this value is set to be 1 for user1. These are just two values identifying 2 users.
For user1:

In order to get the app ID and token, login to Agora site. After logging in, go to the 'Project Management' section to see the projects already created there. Under the Functions column, click on the key symbol and you will be taken to a page where you can generate a temporary token. On that page, give the channel name input the value 'InstaClass' as I have used this name in my code.
How to make the video chat work smoothly after the first time it works well ?

I think the problem is that when pressing back button you are just being taken to the previous screen and the call session is not being end. You can try by leaving the channel when pressing back button like :
_engine.leaveChannel();
End Call button sample
ElevatedButton(
onPressed: () {
_rtcEngine.leaveChannel();
Navigator.pop(context);
},
style: ButtonStyle(
shape: MaterialStateProperty.all(CircleBorder()),
backgroundColor: MaterialStateProperty.all(Colors.red),
padding: MaterialStateProperty.all(
EdgeInsets.fromLTRB(15, 15, 15, 12)),
),
child: Icon(
Icons.phone,
size: 30,
),
)
Back Button override using WillPopScope
return WillPopScope(
onWillPop: () async {
_rtcEngine.leaveChannel();
return true;
},
child: Scaffold(
body: Container(),
),
);

Adding phone number to contact in flutter/dart

I'm building a selectable checkbox contact list in flutter but if a contact has only an email and no number, an error is thrown. I want to create a loop to add a number of '99999' to the contacts phone number if they don't have one. Please can someone guide me with an explanation of what I should change to make this work? I have had a go, but I am quite new to flutter so I'm not completely certain on syntax etc...
Here is the part of the code that I am trying to put the function into.
setMissingNo()async {
Iterable<Contact> contactsToLoop = (await ContactsService.getContacts()).toList();
contactsToLoop.forEach((Contact) { contactsToLoop = []..add(Item.fromMap({'label': 'work', 'value': 99999})); });
}
//fetch contacts from setMissingNo
getAllContacts() async{
Iterable<Contact> _contacts = (await ContactsService.getContacts()).toList();
setState(() {
contacts = _contacts;
}
);
}
Here is my whole code
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
// TODO: make it ask for permissions otherwise the app crashes
import 'package:contacts_service/contacts_service.dart';
class Home extends StatefulWidget {
#override
_HomeState createState() => _HomeState();
}
class _HomeState extends State<Home> {
List<Contact> contacts = [];
List<Contact> contactsFiltered = [];
TextEditingController searchController = new TextEditingController();
#override
void initState() {
super.initState();
getAllContacts();
searchController.addListener(() => filterContacts());
}
//remove the +'s and spaces from a phone number before its searched
String flattenPhoneNumber(String phoneStr) {
return phoneStr.replaceAllMapped(RegExp(r'^(\+)|\D'), (Match m) {
return m[0] == "+" ? "+" : "";
});
}
//loop and set all contacts without numbers to 99999, pass new list to getAllContacts
setMissingNo()async {
Iterable<Contact> contactsToLoop = (await ContactsService.getContacts()).toList();
contactsToLoop.forEach((Contact) { contactsToLoop = []..add(Item.fromMap({'label': 'work', 'value': 99999})); });
}
//fetch contacts from setMissingNo
getAllContacts() async{
Iterable<Contact> _contacts = (await ContactsService.getContacts()).toList();
setState(() {
contacts = _contacts;
}
);
}
//filtering contacts function to match search term
filterContacts() {
List<Contact> _contacts = [];
_contacts.addAll(contacts);
if (searchController.text.isNotEmpty) {
_contacts.retainWhere((contact) {
String searchTerm = searchController.text.toLowerCase();
String searchTermFlatten = flattenPhoneNumber(searchTerm);
String contactName = contact.displayName.toLowerCase();
bool nameMatches = contactName.contains(searchTerm);
if (nameMatches == true) {
return true;
}
if (searchTermFlatten.isEmpty) {
return false;
}
var phone = contact.phones.firstWhere((phn) {
String phnFlattened = flattenPhoneNumber(phn.value);
return phnFlattened.contains(searchTermFlatten);
}, orElse: () => null);
return phone != null;
});
setState(() {
contactsFiltered = _contacts;
});
}
}
final selectedContacts = Set<Contact>();
#override

