How to update data in local json file in flutter - arrays

Question

I'm the junior flutter developer, and I would like to seek your support.
Currently, I would need to update data in a local JSON file in Flutter as below.
{"title":"ករណី ពិនិត្យផ្ទៃពោះ",
"lists":[
{
"id":"127",
"faci_code":"20018",
"y_txt":"2022",
"m_txt":"1",
"ind_id":"1",
"qty":"100",
"rec_by":"od123456",
"rec_date":"2022-06-27 13:50:31",
"lock_txt":"0",
"sec_id":"1",
"ind_num":"1",
"ind_eng":"# of ANC 1",
"ind_kh":"ចំនួនស្រ្ដីបានពិនិត្យផ្ទៃពោះលើកទី១ទាំងអស់",
"HFAC_NAME":"Boeng Pram",
"HFAC_NAMEKh":"បឺងប្រាំ",
"OD_CODE":"201",
"OD_NAME":"Thma Koul",
"OD_NAME_KH":"ថ្មគោល",
"PRO_CODE":"2",
"PROVINCE":"Battambang",
"PROVINCE_KH":"បាត់ដំបង"
}]}
I have searched and tried multiple solutions, but I couldn't resolve this issue yet. 
I hope someone can provide a solution in advance.
Regard, thanks.

You can't right files in project folders.
Try local storage.
I used path_provider package in this example for get application directory path to write json file on local storage.
1. Create data class
Note. this data class should match your stored json structure
class DataClass {
String name;
int age;
DataClass(this.name, this.age);
factory DataClass.fromJson(Map<String, dynamic> json) {
return DataClass(json['name'], json['age']);
}
Map<String, dynamic> toJson() {
return {
'name': name,
'age': age,
};
}
}
2.create and update json file
DataClass? updateJson;
void createJson() async {
String data = await rootBundle.loadString('assets/data.json');
Directory appDocDir = await getApplicationDocumentsDirectory();
File jsonFile = File("${appDocDir.path}/data.json");
jsonFile.writeAsStringSync(data);
updateJson = DataClass.fromJson(jsonDecode(data));
setState(() {});
}
void updateJsonFile() async {
Directory appDocDir = await getApplicationDocumentsDirectory();
File jsonFile = File("${appDocDir.path}/data.json");
//update
final jsonAsString = jsonFile.readAsStringSync();
updateJson = DataClass.fromJson(jsonDecode(jsonAsString));
updateJson?.name = "updated name";
updateJson?.age = _counter;
jsonFile.writeAsStringSync(jsonEncode(updateJson?.toJson()));
setState(() {});
}
