warning

Pro+

Warns when a ConsumerWidget has an unused ref and can be converted to a regular widget.

Example

❌ Bad:

// LINT
class HomeConsumerWidget extends ConsumerWidget {
  const HomeConsumerWidget({super.key});

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context, WidgetRef ref) {
    return Text('$counter');
  }
}

// LINT
class AnotherHomeConsumerWidget extends ConsumerWidget {
  const AnotherHomeConsumerWidget();

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context, WidgetRef ref) {
    return Consumer(
      builder: (context, ref, child) {
        final value = ref.watch(helloWorldProvider);
        return Text(value);
      },
    );
  }
}

✅ Good:

class HomeConsumerWidget extends ConsumerWidget {
  const HomeConsumerWidget();

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context, WidgetRef ref) {
    final counter = ref.watch(counterProvider);

    return Text('$counter');
  }
}