Updating all contacts listed on the device might take a long time depending on the size of the device's contact list. Add that the task is being done on the UI thread. You may want to consider using Isolate for the task to move away the load from the UI thread. If you can also provide the errors that you're getting, it'll help us get a picture of the issue.
Another thing is, the way you're approaching the issue might be impractical. Is it really necessary to write a placeholder phone number to the contacts? The issue likely stems from trying to fetch the number from a contact but the Object returns null. Perhaps you may want to consider only updating the phone number when the contact is selected.

Checkbox with many options

I created two checkboxes but after clicking on one of them both are marked, as in the picture below, could someone help me solve this problem?
only one can be marked,
my code:
class _LanguageSelectorState extends State<LanguageSelector> {
static final List<String> languagesList = application.supportedLanguages;
static final List<String> languageCodesList =
application.supportedLanguagesCodes;
final Map<dynamic, dynamic> languagesMap = {
languagesList[0]: languageCodesList[0],
languagesList[1]: languageCodesList[1],
};
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
backgroundColor: Colors.white,
appBar: AppBar(
backgroundColor: Colors.white,
iconTheme: IconThemeData(color: Colors.black),
title: Text(AppTranslations.of(context).text("settings_language"), style: TextStyle(color: Colors.black, letterSpacing: 1)),
elevation: 0.0,
centerTitle: true,
bottom: PreferredSize(child: Container(color: Colors.black, height: 0.1), preferredSize: Size.fromHeight(0.1),),
),
body: _buildLanguagesList()
);
}
String selectedLanguage = '';
_buildLanguagesList() {
return ListView.builder(
itemCount: languagesList.length,
itemBuilder: (context, index) {
return _buildLanguageItem(languagesList[index]);
},
);
}
bool _value = false;
_buildLanguageItem(String language) {
return CheckboxListTile(
title: Text(language),
value: _value,
onChanged: (value) {
setState(() {
_value = value;
application.onLocaleChanged(Locale(languagesMap[language]));
});
},
controlAffinity: ListTileControlAffinity.trailing,
);
}
}
thanks for any help :)
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Take a look at this example.. Hope that will answer your question how to use checkboxes in listView
List<Map<String, dynamic>> languagesList = [
{'value': false},
{'value': false}
];
ListView.builder(
itemCount: languagesList.length,
itemBuilder: (context, index) {
return CheckboxListTile(
title: Text(languagesList[index]['value'].toString()),
value: languagesList[index]['value'],
onChanged: (value) {
setState(() {
languagesList[index]['value'] = value;
});
},
controlAffinity: ListTileControlAffinity.trailing,
);
}),
The reason your approach didn't work was because you have assigned one variable to all your checkboxes so no wander your checkboxes were updated together

Because all the widgets created by the ListView has the same value _value, if one of the widget gets checked, the value for all of the widgets change as the all depend on the same variable.
Here is a demonstration of how you can do it. it may contain errors.
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
class LanguageItem extends StatefulWidget {
Key key;
bool isSelected = false;
YOURCLASS application;
String language;
LanguageItem({#required language, #required this.application, this.key
}):super(key:key);
#override
_LanguageItemState createState() => _LanguageItemState();
}
class _LanguageItemState extends State<LanguageItem> {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return CheckboxListTile(
title: Text(widget.language),
value: widget.isSelected,
onChanged: (value) {
setState(() {
widget.isSelected = value;
widget.application.onLocaleChanged(Locale(languagesMap[language]));
});
},
controlAffinity: ListTileControlAffinity.trailing,
);
}
}
