initState) to complete and display a |
CircularProgressIndicator as a placeholder. |
When the Future completes, it returns the DeferredBox widget. |
SomeWidget can then be used in the app as normal and |
won’t ever attempt to access the deferred Dart code until |
it has successfully loaded. |
<code_start>import 'package:flutter/material.dart'; |
import 'box.dart' deferred as box; |
class SomeWidget extends StatefulWidget { |
const SomeWidget({super.key}); |
@override |
State<SomeWidget> createState() => _SomeWidgetState(); |
} |
class _SomeWidgetState extends State<SomeWidget> { |
late Future<void> _libraryFuture; |
@override |
void initState() { |
super.initState(); |
_libraryFuture = box.loadLibrary(); |
} |
@override |
Widget build(BuildContext context) { |
return FutureBuilder<void>( |
future: _libraryFuture, |
builder: (context, snapshot) { |
if (snapshot.connectionState == ConnectionState.done) { |
if (snapshot.hasError) { |
return Text('Error: ${snapshot.error}'); |
} |
return box.DeferredBox(); |
} |
return const CircularProgressIndicator(); |
}, |
); |
} |

The loadLibrary() function returns a Future<void> |
that completes successfully when the code in the library |
is available for use and completes with an error otherwise. |
All usage of symbols from the deferred library should be |
guarded behind a completed loadLibrary() call. All imports |
of the library must be marked as deferred for it to be |
compiled appropriately to be used in a deferred component. |
If a component has already been loaded, additional calls |
to loadLibrary() complete quickly (but not synchronously). |
The loadLibrary() function can also be called early to |
trigger a pre-load to help mask the loading time.You can find another example of deferred import loading in |
Flutter Gallery’s lib/deferred_widget.dart.<topic_end> |

Step 3: Building the app |
Use the following flutter command to build a |
deferred components app:This command assists you by validating that your project |
is properly set up to build deferred components apps. |
By default, the build fails if the validator detects |
any issues and guides you through suggested changes to fix them.info Note |
You can opt out of building deferred components |
with the --no-deferred-components flag. |
This flag causes all assets defined under |
deferred components to be treated as if they were |
defined under the assets section of pubspec.yaml. |
All Dart code is compiled into a single shared library |
and loadLibrary() calls complete in the next event |
loop boundary (as soon as possible while being asynchronous). |
This flag is also equivalent to omitting the deferred-components: |
entry in pubspec.yaml.The |
flutter build appbundle command |
runs the validator and attempts to build the app with |
gen_snapshot instructed to produce split AOT shared libraries |
as separate .so files. On the first run, the validator will |
likely fail as it detects issues; the tool makes |
recommendations for how to set up the project and fix these issues.The validator is split into two sections: prebuild |
and post-gen_snapshot validation. This is because any |
validation referencing loading units cannot be performed |
until gen_snapshot completes and produces a final set |
of loading units.info Note |
You can opt to have the tool attempt to build your |
app without the validator by passing the |
--no-validate-deferred-components flag. |
This can result in unexpected and confusing |
instructions to resolve failures. |
This flag is meant to be used in |
custom implementations that do not rely on the default |
Play-store-based implementation that the validator checks for.The validator detects any new, changed, or removed |
loading units generated by gen_snapshot. |
The current generated loading units are tracked in your |
<projectDirectory>/deferred_components_loading_units.yaml file. |
This file should be checked into source control to ensure that |
changes to the loading units by other developers can be caught.The validator also checks for the following in the |
android directory:<projectDir>/android/app/src/main/res/values/strings.xml |
An entry for every deferred component mapping the key |
${componentName}Name to ${componentName}. |
This string resource is used by the AndroidManifest.xml |
of each feature module to define the dist:title property. |
For example:<projectDir>/android/<componentName> |
An Android dynamic feature module for |
each deferred component exists and contains a build.gradle |
and src/main/AndroidManifest.xml file. |
This only checks for existence and does not validate |
the contents of these files. If a file does not exist, |
it generates a default recommended one.<projectDir>/android/app/src/main/res/values/AndroidManifest.xml |
