handy 1.1.4

A collection of handy utilities that I found useful while writing my own programs.

This package is a collection of otherwise unrelated utilities that proved to be helpful to while creating Dart programs and Flutter apps.

Features

Among the utilities implemented as of now, here are some of the notable ones:

• Added string utility methods like [toTitleCase] and [capitalize].
• A cleaner class that performs cleanup on objects that need it.
• Get the name of the enum without the preceding enum type name.
• A range class the encapsulates minimum and maximum values.
• Generate inclusive random numbers between any range.
• <, <=, >, >= operators on the DateTime class.
• A Cache class that caches outputs for inputs.
• Truncate values from a DateTime instance.

Usage

Here's some example usage of this package.

import 'package:handy/handy.dart';

enum Heat {
  cold(Range(0, 36.66)),
  lukewarm(Range(36.67, 37.78)),
  hot(Range(37.79, 50));

  const Heat(this.celsiusRange);

  final Range<double> celsiusRange;
}

void main() {
  final title = "comments on bathwater heat".toTitleCase();
  print(title); // Comments On Bathwater Heat

  for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
    final waterHeat = Range<double>(0, 50).randomDouble();

    print("The water is $waterHeat degrees celsius.");

    const cold = Heat.cold;

    if (cold.celsiusRange(waterHeat)) {
      print(cold.toShortString()); // cold
    }

    const lukewarm = Heat.lukewarm;

    if (lukewarm.celsiusRange(waterHeat)) {
      print("${lukewarm.toShortString()}...".capitalize()); // Lukewarm...
    }

    const hot = Heat.hot;

    if (hot.celsiusRange(waterHeat)) {
      print("${hot.toShortString()}! " * 3); // hot! hot! hot!
    }
  }
}
