How do I access a method of the state objects for a list of stateful widgets? (Flutter)
You can use a GlobalKey with the Widget's state to access the child Widget's methods:
class Main extends StatefulWidget { @override _MainState createState() => _MainState();}class _MainState extends State<Main> { GlobalKey<_HomeState> _key = GlobalKey(); @override Widget build(BuildContext context) { return Scaffold( appBar: AppBar( title: Text('StackOverflow'), ), body: Column( mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center, children: <Widget>[ Home(key: _key), RaisedButton( onPressed: () => _key.currentState.changeText('new text'), child: Text('Change text'), ) ], ) ); }}class Home extends StatefulWidget { Home({Key key}) : super(key: key); @override _HomeState createState() => _HomeState();}class _HomeState extends State<Home> { String text = 'initial text'; @override Widget build(BuildContext context) { return Center( child: Text(text) ); } void changeText(String newText){ setState(() { text = newText; }); }}
