set india as default country flag country_picker flutter?

Question

I am working with a flutter project and there is a dropdown menu that shows all the countries as a default. It shows Afghanistan, but I want to show India as default:

CountryPickerDropdown(
                                            onTap: () =>
                                                FocusScope.of(context)
                                                    .requestFocus(
                                                    FocusNode()),
                                            onValuePicked: (
                                                Country country) {
                                              print("${country.name}");
                                            },
                                            itemBuilder: (Country country) {
                                              return Row(
                                                children: <Widget>[
                                                  CountryPickerUtils
                                                      .getDefaultFlagImage(
                                                      country),
                                                  Expanded(
                                                    child: Text(
                                                      country.isoCode,
                                                    ),
                                                  ),
                                                ],
                                              );
                                            },
                                            itemHeight: null,
                                            isExpanded: true,
                                            icon: SizedBox(),
                                          )

Does anyone know how to do it? Thanks in advance

You will have to pass `countryFilter` argument with India as first item. — Rahul, Dec 27 '21 at 08:05
you can refer [here](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57869593/set-default-value-for-dropdown-button-in-flutter) — gretal, Dec 27 '21 at 08:07
@CodingBee checked the source code. countryFilter won't work. The plugin doesn't provide comparable where you could have set order of countries. — Rahul, Dec 27 '21 at 08:13
@CodingBee you can raise a ticket on plugin github project or fix it yourself and raise a PR. — Rahul, Dec 27 '21 at 08:16

try below code hope its helpful to you. just Set initialValue used country_pickers package here

Your Widget:

CountryPickerDropdown(
    initialValue: 'in',
    itemBuilder: _buildDropdownItem,
    onValuePicked: (Country country) {

        child: Row(
          children: <Widget>[
            CountryPickerUtils.getDefaultFlagImage(country),
            SizedBox(
              width: 8.0,
            ),
