How do I remove a child that's been pressed from ListView - dart

Question

I have a ListView in which I will dynamically add in some children of same type. Inside every children widget has a button. What I want to implement is, that, when user presses the button on a child widget, this child widget will be removed from the ListView. I can do this in C# using events, but I'm a total noob to Dart and Flutter.
Here is my ListView
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
// TODO: implement build
return Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(
title: Text('Edit Plan'),
backgroundColor: Colors.green,
actions: <Widget>[
Builder(
builder: (context) => IconButton(
icon: Icon(Icons.add),
onPressed: () {
setState(() {
txts.add('set');
});
},
),
)
],
),
backgroundColor: Colors.white,
body: ListView(
children: txts.map((string) =>
new ListViewItem()).toList(growable: false),
),
);
}
And here is my listViewItem:
class ListViewItem extends StatelessWidget {
final Workout workout;
ListViewItem({Key key, #required this.workout})
: assert(workout != null),
super(key: key);
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
// TODO: implement build
final theme = Theme.of(context);
return Padding(
padding: EdgeInsets.all(12),
child: Card(
elevation: 12,
color: Colors.green,
child: Padding(
padding: EdgeInsets.only(top: 4, bottom: 4, left: 8, right: 8),
child: Column(
mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min,
children: <Widget>[
const ListTile(
leading: Icon(Icons.album),
title: Text(
'The Enchanted Nightingale',
style: TextStyle(color: Colors.white),
),
subtitle: Text(
'Music by Julie Gable. Lyrics by Sidney Stein.',
style: TextStyle(color: Colors.white),
),
),
TextFormField(
decoration: InputDecoration(
labelText: 'Name your workout',
labelStyle: TextStyle(color: Colors.white)),
),
ButtonTheme.bar(
// make buttons use the appropriate styles for cards
child: ButtonBar(
children: <Widget>[
FlatButton(
child: const Text(
'DELETE',
style: TextStyle(color: Colors.white),
),
onPressed: () {},
),
],
),
),
],
),
)),
);
}
}

I edited your code to use a ListView.builder, you need to remove the item at index from the List (txts) you are using, your code will be as follows:
List<String> txts = List();
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(
title: Text('Edit Plan'),
backgroundColor: Colors.green,
actions: <Widget>[
Builder(
builder: (context) =>
IconButton(
icon: Icon(Icons.add),
onPressed: () {
setState(() {
txts.add('set');
});
},
),
)
],
),
backgroundColor: Colors.white,
body: new ListView.builder(
itemCount: txts.length,
itemBuilder: (BuildContext context, int index) {
return ListViewItem(
workout: workout,
onDelete: (){
setState(() {
txts.removeAt(index);
});
},
);
},
),
);
}
in addition to that you need to add an ondelete callback in the ListViewItem, the code in the ListViewItem class will be as follows:
class ListViewItem extends StatelessWidget {
final Workout workout;
final VoidCallback onDelete;
ListViewItem({Key key, #required this.workout, this.onDelete})
: assert(workout != null),
super(key: key);
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
final theme = Theme.of(context);
return Padding(
padding: EdgeInsets.all(12),
child: Card(
elevation: 12,
color: Colors.green,
child: Padding(
padding: EdgeInsets.only(top: 4, bottom: 4, left: 8, right: 8),
child: Column(
mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min,
children: <Widget>[
const ListTile(
leading: Icon(Icons.album),
title: Text(
'The Enchanted Nightingale',
style: TextStyle(color: Colors.white),
),
subtitle: Text(
'Music by Julie Gable. Lyrics by Sidney Stein.',
style: TextStyle(color: Colors.white),
),
),
TextFormField(
decoration: InputDecoration(
labelText: 'Name your workout',
labelStyle: TextStyle(color: Colors.white)),
),
ButtonTheme.bar(
// make buttons use the appropriate styles for cards
child: ButtonBar(
children: <Widget>[
FlatButton(
child: const Text(
'DELETE',
style: TextStyle(color: Colors.white),
),
onPressed: () =>onDelete(),
),
],
),
),
],
),
)),
);
}
}
