is it possible to return an exception message back to the user? If Yes, how may i achieve it? I want to let the user know the exception message returned whenever occured. Plus, i don’t want my app to crash at the time when the exception occurs.
To be more specific, i want to return the error message back to the user while the user is trying to login. I have used Firebase as my auth provider.
I have inlcuded my code below for a better understanding.
Thank you in advance.
Future<User?> signInWithEmailAndPassword(
String email,
String password,
) async {
try {
final credential = await _firebaseAuth.signInWithEmailAndPassword(
email: email, password: password);
return _userFromFirebase(credential.user);
throw Exception('Some Error occured. ');
} on auth.FirebaseAuthException catch (e, _) {
print(e);
} catch (e) {
print(e);
}
}
>Solution :
You can show an error message using ScaffoldMessenger to the user
Future<User?> signInWithEmailAndPassword(
BuildContext context,
String email,
String password,
) async {
try {
final credential = await _firebaseAuth.signInWithEmailAndPassword(
email: email, password: password);
return _userFromFirebase(credential.user);
throw Exception('Some Error occured. ');
} on auth.FirebaseAuthException catch (e, _) {
ScaffoldMessenger.of(context).showSnackBar(SnackBar(
content: Text(e.toString()),
));
} catch (e) {
ScaffoldMessenger.of(context).showSnackBar(SnackBar(
content: Text(e.toString()),
));
}
}
