prefer_null_aware_method_calls
Prefer null
-aware method calls.
Details
#Instead of checking nullability of a function/method f
before calling it, you can use f?.call()
.
BAD:
dart
if (f != null) f!();
GOOD:
dart
f?.call();
Enable
#To enable the prefer_null_aware_method_calls
rule, add prefer_null_aware_method_calls
under linter > rules in your analysis_options.yaml
file:
analysis_options.yaml
yaml
linter:
rules:
- prefer_null_aware_method_calls
If you're instead using the YAML map syntax to configure linter rules, add prefer_null_aware_method_calls: true
under linter > rules:
analysis_options.yaml
yaml
linter:
rules:
prefer_null_aware_method_calls: true
