What's a good recipe for overriding hashcode in Dart?

The quiver package provides helper functions hash2, hash3, etc., which simplify the task of implementing hashCode, with some assurance that it works properly under the Dart VM and when compiled to JavaScript.

import 'package:quiver/core.dart';

class Person {
  String name;
  int age;

  Person(this.name, this.age);

  bool operator ==(o) => o is Person && name == o.name && age == o.age;
  int get hashCode => hash2(name.hashCode, age.hashCode);
}

Also see this post for a slightly lengthier discussion.

The equatable package can help

import 'package:equatable/equatable.dart';

class Person extends Equatable {
  final String name;
  final int age;

  Person(this.name, this.age);

  @override
  List<Object> get props => [name, age];
}

Now Person will use == and hashCode from Equatable, which takes props list that you give

I recomend "equatable" plugin

https://pub.dev/packages/equatable

Example:

Raw mode:

class Person {
  final String name;

  const Person(this.name);

  @override
  bool operator ==(Object other) =>
    identical(this, other) ||
    other is Person &&
    runtimeType == other.runtimeType &&
    name == other.name;

  @override
  int get hashCode => name.hashCode;
}

With equatable :

import 'package:equatable/equatable.dart';

class Person extends Equatable {
  final String name;

  Person(this.name);

  @override
  List<Object> get props => [name];
}
