Essentially

The docs for
RefreshIndicator
suggest you can programmatically trigger the refresh behaviour via theRefreshIndicatorState
class.How do I access an instance of this class, assuming I've added a
RefreshIndicator
widget to my application? I can't see a property to access it and I'm assumingcreateState()
is only used by the Flutter framework.To avoid an XY problem, I should explain my reason for doing this is to perform a visually pleasing refresh of my list when my user first opens the app. The list will be empty initially and the refresh will poll my server for data.
