flutter_compress 1.5.1

Native video & image compression for Android, iOS & Web — no FFmpeg. Target-size/bitrate/quality control, HEVC with H.264 fallback, live progress and cancellation.

Changelog

1.5.1

• Add llm-guide.md — an integration guide for AI coding assistants (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot).
• iOS: clearer internal names. No API or behaviour change.

1.5.0

• iOS: fix a compile error that broke every 1.4.0 iOS build (CompressionEngine was missing cancelAll). Reported by @waitwalker.
• Add keepAliveInBackground — set false to skip Android's foreground service and its notification.
• iOS: fix a retain cycle that leaked the engine; a cancel arriving before the job starts is no longer dropped.
• Web: cancel() with no id now works; releaseOutput no longer revokes your own input URL.
• Android: a missing FOREGROUND_SERVICE permission no longer crashes the encode.

1.4.0

• iOS: reply to channel calls on the platform thread, and stop an in-flight export when the engine detaches.
• iOS: the privacy manifest is now actually packaged (podspec + SPM) — App Store requires it from third-party SDKs.
• Android: ship consumer-rules.pro so apps with R8 enabled don't have to guess.
• Add CompressErrorCode — the code values are now named constants, mirrored on all three platforms. Values are unchanged.

1.3.0

• Fix: Android truncated every video to 30 seconds.
• Android: alignment no longer upscales (1080 → 1088); target-size mode pins CBR.
• iOS: more accurate target size.

1.2.0

• Fix: cancelling a video on Android left the compress() future pending forever.
• Android: no longer blocks the UI thread; EXIF orientation applied; bitmaps recycled.
• iOS: failed encodes now error instead of writing a 0-byte file; maxWidth/maxHeight respected per axis.
• Web: codecs and output blobs are released; images no longer download as .mp4.
• Typed errors: CompressException, ImageCompressException, CompressCancelled.
• Batch: compressImages gained progress/cancellation; both gained continueOnError.
• Add releaseOutput(path), cancelAll(), CancellationToken.reset().
• Target-size search is far cheaper — one encode when the image already fits.

1.1.1

• Add outputName (video & image); output name defaults to <source>_<timestamp>.
• Image format now keeps the source format by default; set it only to convert.
• Add image lossless and keepOriginalIfLarger (never makes a file bigger).
• Add video container (auto keeps the source where possible, else mp4).

1.1.0

• Add image compression — a separate API (compressImage, ImageCompressConfig).
• JPEG / PNG / WebP / HEIC, by target size or quality; engines: Bitmap / ImageIO / Canvas.

1.0.1

• Docs and pub.dev metadata polish. No API changes.

1.0.0

Initial release — native, FFmpeg-free video compression for Android, iOS & Web.

• Target size / bitrate / quality %; HEVC with H.264 fallback.
• Resolution & frame-rate caps, audio removal, trim, thumbnails, estimate.
• Progress, cancellation, batch, saveToDownloads.
