parseUser.currentUser() & .getCurrentUserFromServer()

Hello,

I copy/paste the project example, put my applications constants.

I sign up a user and login it. (I have the user in database with the session, it's good)

I restart my application and do my own code :
checkCurrentUser() async { // Best practice for starting the app. This will check for a var user = ParseUser.currentUser(); user = await user.getCurrentUserFromServer(); print("user: $user"); }

But in my terminal, I have this :
I/flutter (13889): I/flutter (13889): ---- I/flutter (13889): Hello Flutter API Response (_User : ParseApiRQ.currentUser) : I/flutter (13889): Status Code: 200 I/flutter (13889): Payload: {objectId: LjTOWTPE8D, createdAt: 2019-01-10T12:51:19.140Z, email: TestFlutterSDK@gmail.com, username: TestFlutter, updatedAt: 2019-01-10T12:51:19.140Z, ACL: {*: {read: true}, LjTOWTPE8D: {read: true, write: true}}, sessionToken: r:5f7045a813f163282ac8a765eabf8cb6, __type: Object, className: _User} I/flutter (13889): ---- I/flutter (13889): user: Username: null I/flutter (13889): Email Address:null

The problem is that it seems that the user is retrieved but when I print my user variable, it's null.

In advance, thank you.

Hey, There's a fix for this in release 1.0.4. That should be released shortly. Still working on a fix for duplicates in 'getAll' api calls. Thanks

Should be fixed now.

why ParseUser.currentUser() return Future?
it make a lot headache!

[fischerscode]

@ZeroNilZero
Almost everything in this SDK returns a future. As futures are a great way of dealing with asynchronous actions and even provide a way for handling errors.

If you have a case where using a future is not possible, you might have a lock at this.
But I would not recommend using it in production, as such a case should be the result of a design flaw.

How can we access and use currentUser in custom ParseObject? and do some action base on it?

[fischerscode]

I assume you have a custom ParseUser class as described here (but with extending ParseUser) class and want to get the current user as an instance of your custom class.

You can use provide a parseUserConstructor (only available in 1.0.27) or you can use ParseUser.currentUser(customUserObject: YourCustomUserClass())

@maaeps
I'm not talking about custom USER class, I want to use current user in another Object Class and do something like this:
ParseObject get O => this.user.objectId == ParseUser.currentUser().objectId ? A : B;
which A and B are Pointer ParseObject.

How can I add this version?

Like this?
Future<ParseObject> get O async => this.user.objectId == (await ParseUser.currentUser()).objectId ? A : B;

To use 1.0.27 in your app (not released yet!)
replace
parse_server_sdk: ^1.0.26
in your pubspec.yaml with

  parse_server_sdk:
    git:
      url: git://github.com/parse-community/Parse-SDK-Flutter.git
      ref: release/1.0.27
