Refresh Page with new data from APi by searchHandler Xamarin C#

Question

I have a question about the function search Handler in xamarin. I am just starting to learn xamarin, and I am trying in my project with search handler in xamarin to refresh my page with new data from the API. Currently, I am already lucky to retrieve the data, but when I do this, it creates a new page so to speak, but this is not what I want. He would kind of reload the page with new data. I have also already tried to delete previous page with "Shell.Current.Navigation.PopAsync();" But with no residual result. Anyone knows how I can achieve what I want? In addition, I would also like to remove that blur you get after the search. Thanks in advance!

        private void ToolbarItem_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

        }

    }

    public class CustomSearchHandler : SearchHandler
    {
        // When user press enter and confirm get the icao code and search for the weather
        protected override void OnQueryConfirmed()
        {
            // Get the icao code
            string icao = Query;

            // Call wheather object
            Weather weather = new Weather();

            // Call frontend
            weather.frontend(icao);

        }
    }

}

Answer 1

this is creating a new instance of Weather and calling its frontend method. That won't do anything useful.

Weather weather = new Weather();
weather.frontend(icao);

Instead you need to use the existing instance that is already displayed to the user

there are many ways to do this, but this might be the simplest

// get the current page
var page = App.Current.MainPage;
// cast it to the correct type
var weather = (Weather)page;
// call its frontend method
page.frontend(icao);
