Getx Flutter - Updating item in list is not reactive

Question

I am using getx as my statemanagment for my flutter app. But I am having difficulties by updating the values in a list. So I have a usermodel with a parameter of isFollowing. When I click on a button the isFollowing variable shall change and the color should be updated. But it is not happening. I am using Obx as my widget, as I already injected the state at the beginning. It is all working fine with fetching the data and displaying it on the frontend. But when I wanna change the values in my list, it is not updating. My minimal reproducible example

HomeController

class HomeController extends GetxController {
  var userslist = List<User>().obs;

  @override
  void onInit() {
    fetchUsers();
    super.onInit();
  }

  void fetchUsers() async {
    var users= await ApiService().getapidata('${usersurl}feed');
    if (users!= null) {
      userslist.value= users;
    }
  }
}

Model

class User {
  User({
    this.id,
    this.user_name,
    this.profile_picture,
    this.isFollowing,
  });

  int id;
  String user_name;
  String profile_picture;
  bool isFollowing;


  factory User.fromJson(Map<String, dynamic> json) => User(
        id: json["id"],
        user_name: json["user_name"],
        profile_picture: json["profile_picture"],
        isFollowing: json["is_following"],
      );

View

class HomeScreen extends StatelessWidget {
  final HomeController homeController = Get.put(HomeController());

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: SingleChildScrollView(
        physics: ScrollPhysics(),
        child: Obx(
          () => ListView.builder(
            shrinkWrap: true,
            physics: NeverScrollableScrollPhysics(),
            itemCount: homeController.usersList.length,
            itemBuilder: (context, index) {
              return UserWidget(homeController.usersList[index], index);
            },
          ),
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}

UserWidget

class UserWidget extends StatelessWidget {
  final User user;
  final int index;
  UserWidget (this.user, this.index);
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return InkWell(
        onTap : ()=> user.isFollowing = true // When I click on this the container it  shall be updated to yellow
        child: Obx( () => Container(
        decoration: const BoxDecoration(color: user.isFollowing ? Colors.yellow : Colors.black ), // Here is the update I wanna make
      ))
    );
  }
}

Answer 1

it worked for me. After making changes to your reactive list, add Example:

if (users!= null) {
      userslist.value= users;

      userlist.refresh();
    } 

Answer 2

In your fetchUsers method instead of using

userslist.value= users;

use

userslist.assignAll(users);
