hisma_console_monitor 0.2.0+4

Simple state machine monitor implementation that writes to the console for the Hisma package.

Simple monitor implementation for the Hisma package.

Features

Prints out to console (or onto anything else you define. e.g. a logger) the active states of the hierarchical state machines of the program:

Getting started

Create your state machines with hisma.

Usage

You can enable [ConsoleMonitor] by adding a creator function that returns ConsoleMonitor to the list of monitor creators (example code from hisma examples):

Future<void> main() async {
  StateMachine.monitorCreators = [
    (machine) => ConsoleMonitor(machine),
  ];

  await lightMachine.start();
  play();
}

This will result that state machine creation and active state changes will be monitored by ConsoleMonitor, writing out all active states of all hierarchical state machines of the program.

One can easily modify how [ConsoleMonitor] prints out the active states, e.g. you can use your logger instead of printing to consoles. In the following example we add an extra separator line before each output of active states:

Future<void> main() async {
  StateMachine.monitorCreators = [
    (machine) => ConsoleMonitor(
          machine,
          printer: (str) {
            print('-MONITOR----------------------------');
            print(str);
          },
        ),
  ];

  await lightMachine.start();
  play();
}
