🚀 A Flutter project application that make use of the state manager GetX.
This project was created with the purpose to apply most of concepts implementeds by the state manager GetX. Using a small flux of screens to simulate a shopping cart, this project implements a folder architeture that make sense for placing all the widgets tree from a screen to have secure access of its parent controllers.
In general, this project is part of a studies to understand the best architecture pattern to implement in flutter projects that works for me and i hope to works for you too.
I made use of some approaches to make this project simple and objective to fulfill your proposal, one of these approaches is the use of internal data as a json file and images in assets folder to simulate an fetch api, so you can fork this project and have no worriy about outside resources.
- Page with list of produts;
- Switch between categories;
- List products for a selected category;
- Like in products
(i tried to make this project uncomplicated, so the state of likes is lost when switch between categories); - Page of product to see more information;
- Add selected product to cart;
- Counter of products in cart;
- Page of products in cart;
- Increase/Decrese quantity for each product;
- Increse a max of 10 unities per product;
- Delete product from cart;
- A totalizer of products prices in cart;
- Purchase (It clears the cart and returns to home);
For this project, i focused to solve the problem using only the GetX resources and following the below structure i feel good about the results, the simplicity to understand the project and its rules.
- /models
# This folder was used to place all the possible entities
# who has the responsability to keep data making use of
# Rx (An observer for variable in GetX). Even having other
# options, i decided tu use Rx for every variable as a pattern.
- /pages
# This is the folder who we have to get more attention and
# careful to manage the structure becaouse GetX can be used in
# many different ways, and a wrong way maybe can broken you app
# in the future, so because that, i defined some rules:
- /page_name
# RULE 1: For all pages, we have to create a folder
# named with our page name where we can create the
# appropriate files.
- index.dart
# RULE 2: Every page must to have an index.dart as a
# unique point of access responsible for initialize this
# page; also, this file must start with a GetBuilder
# component, who will initialize our controller and
# provide it for all the widget childrens on the tree
# of page.
- controller.dart
# RULE 3: Every page, in most of cases, will need to
# implement a controller to take care about some
# particular data and functions for this page. How this
# controller is initialized in a GetBuilder on index.
# dart, it only will be available and alive while this
# page is in use, for any other case, this controller
# will not be available.
- /widgets
# RULE 4: How our controller only will be available
# while page is instanciated, any widget placed in this
# folder can make use of Get.find(PageNameController)
# and access its data and functions. Because that, all
# the widgets placed here must to have a direct
# relationship with the page and cannot be moved to
# other folders in any circunstances, if it happens, the
# code will not break for IDE or compilations, but
# probably you will have problems in runtime because it
# widget will try to use a controllar that could be
# unavailable.
- /utils
# Used for generic purposes the utils implements functions
# to be used in the most parts of our project without
# dependencies of other files.
- /widgets
# Called for many peoples of `shared` or `common`, i decided
# to call this folder of `widgets` because only shared widgets
# is placed here, and also, this widgets cannot depend of other
# files to keep working anywhere.
- controller.dart
# This file is a global controller who take care about some
# global data and functions, can be used by any widget on the
# project just making use of Get.find(AppController) in any
# widget who needs to access this data or functions. It is
# possible because this controller is initialized on main.dart
# and teorycally, never should be disposed because main.dart
# represents our instanced application.
- main.dart
# This file is the point of start of application, it means that
# if it dispose, the app should closes too. This file has the
# responsability to initialize the GetX context, start our
# AppController for global purposes and implement all
# the route screens to allow navigations. Also, to initialize
# the AppController in this file, i make use of
# Get.put(AppController()) because the use of named_routes in
# the GetMaterialApp does not instance any Widget direcly,
# therefore, it cannot be used with GetBuild.
- routes.dart
# For this project, i decided to make use of named routed
# because GetX implements some intersting things with it, and
# the most interting resource is the possibility to pass
# arguments over the route like is made with web projects. In
# general this is very good for a clear understood of the pages
# structure and any page who implements this arguments can
# access it making use of Get.parameters["argument_name"]. Well
# this file has the only responsability to map all the pages of
# our application and return an Array for out main.dart.
