<topic_start>Create lists with different types of items
|
You might need to create lists that display different types of content.
|
For example, you might be working on a list that shows a heading
|
followed by a few items related to the heading, followed by another heading,
|
and so on.Here’s how you can create such a structure with Flutter:<topic_end>
|
<topic_start>
|
1. Create a data source with different types of items
|
<topic_end>

|
Types of items
|
To represent different types of items in a list, define
|
a class for each type of item.In this example, create an app that shows a header followed by five
|
messages. Therefore, create three classes: ListItem, HeadingItem,
|
and MessageItem.
|
<code_start>/// The base class for the different types of items the list can contain.
|
abstract class ListItem {
|
/// The title line to show in a list item.
|
Widget buildTitle(BuildContext context);
|
/// The subtitle line, if any, to show in a list item.
|
Widget buildSubtitle(BuildContext context);
|
}
|
/// A ListItem that contains data to display a heading.
|
class HeadingItem implements ListItem {
|
final String heading;
|
HeadingItem(this.heading);
|
@override
|
Widget buildTitle(BuildContext context) {
|
return Text(
|
heading,
|
style: Theme.of(context).textTheme.headlineSmall,
|
);
|
}
|
@override
|
Widget buildSubtitle(BuildContext context) => const SizedBox.shrink();
|
}
|
/// A ListItem that contains data to display a message.
|
class MessageItem implements ListItem {
|
final String sender;
|
final String body;
|
MessageItem(this.sender, this.body);
|
@override
|
Widget buildTitle(BuildContext context) => Text(sender);
|
@override
|
Widget buildSubtitle(BuildContext context) => Text(body);
|
}<code_end>
|
<topic_end>
|
<topic_start>
|
Create a list of items
|
Most of the time, you would fetch data from the internet or a local
|
database and convert that data into a list of items.For this example, generate a list of items to work with. The list
|
contains a header followed by five messages. Each message has one
|
of 3 types: ListItem, HeadingItem, or MessageItem.
|
<code_start>final items = List<ListItem>.generate(
|
1000,
|
(i) => i % 6 == 0
|
? HeadingItem('Heading $i')
|
: MessageItem('Sender $i', 'Message body $i'),
|
);<code_end>
|
<topic_end>
|
<topic_start>
|
2. Convert the data source into a list of widgets
|
To convert each item into a widget,
|
use the ListView.builder() constructor.In general, provide a builder function that checks for what type
|
of item you’re dealing with, and returns the appropriate widget
|
for that type of item.
|
<code_start>ListView.builder(
|
// Let the ListView know how many items it needs to build.
|
itemCount: items.length,
|
// Provide a builder function. This is where the magic happens.
|
// Convert each item into a widget based on the type of item it is.
|
itemBuilder: (context, index) {
|
final item = items[index];
|
return ListTile(
|
title: item.buildTitle(context),
|
subtitle: item.buildSubtitle(context),
|
);
|
},
|
)<code_end>
|

|
<code_start>import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
|
void main() {
|
runApp(
