ac_ranges 3.0.14

Date / Int / Double ranges

ac_ranges

A Dart library for creating, manipulating, and parsing ranges of various comparable types, including DateTime, int, and double. Supports operations like checking for containment, overlaps, and unions.

Features

• Create ranges for DateTime, int, and double.
• Parse string representations of ranges (e.g., "[2019-01-01,2019-02-10)").
• Check if a value is contained within a range.
• Determine if two ranges overlap.
• Calculate the union or intersection of ranges (where applicable).
• Support for inclusive/exclusive bounds.
• Extensible for custom comparable types.

Getting started

To use this package, add ac_ranges as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file.

Then, run dart pub get or flutter pub get.

Usage

The ranges use Postgres-like syntax for bounds, [start, end] for range including both bounding values, (start, end) for range excluding both bounding values, or combination of these (start, end], [start, end).

Range can be created by constructor, e.g. IntRange(1, 10) which creates same range as IntRange.parse('[1,10]'). By default, both values are inclusive. Optionally the inclusion can be specified
IntRange(1, 10, endInclusive: false), which creates same range as IntRange.parse('[1,10)']).

Ranges can be finite (start, end) or infinite (-infinity, end), (start, infinity), (-infinity, infinity)

Discrete finite ranges (of int and date) can be iterated over.

A simple usage example: (see example/ranges_example.dart for more)

Here's a simple example of parsing a date range and printing it:

import 'package:ac_ranges/ac_ranges.dart';

main() {
  String a = "[2019-01-01,2019-02-10)";
  final DateRange? drp = DateRange.parse(a);
  String b = drp.toString();
  print("string $a => DateRange.toString() => $b");
}
