Not able to build custom widget in flutter

Solution 1
There is way too much going on. Please strip your example. I am unable to copy and execute the code because dependencies are missing (like the User class).
The code is very messy, you're mixing view logic, application logic, models, and view models everywhere which makes it hard to grasp, where and why the exception arises. Also, you work with Maps because the Firestore returns these kinds of data types. Instead you should convert the dynamic Maps to your own (view)model classes. This way, the compiler could give a much better explanation about what's wrong.
It has probably something to do with the properties you have declared as dynamic ("likes" and "contributers"). Have you tried to debug whether they are really Maps and not Lists? Because in the Post constructor you declare them as dynamic whereas in the PostState you expect Maps.
Can you at least narrow the issue down to a Widget? Does the problem persist when you don't render the header and footer?
Solution 2
profile.dart
getProfilePosts() async {
setState(() {
isLoading=true;
});
QuerySnapshot snapshot= await userPostRef
.document(widget.profileId)
.collection('userPosts')
.getDocuments();
setState(() {
isLoading=false;
postCount=snapshot.documents.length;
posts=snapshot.documents.map((doc){
Post.fromDocument(doc)
}).toList();
});
}
In post.dart change factory method to this
factory Post.fromDocument(DocumentSnapshot document) {
Map<String, dynamic> doc = document.data()! as Map<String, dynamic>;
return Post(
postId: doc['postId'],
userId: doc['userId'],
bucketId: doc['bucketId'],
username: doc['username'],
post: doc['post'],
contributers: doc['contributers'],
likes: doc['likes'],
photoUrl: doc['photoUrl'],
);
}
Try this

I am trying to render posts of a created user on profile page. The posts are stored in firestore. Having made a post widget in post.dart along with the post model. The post widget is not building.
The profile.dart has the following code for generating posts.
class Profile extends StatefulWidget { final String profileId; Profile({this.profileId}); @override _ProfileState createState() => _ProfileState(); } class _ProfileState extends State<Profile> { bool isLoading = false; int postCount = 0; List<Post> posts = []; final String currentUserId = currentUser?.id; @override void initState() { super.initState(); getProfilePosts(); } getProfilePosts() async { setState(() { isLoading=true; }); QuerySnapshot snapshot= await userPostRef .document(widget.profileId) .collection('userPosts') .getDocuments(); setState(() { isLoading=false; postCount=snapshot.documents.length; posts=snapshot.documents.map((doc) =>Post.fromDocument(doc)).toList(); }); } buildProfilePosts(){ if(isLoading){ return circularProgress(); } return Column(children:posts); } @override Widget build(context) { return Scaffold( appBar: header(context, titleText: "Profile"), body: ListView(children: <Widget>[ buildProfileHeader(), Divider( height: 0.0, ), buildProfilePosts(), ]), ); } }Below is the post.dart file having post model and post widget
class Post extends StatefulWidget { final String bucketId; final String postId; final String userId; final String username; final String post; final dynamic likes; final dynamic contributers; final String photoUrl; Post({ this.bucketId, this.postId, this.userId, this.username, this.post, this.likes, this.contributers, this.photoUrl, }); factory Post.fromDocument(DocumentSnapshot doc) { return Post( postId: doc['postId'], userId: doc['userId'], bucketId: doc['bucketId'], username: doc['username'], post: doc['post'], contributers: doc['contributers'], likes: doc['likes'], photoUrl: doc['photoUrl'], ); } @override _PostState createState() => _PostState( postId: this.postId, bucketId: this.bucketId, userId: this.userId, username: this.username, post: this.post, likes: this.likes, contributers: this.contributers, likeCount: getLikeCount(this.likes), photoUrl: this.photoUrl, ); } class _PostState extends State<Post> { final String currentUserId=currentUser?.id; final String bucketId; final String postId; final String userId; final String username; final String post; final String photoUrl; Map likes; Map contributers; int likeCount; _PostState({ this.bucketId, this.postId, this.userId, this.username, this.post, this.likes, this.contributers, this.likeCount, this.photoUrl, }); buildPostHeader(){ return FutureBuilder( future: usersRef.document(userId).get(), builder: (context,snapshot){ if(!snapshot.hasData){ return circularProgress(); } User user=User.fromDocument(snapshot.data); bool isPostOwner = currentUserId==userId; return ListTile( leading: CircleAvatar( backgroundImage: CachedNetworkImageProvider(user.photoUrl), backgroundColor: Colors.grey, ), title: GestureDetector( onTap: ()=> print('showing profile'), child: Text( user.displayName, style: TextStyle( color: Colors.black, fontWeight: FontWeight.bold ), ), ), subtitle: Text( "@"+user.username, style: TextStyle( color: Colors.grey, fontWeight: FontWeight.normal ), ), trailing: isPostOwner ? IconButton( onPressed: ()=>handleDeletePost(context), icon: Icon(Icons.more_vert), ):Text(''), ); } ); } buildPostBody(){ return GestureDetector( onTap: ()=>print('go to bucket'), child: Stack( alignment: Alignment.center, children: <Widget>[ Card( child: Text( post, ), ), ], ), ); } buildPostFooter(){ return Row( mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceBetween, children: <Widget>[ Padding(padding: EdgeInsets.only(top: 40.0, left: 20.0)), Row( children: <Widget>[ GestureDetector ( onTap: () => print('liking post'), child: Icon( Icons.favorite_border, size: 28.0, color: Colors.pink, ), ), Text( likeCount.toString(), ), ], ), Padding(padding: EdgeInsets.only(right: 20.0)), GestureDetector( onTap: () => print('showing comments'), child: Icon( Icons.chat, size: 28.0, color: Colors.blue[900], ), ), ], ); } @override Widget build(BuildContext context) { print("Building widget"); return Column( mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min, children: <Widget>[ buildPostHeader(), buildPostBody(), buildPostFooter(), ], ); } }The debug console shows the following error

Ayush Saxena over 2 yearsDo you mean doc.data by value.data()?
-
Ayush Saxena over 2 yearsAlso Post.fromDocument is expecting a DocumentSnapshot as argument

Maddu Swaroop over 2 yearsYeah, that's doc Sorry my bad. Ok, I'll check and update the answer.
