air_framework 1.0.6

A modular, reactive, and scalable framework for Flutter. Build industrial-grade apps with a decoupled architecture.

Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

1.0.6

Enhancements

• Integration: Bumped air_state dependency to ^1.0.6 to include the new AirPulse callable class shorthand — enables AuthPulses.clearMessages(null) syntax.

1.0.5

Enhancements

• Integration: Bumped air_state dependency to ^1.0.5 to include the new AirListener API for decoupled side-effect management.

1.0.4 - 2026-04-10

Bug Fixes

• Fixed AppModule lifecycle state machine: Added @mustCallSuper to onBind() and onInit(). Subclasses that omitted super calls left the module permanently in unloaded state, silently breaking lifecycle tracking.
• Fixed SecureServiceRegistry._safeNotify() crash in headless environments: The unconditional SchedulerBinding.instance.addPostFrameCallback() call threw in tests and background isolates where no binding is attached. Now falls back to direct notifyListeners() if SchedulerBinding is unavailable.
• Fixed EventBus.dispose() subscription leak in release builds: dispose() previously delegated to clearAll(), which is guarded by kDebugMode and returns early in release — leaving all subscriptions alive. Now cancels subscriptions directly on dispose, bypassing the debug guard.
• Fixed GeneratedInjection.inject<T>() always throwing UnimplementedError: Now delegates to AirDI().get<T>() as intended. This was shipped as public API with no implementation.
• Fixed ModuleIdentityToken.verify() ignoring the issued secret: Added a check that _secret.isNotEmpty alongside the moduleId comparison, ensuring only properly issued tokens pass verification.
• Removed unused archive: ^4.0.7 dependency: The archive package was declared in pubspec.yaml but never imported anywhere in the framework. Removed to reduce bundle size.

1.0.3 - 2026-03-03

✨ Visuals & Documentation

• Brand Identity: Added the official Air Framework SVG logo to the README and Developer Guide.
• Documentation Site: Updated the documentation site hero image and navigation logo for consistency.

1.0.2 - 2026-03-03

🔌 Air Adapters

• AirAdapter Base Class: New abstract class for headless service integrations (HTTP, analytics, error tracking). Follows the same lifecycle as AppModule (onBind → onInit → onDispose) but without routes or UI.
• AdapterManager: Standalone singleton for registering, managing, and unregistering adapters. Handles dependency checks and lifecycle events.
• Contract Pattern: Adapters expose abstract contracts (e.g., HttpClient) so modules never couple to specific libraries. Swap implementations without touching module code.
• DevTools: Added ADAPTERS tab to the DevTools inspector (8 tabs total: GRAPH, MODULES, ADAPTERS, STATE, PULSES, DI, PERF, LOGS).
• Boot Order: Established Adapters → Modules → App initialization order to ensure infrastructure is ready before feature modules.

📦 Example App

• DioAdapter Integration: Added adapters/dio/ to the example app with HttpClient contract, DioHttpClient implementation, and DioAdapter.
• UsersModule: New module demonstrating the adapter pattern — fetches real data from JSONPlaceholder API through the abstract HttpClient (zero knowledge of Dio).
• Shell Navigation: Added Users tab to the bottom navigation bar.

1.0.1 - 2026-02-09

🚀 Improvements & Fixes

• Architecture: Standardized AppModule usage to use extends instead of implements for better inheritance support.
• Security: Enhanced real-time data access validation in coordination with air_state 1.0.2.
• Lifecycle: Improved onDispose to ensure all cross-module subscriptions are properly cleaned up.
• Documentation: Updated examples and comments to reflect the latest generator patterns.

1.0.0 - 2026-02-09

🎉 Initial Release

This is the first stable release of Air Framework, a modular, reactive, and scalable framework for building industrial-grade Flutter applications.

Key Features

• Modular Architecture: True decoupling with AppModule, AirDI, and AirRouter. Build features in isolation and assemble them seamlessly.
• Reactive State Management: Integrated with air_state for high-performance, fine-grained reactivity using code generation (@GenerateState).
• Event Bus System: Powerful inter-module communication with:
  • Typed Events: Strong typing for critical business logic.
  • Named Signals: Flexible, lightweight messaging.
  • Middlewares: Intercept and process events globally.
  • Schema Validation: Ensure data integrity with runtime validation.
• Dependency Injection: Centralized Service Locator (AirDI) with module ownership and lifecycle management.
• Smart Routing: Built on top of go_router with distributed route definitions.
• DevTools: Built-in debugging tools for inspecting modules, state, and events.

🛡️ Security & Enterprise Features

• Permission System: A declarative, Opt-In security layer for controlling access between modules.
  • Grainular permissions: dataRead, dataWrite, serviceCall, eventEmit, eventListen.
  • Tiered Enforcement:
    • Debug: Non-blocking warnings (Yellow) for rapid development.
    • Strict Mode: Hard blocking for production/audit compliance.
• Secure Service Registry: Register services with access control lists (allowedCallers) and audit logging.
• Audit Trail: Comprehensive logging of security violations and cross-module interactions.
• Data Protection: Secure shared data storage with TTL (Time-To-Live).

Developer Experience

• Colored Console Logs: Clear, color-coded output for Info, Debug, Warning, and Error logs.
• Rapid Prototyping: Permissive defaults in Debug mode allow you to build fast and secure later.
• Comprehensive Documentation: Extensive guides and API references included.
