Display icons on a flutter app from cloud firestore - ios

Question

I am currently displaying my icons like this:
Widget _buildPopupDialog(BuildContext context) {
List<IconData> _iconsTable = [
Icons.feedback,
Icons.eco,
Icons.support,
Icons.call,
Icons.nature_people,
Icons.directions_bike,
];
return new AlertDialog(
content: SingleChildScrollView(
child: new Container(
child: GridView.count(
children: new List.generate(6, (int index) {
return new Positioned(
child: new DailyButton(iconData: _iconsTable[index]),
);
}),
),
),
),
However, I am wanting to get the icon data from cloud firestore. I am very new to using both flutter and firebase so I am very unsure how I would be able to do this. So far, I have tried this but iconData: Icons.iconsData obviously doesnt work:
class MyApp3 extends StatelessWidget {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
home: MyHomePage3(),
);
}
}
class MyHomePage3 extends StatefulWidget {
#override
_MyHomePageState3 createState() {
return _MyHomePageState3();
}
}
class _MyHomePageState3 extends State<MyHomePage3> {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
body: _buildBody(context),
);
}
Widget _buildBody(BuildContext context) {
return StreamBuilder<QuerySnapshot>(
stream: FirebaseFirestore.instance.collection('icons').snapshots(),
builder: (context, snapshot) {
if (!snapshot.hasData) return LinearProgressIndicator();
return _buildList(context, snapshot.data.docs);
},
);
}
Widget _buildList(BuildContext context, List<DocumentSnapshot> snapshot) {
return ListView(
children: snapshot.map((data) => _buildListItem(context, data)).toList(),
);
}
Widget _buildListItem(BuildContext context, DocumentSnapshot data) {
final record3 = Record3.fromSnapshot(data);
var _iconsData = record3.name;
return Padding(
key: ValueKey(record3.name),
child: Container(
child: Card(
child: new MoodButton(
onTap: () => print("Mood"),
iconData: Icons.iconsData,
),
// trailing: Text(record3.votes.toString()),
// onTap: () => record3.reference.update({'votes': record3.votes+1})
),
),
);
}
}
class Record3 {
final String name;
final int votes;
final DocumentReference reference;
Record3.fromMap(Map<String, dynamic> map, {this.reference})
: assert(map['name'] != null),
assert(map['votes'] != null),
name = map['name'],
votes = map['votes'];
Record3.fromSnapshot(DocumentSnapshot snapshot)
: this.fromMap(snapshot.data(), reference: snapshot.reference);
#override
String toString() => "Record<$name:$votes>";
}
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

If anyone is interested, I was able to figure it out:
Widget _buildListItem(BuildContext context, DocumentSnapshot data) {
final record3 = Record3.fromSnapshot(data);
int iconCode = record3.votes;
return Padding(
key: ValueKey(record3.name),
child: Container(
child: new Container(
child: new ListView(
scrollDirection: Axis.horizontal,
children: new List.generate(1, (int index) {
return new Positioned(
child: new MoodButton(
onTap: () => print("Mood"),
iconData: (IconData(iconCode, fontFamily: 'MaterialIcons')),
),
);
})),
),
),
);
