Save favorite posts in Local with provider in Flutter

Question

I'm currently trying to use Provider to save articles once user tap on bookmark icon, new articles once tapped should show up on favourite page, I don't understand why it doesn't save anything. Below my code used. What do I wrong?

ArticleModel

class ArticleModel with ChangeNotifier{
  int?          id;
  String?       urlImage;
  String?       urlImageSource;
  String?       title;
  final String? description;
  String?       link;
  bool          isFavorite;


  ArticleModel({
             this.id,
    required this.urlImage,
    required this.urlImageSource,
    required this.title,
    required this.description,
    required this.link,
             this.isFavorite = false,
  });

  factory ArticleModel.fromJson(Map<String, dynamic> parsedJson) => ArticleModel(
    id:             parsedJson["id"],
    urlImage:       parsedJson["_embedded"]["wp:featuredmedia"][0]["link"],
    urlImageSource: parsedJson["_embedded"]['wp:featuredmedia'][0]["media_details"]["sizes"]["thumbnail"]["source_url"],
    title:          parsedJson["title"]["rendered"].replaceAll("&#8217;", "'").replaceAll("<p>", "").replaceAll("</p>", ""),
    description:    parsedJson['content']['rendered'],
    link:           parsedJson['link'],
    isFavorite:     parsedJson['isFavorite'],
  );

  Map<String, dynamic> toJson() {
    final Map<String, dynamic> data = <String, dynamic>{};
    data['id']             = id;
    data['urlImage']       = urlImage;
    data['urlImageSource'] = urlImageSource;
    data['title']          = title;
    data['description']    = description;
    data['link']           = link;
    data['isFavorite']     = isFavorite;

    return data;
  }
}

Article page where user can read and tap on bookmark icon to save article

class ArticlePage extends StatefulWidget {
  final id;
  final urlImage;
  final title;
  final description;
  const ArticlePage({Key? key, required this.data, this.id, this.urlImage, this.title, this.description}) : super(key: key);
  final data;

  @override
  _ArticlePageState createState() => _ArticlePageState(data, id, urlImage, title, description);
}

class _ArticlePageState extends State<ArticlePage> {
  final id;
  final urlImage;
  final title;
  final description;
  final data;
  _ArticlePageState(this.data, this.id, this.urlImage, this.title, this.description);
  /// Save article
  /// Last test
  late FavoriteArticles _favoriteArticles;
  late bool _favoriteArticlesReady = false;
  late bool isFavorite = false;
  /// Save articles
  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();
    _favoriteArticles = Provider.of<FavoriteArticles>(context, listen: false,);
    setState(() {
      _favoriteArticlesReady = true;
      isFavorite = _favoriteArticles.isFavorite(widget.id); // initialize isFavorite here
    });
  }

  



  @override
  void didChangeDependencies() {
    super.didChangeDependencies();
    _favoriteArticles = Provider.of<FavoriteArticles>(context, listen: false,);
  }

  /// Add article to favorites
  void addFavorite(ArticleModel id) {
    _favoriteArticles.addFavorite(
      id: widget.id,
      urlImage: widget.urlImage,
      title: widget.title,
    );
  }
  /// Add article from favorites
  void removeFavorite(ArticleModel id) {
    var _favoriteArticleIds;
    Provider.of<FavoriteArticles>(context, listen: false);
    _favoriteArticleIds.remove(
      id: widget.id,
      urlImage: widget.urlImage,
      title: widget.title,
    );
  }

  Future<void> savedArticle() async {
    if (!_favoriteArticlesReady) {
      return;
    }
    final isFavorite = _favoriteArticles.isFavorite(widget.id);

    setState(() {
      _favoriteArticles = Provider.of<FavoriteArticles>(context, listen: false,);
      if (!isFavorite) {
        _favoriteArticles.removeFavorite(widget.id);
      } else {
        _favoriteArticles.addFavorite(
          id: widget.id,
          urlImage: widget.urlImage,
          title: widget.title,
        );
        print("Saved article "
            "${data["_embedded"]["wp:featuredmedia"][0]["link"]}   " // Image
            "Article link "
            "${data["link"]}" // Link
            "${data["title"]["rendered"].toString().replaceAll("<p>", "").replaceAll("&#8217;", "'").replaceAll("</p>", "")}", // Title
        );

    });

                              ArticlePage(
                                  data: articleData
                                  //data: snapshot.data?[index]
                              ),
                        ),
                      );
                    },
                  ),
                );
              },
            );
          }
          return const EmptyArticle();
        },
      ),
    );
  }
}

Provider in my MyApp page

providers: [
          ChangeNotifierProvider<FavoriteArticles>(
            create: (context) => FavoriteArticles(),
          ),
        ],

You are calling notifyListeners() before saving entities. So, try to use this approach:

await saveToSharedPreferences();
notifyListeners();

Don't call any updates before you don't save your data. In some cases you need more time and entities can save after UI refresh.
