setting<T> method

@protected Setting<T> setting<T>({ required String key, required Decoder<T> decode, required Encoder<T> encode, })

Creates a new Setting.

A single setting that exposes a type T to the consuming application.

The _key is a function that returns the key for the setting. The _decode function is used to convert the raw value from the underlying storage to the type T. The _encode function is used to convert the value of type T to a raw value that can be stored in the underlying storage.

Implementation

@protected
Setting<T> setting<T>({
  required String key,
  required Decoder<T> decode,
  required Encoder<T> encode,
}) {
  final s = Setting<T>(
    settings: this,
    key: key,
    decode: decode,
    encode: encode,
  );
  // Create a new `Map`, otherwise cache listeners won't be updated
  _cache.value = Map.from(_cache.value..[key] = s);
  return s;
}
