Endless Firestore #
An extension of the Endless infinite scroll view library with support for Firestore streams.
Basic List Example #
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:endless_firestore/endless_firestore.dart';

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
home: Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(title: Text('Endless Firestore stream list view')),
body: EndlessFirestoreStreamListView<String>(
// A Firestore stream takes a query to use for fetching items.
query: FirebaseFirestore.instance.collection('users').where('name', isEqualTo: 'Tester'),
// The batch delegate determines how many new items to fetch per batch and optionally the maximum number of batches to fetch.
batchDelegate: EndlessFirestoreStreamBatchDelegate(
batchSize: 5,
maxBatches: 10,
),
itemBuilder: (
context, {
required item,
required index,
required totalItems,
}) {
return Text(item);
},
),
),
);
}
}

The EndlessFirestoreStreamListView displays documents loaded from the specified Query into a scrollable list. The scroll view subscribes to the documents returned from the query with the Query.snapshots API using the Query.limit approach described in this video.

Note that this approach incurs a re-read of all current documents when loading successive batches so be aware of the read pricing concerns there. This trade-off was made because of the advantages that come from limit-based batching as best described in the link above.

Basic Grid Example #
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:endless_firestore/endless_firestore.dart';

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
home: Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(title: Text('Endless Firestore stream grid view')),
body: EndlessFirestoreStreamGridView<String>(
batchDelegate: EndlessFirestoreStreamBatchDelegate(
batchSize: 5,
maxBatches: 10,
),
query: FirebaseFirestore.instance.collection('users').where('name', isEqualTo: 'Tester'),
// The only difference between the basic list and grid view is that a grid specifies its delegate such as how many items
// to put in the cross axis.
gridDelegate: const SliverGridDelegateWithFixedCrossAxisCount(
crossAxisCount: 3,
),
itemBuilder: (
context, {
required item,
required index,
required totalItems,
}) {
return Text(item);
},
),
),
);
}
}
