flutter_zenith 0.10.0

A high-performance, container-scoped state management and dependency injection engine for Flutter. Zero-dependency, surgical rendering, async lifecycle guards, and type-safe DI — all in one package.

0.10.0

• Controller Base Class (ZenithController): Added a scoped base class for business logic with lifecycle hooks, mounted-safe node writes, async task handling, and stream subscriptions that clean up with its ZenithRef.
• Stateful Widget Integration: Added ZenithStatefulWidget, ZenithState, and ZenithStateMixin for reactive stateful widgets and lifecycle-safe, side-effect-only node listeners.
• Inline Reactive Builder (ZenithConsumer): Added a lightweight builder widget for reactive reads without creating a dedicated widget subclass.
• Typed Key Families (ZenithFamily): Added reusable typed key factories for argument-specific container dependencies.
• Watch and Select Aliases: Added BuildContext.watch and BuildContext.select as concise aliases for the existing node helpers.
• Ref Disposal: Container resets and disposal now clean up every active ZenithRef, including explicitly created refs.

0.9.0

• ZenithConsumerWidget: Ergonomic base widget providing build(BuildContext context, ZenithRef ref) for declarative, reactive consumption of Zenith nodes and container services without requiring nested ZenithBuilder widgets.
• Side-Effect Listener (ZenithListener): Dedicated widget for listening to state changes on a ZenithNode<T> and executing callbacks (e.g. navigation, notifications, snackbars, analytics) without causing widget rebuilds.
• Ergonomic Ref/Context Extensions (watchNode, selectNode): Added high-level extension methods on ZenithRef and BuildContext to watch nodes or project derived state selections with automatic lifecycle subscription cleanup.
• AsyncValue.hasValue: Added convenient boolean getter hasValue on AsyncValue<T> to quickly check if a value is present (both in data and previous loading/error states).
• Cyclic Dependency Detection: Added graph cycle detection in ComputedNode to safeguard against recursion loops during derived computation evaluations.

0.8.0

• In-Memory Mediator (ZenithMediator): MediatR equivalent supporting 1-to-1 Commands (ZenithCommand<R>), 1-to-Many Domain Events (ZenithEvent), and cross-cutting ZenithPipelineBehavior wrappers with re-entrancy depth safeguards and error isolation.
• Resilience & Fault Handling (ZenithResilience): Polly equivalent featuring ZenithResiliencePipeline with Exponential Backoff Retry (with randomized jitter to prevent thundering herd spikes), CircuitBreaker (closed, open, halfOpen), and sliding window RateLimiter.
• Strongly-Typed Validation Engine (ZenithValidator): FluentValidation equivalent with fluent rule builders (notEmpty, email, minLength, greaterThan, must), ReDoS safety, and ZenithValidatedNode<T> for auto-validating state nodes.
• Structured Logger & Extensible Sinks (ZenithLogger): Serilog equivalent supporting message template interpolation, automatic PII Redaction (password, token, secret, credit_card), ConsoleSink, and fixed-capacity MemoryRingBufferSink for zero OOM memory growth.

0.7.0

• Feature Management & Feature Flags: Introduced ZenithFeature, FeatureNode, and ZenithFeatureBuilder widget for reactive feature flag rollouts, Remote Config integration, and percentage rollout rule evaluation.
• Options Pattern (ZenithConfigNode<T>): Introduced dynamic configuration nodes (ASP.NET Core IOptionsMonitor<T> equivalent) that decode JSON/Map updates and notify subscribers only on parsed config changes.
• Environment Profiles (ZenithEnvironment): Added ZenithEnvironment (development, staging, production) and environmentOverrides to ZenithContainer for environment-aware DI registration.
• Hosted Background Services (ZenithService): Introduced lifecycle-managed background service contract (onStart, onStop) with concrete implementations ZenithPeriodicService (periodic background task runner) and ZenithIsolateService (background Isolate worker).

0.6.0

• In-Place Scope Reset: Added ZenithContainer.reset() to clear all nodes and references in an existing container without destroying the container instance itself (ideal for multi-user logout).
• Authentication State Union: Introduced AuthState<T> (AuthUnauthenticated, AuthAuthenticating, AuthAuthenticated<T>, AuthError) with exhaustive pattern matching and boolean status getters for router integration.
• State Persistence & Hydration: Introduced ZenithStorage interface, built-in InMemoryStorage, and PersistedNode<T> with static constructors (PersistedNode.string, PersistedNode.integer, PersistedNode.boolean) for auto-restoring and auto-saving node state across app restarts.
• Node Middleware Pipeline: Added ZenithMiddleware<T> interceptors (onWillSet, onDidSet) for value sanitization, validation, transformation, write blocking, and audit logging.

