Byte flow is a pure dart , dependency less library that provides common utility functions for lists and strings .
Contents #
Install #
dependencies:
byte_flow: ^1.0.0
After this run flutter pub get
Then import the library
import 'package:byte_flow/byte_flow.dart';
Functions #
Byte flow contains helpful utility functions for lists and strings but it's main target is to provide developers rich set of list utilites .
Array #
First import the library like this
import 'package:byte_flow/byte_flow.dart' as _;
_.chunk(List list, [int size = 1])
#
Creates an list of elements split into groups the length of size
. If list
can't be split evenly, the final chunk will be the remaining elements.
Example
_.chunk(['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'], 2);
// Returns ['a', 'b'],['c', 'd']
_.chunk(['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'], 3)
// Returns ['a', 'b', 'c'],['d']
_.slice(List list, [int start = 0, int end])
#
Creates a slice of list
from start
up to, but not including, end
.
Example
_.slice([1, 2, 3, 4], 2);
// Returns [3, 4]
_.compact(List list)
#
Creates an list with all falsey values removed. The values false
, null
,0
, ""
, and NaN
are falsey.
Example
_.compact([0, 1, false, 2, '', 3]);
// Returns [1, 2, 3]
_.compact([1, 2, 'some data', 2, '', 3, false, null]);
// Returns [1, 2, 'some data', 2, 3]
_.drop(List list, [int n = 1])
#
Creates a slice of list
with n
elements dropped from the beginning.
Example
_.drop([1, 2, 3]);
// Returns [2,3]
_.drop([1, 2, 3], 2);
// Returns [3]
_.drop([1, 2, 3], 5);
// Returns []
_.drop([1, 2, 3], 0);
// Returns [1, 2, 3]
_.dropRight(List list, [int n = 1])
#
Creates a slice of list
with n
elements dropRightped from the beginning.
Example
_.dropRight([1, 2, 3])
// Returns [1,2]
_.dropRight([1, 2, 3], 2)
// Returns [1]
_.dropRight([1, 2, 3], 5)
// Returns []
_.dropRight([1, 2, 3], 0)
// Returns [1, 2, 3]
_.fill(List list, dynamic value, [int start = 0, int end])
#
Fills elements of list
with value
from start
up to, but not including, end
.
Example
_.fill(List(3), 4);
// Returns [4, 4, 4]
_.findIndex(List list, dynamic element)
#
This method uses dart's default List.indexOf()
Example
_.findIndex(["Jack", "Yash", "Adib", "Alex"], "Adib");
// Returns 2
_.findLastIndex(List list, dynamic element)
#
This method finds the item in the list from right / last using dart's List.indexOf()
method
Example
_.findLastIndex(["Jack", "Yash", "Adib", "Adib"], "Adib");
// Returns 0
_.head(List list)
#
Finds the first element in the list Uses dart's List.first
property
Example
_.head(["Dart", "Javascript", "Swift"]);
// Returns "Dart"
_.flatten(List list)
#
Flatten a list , Credit goes to Justin Fagnani
Example
_.flatten([
[1, 2, 3],
['a', 'b', 'c'],
[true, false, true]
]);
// Returns [1, 2, 3, 'a', 'b', 'c', true, false, true]
_.pairs(List pairs)
#
This method returns an map
composed from key-value pairs
.
Example
_.pairs([
['a', 1],
['b', 2]
]);
// Returns {'a': 1, 'b': 2}
`_.initial(List list)``` #
Gets all but the last element of list.
Example
_.initial([1, 2, 3]);
// Returns [1, 2]
_.initial([1, 2, 3, 'a', 'b', 'c']);
// Returns [1, 2, 3, 'a', 'b']
_.map(List list, Function(dynamic element, int index, List list) iteratee)
#
Creates an list of values by running each element of list
thru iteratee
. The iteratee is invoked with three arguments: (value, index, list).
Example
square(n, index, list) {
return n*n;
}
_.map([4, 8], square);
// Returns [16, 64]
_.map([4, 8], (n, index, list) {
return n * 0;
});
// Returns [0, 0]
_.intersect(List<List> arrays)
#

Example
final lists = [
[1, 2, 3],

[2, 8, 9]
];
_.intersect(lists);
// Returns [2]
_.join(List list, [String separator = ','])

Example
_.join(['a', 'b', 'c'], '~');
// Returns 'a~b~c'
_.last(List list)
#

property
Example
_.last(["Dart", "Javascript", "Swift"]);

of list
. If n
is negative, the nth element from the end is returned.
Example
_.nth(['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'], 2);
// Returns 'c'
_.nth(['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'], -1);
// Returns 'd'
_.sortedIndex(List list, dynamic value)
#
Uses a binary search to determine the lowest index at which value should be inserted into list in order to maintain its sort order. Returns the index at which value should be inserted into list.
Example
_.sortedIndex([30, 50], 60);
// Returns 2
_.sortedIndex([30, 50], 40);
// Returns 1
_.sortedIndex([30, 50], 30);
// Returns 0
_.tail(List list)
#
Gets all but the first element of list.
Example
_.tail([1, 2, 3]);
// Returns [2, 3]
_.take(List list, [int n = 1])
#
Creates a slice of list with n elements taken from the beginning. Uses dart's native List.take(n)
method
Example
_.take([1, 2, 3], 2);
// Returns [1, 2]
_.takeRight(List list, [int n = 1])
#
Creates a slice of list with n elements taken from the end.
Example
takeRight([1, 2, 3])
// => [3]
takeRight([1, 2, 3], 2)
// => [2, 3]
takeRight([1, 2, 3], 5)
// => [1, 2, 3]
takeRight([1, 2, 3], 0)
// => []
_.union(List<List> arrays)
#
Creates an list of unique values, in order
Example
_.union([
[2],
[1, 2]
]);
// Returns [2, 1]
_.unzip(List list)
#
This method Returns the new list of regrouped elements
Example
_.unzip([['a', 1, true], ['b', 2, false]]);
// Returns [['a', 'b'], [1, 2], [true, false]]
_.zip(List a, List b)
#
Zips two arrays , Credit
Example
_.zip(['a', 'b', 'c'], [1, 2, 3]);
// Returns [['a', 1],['b', 2],['c', 3]]
_.duplicate(List list)
#
Find duplicate items in an list .
Example
_.duplicate([10, 12, 9, 21, 1, 2, 10]);

String #
Byte flow libraries string utility collection is poor but still under development . The following functions are stable
_.capitalize(String text)
#
Capitalizes the given string
Example
_.capitalize("hello world !");
