Can we access the error generated during resolving future in GetxController in UI the same way we can do in future with snapshot.error
When using Future builder we can do snapshot.hasError and then we can update the UI based on the error like:
image
Future<List<String> getNamesFromApi() async {
// fetch from api
// return result
}
...
FutureBuilder(
future: getNamesFromApi(),
builder: (context,snapshot) =>
snapshot.hasError
? Text("error reading data")
: snapshot.hasData
? Text(snapshot.data[0])
: SizedBox.shrink()
however in Getx when we resolve future inside the MyController and assign that to a variable in the controller like:
final List<String> name;
@override
onInit() async {
name = await getNamesFromApi();
update();
}
and then use that in ui like:
GetBuilder<MyController>(
builder: (controller) =>
controller.name != null
? Text(controller.name[0])
: SizedBox.shrink(),
)
here we have no way to know if the future resolved with an error. The value will just be null
Is there a way to do this in Getx without using a package for functional programming concepts such as either.