0.5.0

• AsyncValue Equality & Value-Deduplication: Implemented == and hashCode for AsyncData, AsyncLoading, and AsyncError. Setting the same async state twice now skips unnecessary subscriber notifications and widget rebuilds.
• AsyncValue Convenience Helpers: Added maybeWhen, whenOrNull, hasData, requireValue, and human-readable toString() methods.
• Stream Support: Added ZenithStreamX.watchStream(node, stream) and StreamNodeX.watch(ref, stream) for auto-subscribing streams to AsyncValue nodes with automatic lifecycle cancellation on scope disposal.
• Computed / Derived Nodes: Introduced ComputedNode<T> for reactive state derivation. Auto-tracks source node dependencies during evaluation and only re-notifies when the computed result changes.
• Granular Subscriptions (ZenithSelector): Introduced ZenithSelector<T, R> widget for selecting derived sub-properties of a node without triggering rebuilds when unrelated parts of the node change.
• Framework Observer (ZenithObserver): Added ZenithObserver and ZenithLogObserver for debugging node creation, mutation, and container lifecycle events.
• Widget Rebuild Error Handling: Added errorBuilder parameter to ZenithBuilder for graceful error rendering when builder closures throw.
• Documentation & Metadata: Comprehensive Dart doc coverage (///) across all public APIs and updated pubspec.yaml pub.dev metadata.

0.4.0

• Added ConcurrencyStrategy (concurrent, droppable, restartable) and ZenithConcurrencyX.runAsyncGuarded<T>(node, task, {strategy}): a race-condition-safe alternative to ref.runAsync for AsyncValue<T> nodes. droppable ignores new calls while a task is already loading (prevents double-submit on rapid taps); restartable (the default) drops stale results/errors from superseded calls so only the latest invocation can ever update state (fixes stale-response bugs in search-as-you-type / rapid tab switching).
• Added ZenithIsolateX.runInIsolate<T, P>(node, payload, heavyComputation, {strategy}): offloads a heavy synchronous computation to a background Isolate via Isolate.run, then writes the result through runAsyncGuarded, keeping the UI thread free of jank.
• Both extensions are additive -- ZenithRef.runAsync and SafeAsyncNodeX.guard are unchanged.

0.3.0

• Added ZenithRef.set<T>(node, value): a mounted-safe write helper that silently no-ops once the ref's scope has been disposed.
• Added ZenithRef.runAsync<T>(node, task): runs an async task and writes AsyncLoading / AsyncData / AsyncError to an AsyncValue<T> node, automatically guarding every mutation with the ref's mounted state so manual if (!ref.isMounted) return; checks are no longer required.
• Added SafeAsyncNodeX.guard(ref, future) extension on ZenithNode<AsyncValue<T>> as sugar over ref.runAsync(...).
• Breaking: ZenithNode.set() no longer throws StateError when called on a disposed node; it now fails silently (a no-op), matching the semantics of a late/unmounted async write. Reading .value, calling .invalidate(), or .subscribe() on a disposed node still throw StateError as before.

0.2.0

• Added type-safe dependency keys with ZenithKey<T>.
• Added scoped factory overrides via ZenithOverride<T> and ZenithContainer(overrides: [...]).
• Added typed container APIs: getOrCreate<T>(ZenithKey<T>, factory), maybeReadKey<T>(ZenithKey<T>), and invalidateKey<T>(ZenithKey<T>).
• Added BuildContext ergonomics via ZenithContextX: context.container and context.zenith(...).
• Preserved backwards compatibility for existing string-key APIs (getOrCreateNode, maybeNode, invalidate).
• Added tests for key equality, typed node caching, and override behavior.

0.1.0

• Initial release of flutter_zenith.
• ZenithContainer / ZenithRef: container-scoped dependency injection with getOrCreateNode, maybeNode, invalidate, and disposal lifecycle hooks.
• ZenithNode<T>: atomic reactive state nodes with weak-reference subscriber tracking and automatic dead-subscriber pruning.
• ZenithScope / ZenithBuilder: Flutter widget integration for container-scoped state and surgical, dependency-tracked rebuilds.
• AsyncValue<T> (AsyncData, AsyncLoading, AsyncError): pattern-matching async state machine with when, valueOrNull, isLoading, and hasError.
• Comprehensive unit/widget test suite covering lifecycle, memory safety, reactive dependency graph, async/concurrency edge cases, and widget-tree integration.
