ChangeNotifierProvider Not Being called

My ChangeNotifierProvider is not being called....


  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return ChangeNotifierProvider<MyGlobals>(
        builder: (context) => MyGlobals(),
        child: MaterialApp(
          theme: MyGlobals().GetTheme() == "dark" ? ThemeData(fontFamily: 'ERAS', primaryColor: Colors.black, accentColor: Colors.amberAccent, secondaryHeaderColor: Colors.black54):
          ThemeData(fontFamily: 'ERAS', primaryColor: Colors.white, accentColor: Colors.black, secondaryHeaderColor: Colors.white70),
          home: MyHomePage(),
        ));
  }
}

And this is MyGlobals:

String _theme = "dark";

class MyGlobals with ChangeNotifier {


  getTheme() => _theme;


  void setTheme(String _themecolor) {
    _theme = _themecolor;
    notifyListeners();
  }
}

Im not getting any errors its just not being called. I am calling setTheme from another .dart file and its not being changenotifierprovider is not being called. MyGlobals is a seperate .dart file from the ChangeNotifierProvider code above.

You need a Consumer widget to listen the changes you made in your Model, like this :

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return ChangeNotifierProvider<MyGlobals>(
      builder: (context) => MyGlobals(),
      child: Consumer<MyGlobals>(
        builder: (_, model, __) {
          return MaterialApp(
            theme: model.getTheme() == "dark"
                ? ThemeData(
                    fontFamily: 'ERAS',
                    primaryColor: Colors.black,
                    accentColor: Colors.amberAccent,
                    secondaryHeaderColor: Colors.black54)
                : ThemeData(
                    fontFamily: 'ERAS',
                    primaryColor: Colors.white,
                    accentColor: Colors.black,
                    secondaryHeaderColor: Colors.white70),
            home: MyHomePage(),
          );
        },
      ),
    );
  }

Then you can update your theme in this way:

Provider.of<MyGlobals>(context).setTheme("your_theme")
