Null check operator used on a null value

[ghost]

I get this error sometimes

Null check operator used on a null value
The relevant error-causing widget was

Swiper
lib/views/cards_view.dart:36
When the exception was thrown, this was the stack
#0      _StackViewState._updateValues
package:flutter_card_swipper/src/swiper.dart:864

#1      _StackViewState.didUpdateWidget
package:flutter_card_swipper/src/swiper.dart:874
#2      StatefulElement.update
package:flutter/…/widgets/framework.dart:4682
#3      Element.updateChild
package:flutter/…/widgets/framework.dart:3293
#4      ComponentElement.performRebuild
package:flutter/…/widgets/framework.dart:4520

This is the offending function, I suppose _swiperWidth is null:

void _updateValues() {
  if (widget.scrollDirection == Axis.horizontal) {
    final double space = (_swiperWidth! - widget.itemWidth!) / 2;
    offsets = [-space, -space / 3 * 2, -space / 3, 0.0, _swiperWidth];
  } else {
    final double space = (_swiperHeight! - widget.itemHeight!) / 2;
    offsets = [-space, -space / 3 * 2, -space / 3, 0.0, _swiperHeight];
  }
}

flutter doctor -v

I have the same issue. So I changed it to the package below.

flutter_swiper:
  git:
    url: [email protected]:Arkangel12/flutter_swiper.git
    ref: master

best-flutter/flutter_swiper#264

Well, i have this one too:

It is not logical to have and assertion if we are working with null safety, I think.

I'm sorry guys I've been too busy in my work I haven't been able to evolve this package, for now I see it difficult, can you send me a pull request, I'll be happy to review it.
Best regards
