How I can categorise list based on Month
let say I have example list like below :
Record(
id: '01',
nameFood: 'ravioli',
date : 2021/may/14,
price: 20
),
Record(
id: '02',
nameFood: 'cheese garlic',
date : 2021/june/02,
price: 30,
),
Record(
id: '03',
nameFood: 'steak',
date : 2021/march/21
price 25,
),
I want to Categorize it to like this
June(
nameFood: steak,
total price: 240,
),
and etc
the problem is I dnt know how to filter each List(month) because each month have different length of days like 30,31 and 28

If you store your dates as a DateTime, you can try using the month number. I'm going on a limb here, assuming you have a List of objects of type Record, where Record is.
class Record {
Record(
this.id,
this.price,
this.date,
this.nameFood,
);
final String id;
final double price;
final DateTime date;
final String nameFood;
}
You can loop through your list and do whatever it is you want to do with it, like so.
for (final record in _listOfRecords) {
final _monthOfRecord = record.date.month; // Gives the month number. January = 1, April = 4, etc.
// Do other stuff, based on the current monthNumber
switch (_monthOfRecord) {
case 1:
// Do something
break;
....
default:
break;
}
}
