avoid-passing-async-when-sync-expected

added in: 1.0.0 warning

Avoid passing asynchronous function as an argument where a synchronous function is expected.

note

For this rule it's recommended to exclude the test folder.

Example

Bad:

void doSomethingWithCallback(VoidCallback function) {
...
function();
...
}

void main() {
doSomethingWithCallback(() async {
await Future.delayed(Duration(seconds: 1));
print('Hello World');
});
}

Good:

void doSomethingWithCallback(VoidCallback function) {
...
function();
...
}

void main() {
doSomethingWithCallback(() {
print('Hello World');
});
}
