Architecting Bloc and StreamControllers to handle events












0















I'm building a Flutter app using BLoCs. I have a view where I send multiple events to the bloc and also streams data to the view.



Currently, I have different sinks I'm adding to depending on what the user is doing e.g. clicking a radio button, clicking a button to increase a counter, all in the same view. I'm searching how to handle these events in a common sink as it seems like a lot of plumbing to have a sink for each part. When I'm changing state I use different streams it's, but it's for the event handling part I'm looking around for a solution.



Any guidance to make the sink handling cleaner or is this the way to do it?



example of the current code I would like to streamline



// distance
StreamController<bool> _cmdDistanceController = StreamController<bool>();
StreamSink get distanceCommands => _cmdDistanceController.sink;

StreamController<String> _syncDistanceController =
StreamController<String>.broadcast();
Stream<String> get syncDistances => _syncDistanceController.stream;

// speed
StreamController<bool> _cmdSpeedController = StreamController<bool>();
StreamSink get speedCommands => _cmdSpeedController.sink;

StreamController<String> _syncSpeedController =
StreamController<String>.broadcast();
Stream<String> get syncSpeed => _syncSpeedController.stream;

  • I've updated with some code. it's the _cmdXXX controllers I would like to merge into a single controller in some smart way. Besides what you see above I have 3 more for other inputs in the same wiew

  • hmmm, i dont quite understand what you mean by "merge" but maybe its StreamGroup you are looking for? the docs say: "A collection of streams whose events are unified and sent through a central stream."

  • Ohhh haven't heard of StreamGroup, but yes central is what I'm looking for. A central sink I can use instead of exposing two. This would require I add something else than bool
