rxdart usage in Flutter not being recognized

Question

I am trying to use rxdart package for the first time in my Flutter app and I have added the package in yaml file, then I saved it and vscode automatically ran flutter packages get on project after that complete I tried to import the package with following line

import 'package:rxdart/rxdart.dart';

but the compiler doesn't recognize rxdart within the packages. which is causing the error in the app.

The following are my dependencies of pubspec.yaml

dependencies:
  flutter:
    sdk: flutter


  cupertino_icons: ^0.1.2

  rxdart: ^0.18.0

dev_dependencies:
  flutter_test:
    sdk: flutter

Update

Here is the repo for the project I am working on: https://www.github.com/touseefbsb/LoginStateful

You have to open the folder login_stateful_bloc and the error is in bloc.dart file where I am trying to import it.

Solution

You have to keep the indents :

  dependencies:
    flutter:
      sdk: flutter
    cupertino_icons: ^0.1.2
    rxdart: ^0.18.0

do you have any error after execute 'flutter packages get' ?

[ibhavikmakwana]

what's the error?

[Muhammad Touseef]

@diegoveloper no I did not get any error after "flutter packages get" I got exit code 0, which I guess means it ran succesfully. error is get is "target of URI doesnt exist 'package:rxdart/rxdart.dart'".

I cloned your repo and imported 'package:rxdart/rxdart.dart' and it is working fine. What is the version of flutter/dart ?

[Muhammad Touseef]

0.5.1 flutter and 2.0 dart

[Rémi Rousselet]

a few seconds more and I would have said the same. :p

[diegoveloper]

haha but it's weird because if you don't you use indents you get an error on the console

[Muhammad Touseef]

sorry the indents in my questions were misleading I have corrected them now. indents are alright in my file and that is why flutter packages get is running fine.

[diegoveloper]

maybe you could attach a screenshot with the error message and the class where you are using it

[Muhammad Touseef]

please see the update part of the question. @diegoveloper

[diegoveloper]

you are using an old version : rxdart: ^0.16.7

[Muhammad Touseef]

also tried the latest version 0.18.1 still got the same error

[diegoveloper]

could you add a screenshot , put the mouse over the error line and take screenshot?

[Muhammad Touseef]

guyx thanks for all the help but I just restarted the IDE and that solved the problem for me strangely. and I accepted the answer because indentation can also cause this problem so it may help somebody else as well :)
