Flutter screen change callback - mobile

I want to get a callback when the screen is changed, so I can stop my recurring request that runs on that specific screen. “dispose” is only called when Navigator.pop is used, but not when Navigator.push is called. Is there a way to detect that the screen is changed and not being shown at the moment?

Register a RouteObserver on your MaterialApp or WidgetsApp and make your stateful widget a RouteAware. Sample code here: RouteObserver

When swiping react native app - screens shows twice

Live example https://snack.expo.dev/su1-U5DZc
If I swipe screens with buttons - everything okay, but if I swipe with gesture - screens shows twice. Why so? Does this setWtf(state.index);
const onTouchStart = (e, state, context) => {
console.log('onTouchStart: ' + state.index);
setWtf(state.index);
};
make index stored somewhere by reference and then get updated?
Yes it was due to setWtf(state.index);. There is a reported bug of render issue when updating state in their official git page.
They are saying to downgrade react-native-swiper to version 1.5.5
or you could follow other solutions mentioned here : Update the state breaks the slides
Without more information, it's impossible to pinpoint the exact cause of the problem you're experiencing, although it's conceivable that the problem is connected to the way your code handles touch events.
Your code is probably adjusting the value of state.index depending on the gesture when you swipe between screens, and then refreshing the screen display based on the value of state.index. The screen display may update twice if state.index is being updated by reference because the value is being modified twice: once by the gesture and once by the setWtf function.
Using a different variable to hold the current screen index and only updating the value of state.index when the user interacts with the buttons is one potential fix for this problem. This should prevent the screen from being displayed more than once and ensure that the value of state.index is only modified once.
It's important to keep in mind that the setWtf function you specified in your query could not be connected to the problem you're having. Without more information, it's difficult to say for sure whether this function is being used to update another state in your application.

Call multiple funtions with single onClick in ReactJs

This is my profile settings page: Code
My buttons already call onClick function, but i wanna add saveInfo to my "save" button.
I just noticed that after clicking "save" the only field that remains saved is First Name, can you explain to me why?
I adjusted your code for this to work properly.
Here is an updated sandbox https://codesandbox.io/s/charming-kapitsa-kznoi?file=/src/UserInfo.js
I extracted all of your additional code so it would be easier for me to debug, which is why you won't see some of the code in your original example.
Quite simply, the issue was that you were rendering an empty <input> when saved was not true.
If you want to send your saveInfo simply set the value of each input (when saved isn't true) to the value of your saveInfo.
I left comments within to help understand.

How to update previous screen params from current screen in react-navigation 5

In react-navigation 4, I was passing a function as a param to the navigated screen. But in react-navigation 5, this has a warning which is not recommended. So now how can I update params of previous screen from current screen ?
Example:
I am in a chat group.
I click on group image.
In the new screen I update group name.
Now I return back by clicking hardware back button.
And now the group name should be new updated name.
So how this is possible ??
I know I can use navigation.navigate() to go back with params, but in most cases there users use clicking on hardware back button instead of clicking the back arrow.
You can use the new way to handle Hardware Back Button described here: https://reactnavigation.org/docs/en/custom-android-back-button-handling.html#__docusaurus
But I don't think you should go this way. You should connect the group name to a local storage, and watch this variable in the render function. It's better to let the render to update itself instead of trying to do some force refresh with the back handler.
You can use a store (using redux, hooks or using local storage). Then you can use Navigation events => focus method when the screen comes into focus. Then you can get the updated store data and re-render the UI.

How to create my own onChangeComplete function for input type color on React

With react-color https://casesandberg.github.io/react-color/ .
I can use ready-made onChangeComplete function from react-color.
But I wonder how can I create that onChangeComplete by using input type color tag.
I tried onBlur but the color won't change until user clicks or presses tab
On the other hand, using onChange keep firing updates.
Because currently I'm using redux state, so dispatching update continuously when I drag and choose color isn't a good way.
Any ideas how to create onChangeComplete?
It depends on how you'd like to define a change. To prevent continuous updates every time the mouse moves, you'll probably want to update Redux state only when the mouse stops moving. (This seems to be the behaviour on the page you linked to).
You could use the following JavaScript to detect when the mouse stops moving:
let timer;
window.addEventListener('mousemove', function (e) {
console.log('Mouse moving');
clearTimeout(timer);
timer = setTimeout(() => console.log('Mouse stopped'), 300);
});
Then, try putting the above code inside your ComponentDidMount() method and replace console.log('Mouse stopped') with whatever Redux action you want to dispatch!
300 is the number of milliseconds without movement that will trigger the action, which could be changed depending on how sensitive you want your app to feel.
Lastly, remember to remove the event listener in your ComponentWillUnmount() method.
https://github.com/casesandberg/react-color/blob/7ee60d845e5d5e11e4f6ecb895b2d9755c59d09d/src/components/common/ColorWrap.js#L30
Here is the code that how react-color implemented onChangeComplete.
It is hard coded using debounce.
I put the link there for anyone interested in using that solution

Store update doesnot reflect

I am following React & Redux. I have actions, reducers working separately. I am managing state more or less properly.
I am trying to create a ui which is having few textboxes and a button(disabled). In text boxes i had added onchange event on which it call a function
onChangeTextbox(){
}
In this function I do the following thing.
1. I update the state of the redux store.
onChangeTextbox(){
updateStateOfTextBox();
}
2.After doing this I look for whether all the text boxes, in the ui, is having something in it. If so I will enable my button to do further operations.
onChangeTextbox(){
updateStateOfTextBox();
updateStateOfButton();
}
Everything is working good except the one thing.
That one thing is as soon as I give the last empty textbox one character, the button is not enabled immediately, and when I give more character the button gets enabled. Similarly vice versa for disabling button.
The problem which I found is that when control complete its job of function updateStateOfTextBox(); and enters the updateStateOfButton(); function the state remains same. And again when render() occurs the change in state is reflected then.
I want to fix that issue and I am not getting any way out. Any solution and suggestion to this will be appreciated.
Thanks.
I found the solution to such situation.
componentsWillRecieveProps(newProps){
}
this method of the life cycle changes the game.
componentsWillRecieveProps(newProps){
newProps.state // this will give you new updated state which your action updated.
this.props.state // this will give you local or your state
// Here you can update your local state with global state
// And call the other function here as
updateStateOfButton();
}
Therefore the solution can be interpreted like
onChangeTextbox(){
updateStateOfTextBox();
}
componentsWillRecieveProps(newProps){
.
.
updateStateOfButton();
}
