#This is how i try to fetch data. i am trying to fetch data and store that data in a list so that i can render that data according to my design

#But i am unable to fetch image Image is in nested data like this

[
{id: 25, 
name: Bakery, 
slug: bakery, 
parent: 0, 
description: , 
display: products, 
image: {
     id: 83, 
     date_created: 2021-07-16T12:16:24, 
     date_created_gmt: 2021-07-16T12:16:24, 
     date_modified: 2021-07-16T12:16:24, 
     date_modified_gmt: 2021-07-16T12:16:24, 
     src: https://sweet-ardinghelli.3-108-138-206.plesk.page/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Intersection.png, 
     name: Intersection, 
    alt: 
  }
]

#I wanna fetch the src inside Image

Solution

Shouldn't you use the fromJson method that you have declared in the CategoryModel?

*edit

Something like this:

loadedData.add(CategoryModel.fromJson(element));

How to filter data?

     Future<void> fetchCategory(BuildContext context) async{
    const url = "https://sweet-ardinghelli.3-108-138-206.plesk.page/wp-json/wc/v3/products/categories";
    try{
      final response = await http.get(Uri.parse(url));
      final extractedData = json.decode(response.body);
      print(extractedData);
      List<CategoryModel> loadedData = [];
      if(extractedData == null){
        ScaffoldMessenger.of(context).showSnackBar(const SnackBar(
          content: Text("Data is Null failed to fetch data!"),
          duration: Duration(seconds: 3),));
      }
      extractedData.forEach((element){
        // Something like this to filter the elements before adding to list.
        final item = CategoryModel.fromJson(element);
        if(item.on_sale == true){
            loadedData.add(CategoryModel.fromJson(element));
        }

        });
      _cItems = loadedData;
      print(_cItems);
      notifyListeners();
    }catch(e){
      rethrow;
    }
  }

hmm meaning i didnt get what u actually meant to say

[user10456190]

I updated my response. Additionally, you could generate a CategoryModels class which would hold all the CategoryModels and have a fromJson method, so you wouldn't need to use the for-loop.

[Saurav]

but can i ask u one more question like what to do if i wanna filter the data show only specific detail on the screen?

[user10456190]

He already has fromJson and toJson functions in his classes.

[user10456190]

You can access the item details through loadedData-list. loadedData[index].id loadedData[index].name loadedData[index].slug loadedData[index].parent and so on...

[Saurav]

like can i do this or not? extractedPublishedData.forEach((element) { if(element['on_sale'] == true) { loadedPublishedModel.add(ProductModel.fromJson(element)); } });

[Saurav]

or like if (element['meta_data']['value'] == 'New Product') checking nested data like this?

[user10456190]

I would convert the json data to Dart model and then access the data. Using the CategoryModel.fromJson or similar method. I updated the example above.

ok thanks i got it thanks for help
