Accessing a Hash Variable Across Classes in Flutter

When developing applications with Flutter, it's common to encounter challenges while trying to access variables from different classes. A frequent issue developers face is attempting to retrieve a variable stored in one class (like a hash variable) for use in another class, such as a Cubit. In this guide, we delve into a specific scenario to show you how to effectively handle this.

The Problem

You have a Flutter application where you need to access a hash variable from a BlockInfoPage within a BlockinfoCubit to make an API request using a block_repository. The hash variable holds vital information that you need to retrieve from the blockchain.

Here's a simplified version of the code structure:

BlockinfoCubit - Manages the state of block information.

BlockInfoPage - Displays block information and takes a hash as a parameter.

BlockInfoRepository - Handles API requests to get block information.

The Solution: Two Effective Methods

To solve the problem of accessing the hash variable, you have two main methods.

Method 1: Making the Variable Static

Make the hash Variable Static
Change your hash variable in BlockInfoPage like this:

Access it from the Cubit
You can retrieve the hash variable using:

This method allows you to access the variable without instantiating the whole class. It's a straightforward way to get the variable efficiently.

Method 2: Instantiation of the Class

Instantiate the BlockInfoPage
You can access the variable by creating an instance of the class:

This method requires the instantiation of BlockInfoPage, meaning it will build the entire class anew each time you call it.

Additional Options: Using Global Variables

If the above methods do not fit well within your structure, consider using a global variable. Here’s how:

Declare the Global Variable
Move the hash variable outside of any class to make it global.

Import the Global Variable
Ensure that you import the file containing the global variable.

Accessing the Global Variable
Use the name of the variable directly as you would within its original file:

Note that global variables do not retain their values unless explicitly set, meaning you might need to manage their states manually.

Summary

Correctly accessing a variable from one class in another class can enhance the efficiency and performance of your Flutter application. Whether you choose to:

Use static variables for easier access,

Create new instances of classes, or

Implement global variables for accessibility,

Each method has its own advantages and can be selected based on your specific requirements.

By following the steps outlined in this post, you can successfully manage variable access across different parts of your application, ensuring a smoother developer experience and a more efficient application.
