河荚 |真正需要多少个 Provider 才能只观察 class 的一个状态

Question

我遵循了 this 优秀 Riverpod 教程。在最后的步骤中，作者使用了以下代码：

final _buttonState = Provider<ButtonState>((ref) {
  return ref.watch(timerProvider.state).buttonState;
});
final buttonProvider = Provider<ButtonState>((ref) {
  return ref.watch(_buttonState);
});

和

final _timeLeftProvider = Provider<String>((ref) {
  return ref.watch(timerProvider.state).timeLeft;
});
final timeLeftProvider = Provider<String>((ref) {
  return ref.watch(_timeLeftProvider);
});

我尝试使用 _buttonState 和 _timeLeftProvider ，据我所知，应用程序运行正常。所以，我的问题是：

创建和使用 buttonProvider 和 timeLeftProvider 有什么必要？
真正需要多少个提供商？

非常感谢！

我的main.dart代码是：

        if (state == ButtonState.finished) ...[
          ResetButton(),
        ],
      ],
    );
  }
}

class StartButton extends StatelessWidget {
  const StartButton({Key key}) : super(key: key);

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    print('building StartButton');
    return FloatingActionButton(
      onPressed: context.read(timerProvider).start,
      child: Icon(Icons.play_arrow),
    );
  }
}

class PauseButton extends StatelessWidget {

我做错了什么？

Answer 1

这些提供程序用于防止不必要的重建，但根本不是必需的。只创建你需要的提供者——特别是因为这些提供者永远不会在应用程序生命周期中被丢弃，它们只是被浪费了 space。但是，防止不必要的重建应该是重中之重。

在链接的文章中，作者正在使用包作者推荐的 workaround 来防止在侦听 StateNotifier 的特定属性时重建。所以，就目前而言，这是完成任务的最有效方法。如果引入新功能来解决它，我将尝试更新此答案。

我会参考 package creator's examples 了解更多上下文。

这是一个简单的例子，说明为什么您可以使用多个提供程序来缓存来自外部 API 的响应：

class ExampleApiRepository {
  ExampleApiRepository(this._read);

  static final provider = Provider((ref) => ExampleApiRepository(ref.read));

  final Reader _read;

  Future<Example> search(String query) async {
    final response = await _call('api/example/$query');
    return Example.fromJson(response.data);
  }
}

final searchExample = FutureProvider.family<Example, String>((ref, query) async {
  return ref.watch(ExampleApiRepository.provider).search(query);
});

在此示例中，如果将相同的查询传递给 searchExample 提供程序，它将 return 之前获取的结果。这可以在没有多个提供者的情况下实现吗？是的 - 在大多数情况下，这都是正确的。创建供应商是为了方便和高效。所以不要害怕使用许多提供程序，但不要为了创建它们而创建它们。

也就是说，您链接的文章内容丰富，值得赞赏。
