Why isn't the image changing using the Provider Package?


I'm working with the Provider Package on Flutter but can't work out why it's not changing the background image when I call mymodel.image. It should access the MyModal class and change the existing image: Image.asset('images/background_image.jpeg', fit: BoxFit.fill) with the one in the SmallImage screen.

mymodel.image = Image.asset('images/hello_image.png', fit: BoxFit.fill);

Which replaces the background image on the HomePage.

Solution

  • You have to call notifyListeners in your model when the image has changed otherwise the changenotifierprovider will not know that it needs to rebuild.

    One way of doing the would be to wrap the image field with a getter and setter and call notifyListeners in the setter after updating the underlying field.

    var Image _image;
    set image(Image value) {
      _image = value;
      notifyListeners();
    }
    Image get image => _image;
