DocumentList throwing exception

Hello, I am trying to read docs from locally hosted appwrite. DocumentList throws no error if there is no document, and when i add a doc the following exception throws

TypeScript

#0      new Document.fromMap (package:appwrite/src/models/document.dart:41:42)
#1      new DocumentList.fromMap.<anonymous closure> (package:appwrite/src/models/document_list.dart:20:68)
#2      MappedListIterable.elementAt (dart:_internal/iterable.dart:435:31)
#3      ListIterator.moveNext (dart:_internal/iterable.dart:364:26)
#4      new List.from (dart:core-patch/array_patch.dart:29:17)
#5      new DocumentList.fromMap (package:appwrite/src/models/document_list.dart:20:11)
#6      Databases.listDocuments (package:appwrite/services/databases.dart:33:32)
<asynchronous suspension>
#7      main (package:pharmalytics/main.dart:15:13)
<asynchronous suspension>

TL;DR

Issue: When attempting to read documents from a locally hosted Appwrite, DocumentList throws an exception due to a mismatch in data types for permissions. Solution: Update the code snippet to correctly handle incoming permission data as a List of dynamic types: ``` $permissions: (List.from(map['\$permissions']) ?? <String>[]), ``` GitHub open issue for reference: https://github.com/appwrite/appwrite/issues/9116

TypeScript


final db = client.databases;

final k = await db.listDocuments(databaseId: '6765d0e500231e6fff09', collectionId: '6765d1160000b344e358');

print(k.documents); // throws```

looks like the following from appwrite sdk is the issue

TypeScript

    return Document(
      $id: map['\$id'].toString(),
      $collectionId: map['\$collectionId'].toString(),
      $databaseId: map['\$databaseId'].toString(),
      $createdAt: map['\$createdAt'].toString(),
      $updatedAt: map['\$updatedAt'].toString(),
      $permissions: map['\$permissions'] ?? [],
      data: map,
    );
  }```

something like this fixed the issue because the incoming permision data from the map is actually of List dynamic
```  $permissions: (List.from(map['\$permissions']) ?? <String>[]),```
