I'm having a problem regarding dropdown menus and firestore, how can I bind a list of documents retrieved from firestore to a DropdownButton? Currently I'm having this error:
The argument type '(Map<dynamic, dynamic>) → DropdownMenuItem<String>' can't be assigned to the parameter type '(DocumentSnapshot) → dynamic'.
Code from my widget .dart:
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:cloud_firestore/cloud_firestore.dart';
class MessageList extends StatelessWidget {
MessageList({this.firestore});
final Firestore firestore;
var _mySelection;
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return StreamBuilder<QuerySnapshot>(
stream: firestore.collection('preciso-modelos').snapshots(),
builder: (BuildContext context, AsyncSnapshot<QuerySnapshot> snapshot) {
if (!snapshot.hasData) return const Text('Loading...');
return new DropdownButton<String>(
isDense: true,
hint: new Text("Select"),
value: _mySelection,
onChanged: (String newValue) {
print (_mySelection);
},
items: snapshot.data.documents.map((Map map) {
return new DropdownMenuItem<String>(
value: map["id"].toString(),
child: new Text(
map["name"],
),
);
}).toList(),
);},
);
}
}
Thanks!
new StreamBuilder<QuerySnapshot>(
stream: Firestore.instance.collection('categories').snapshots(),
builder: (context, snapshot){
if (!snapshot.hasData) return const Center(
child: const CupertinoActivityIndicator(),
);
var length = snapshot.data.documents.length;
DocumentSnapshot ds = snapshot.data.documents[length - 1];
_queryCat = snapshot.data.documents;
return new Container(

child: new DropdownButton(

StreamBuilder<QuerySnapshot>(
stream: Firestore.instance.collection('shops').snapshots(), builder: (context, snapshot) {
if (!snapshot.hasData)
return Center(
child: CupertinoActivityIndicator(),
);
return Container(
padding: EdgeInsets.only(bottom: 16.0),
child: Row(
children: <Widget>[
Expanded(
flex: 2,
child: Container(
padding: EdgeInsets.fromLTRB(12.0, 10.0, 10.0, 10.0),
child: Text(
"Shop",
),
)),
new Expanded(
flex: 4,
child: DropdownButton(
value: shopId,
isDense: true,
onChanged: (valueSelectedByUser) {
_onShopDropItemSelected(valueSelectedByUser);
},
hint: Text('Choose shop'),
items: snapshot.data.documents
.map((DocumentSnapshot document) {
return DropdownMenuItem<String>(
value: document.data['plant_name'] +
' ' +
document.data['shop_type'],
child: Text(document.data['plant_name'] +
' ' +
document.data['shop_type']),
);
}).toList(),
),
),
],
),
);
});
shopId is defined outside the build function.
Then the method for onChanged is:
void _onShopDropItemSelected(String newValueSelected) {
setState(() {
this.shopId = newValueSelected;
});
}
