list_ext 1.0.6

Dart extension methods for Iterable and List. You can easily sum, count elements and many more.

list_ext

Dart extension method for Iterable and List.

Usage

To use this plugin, add list_ext as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file.

Than add import 'package:list_ext/list_ext.dart'; to the file for use extension methods.

Example

import 'package:list_ext/list_ext.dart';

void main() {
  final list = [1, 2, 5];
  final sum = list.sum();
  print('Sum: $sum');
  // Output: Sum: 8
}

Methods classifier

Common

• countWhere() - returns count of elements that satisfy the predicate.
• containsAll() - returns true if the collection contains all elements from the given collection.

Equality

• isNullOrEmpty/isNotNullOrEmpty - check for null or empty.
• isUnorderedEquivalent() - check equality of the elements of two iterables without considering order.

Search

• firstWhereOrNull() - return the first found element or null if no element found.

Safe elements access

• firstOrNull - returns the first element or null if collection is empty.
• tryElementAt() - returns the element at the index if exists or orElse if it is out of range.

Transformation

• reduceValue() - reduces values of elements in a collection to a single value by iteratively combining its using the provided function.

Iterables

• chunks() - splits into chunks of the specified size.
• intersperse() - adds an element between elements of the iterable.
• mapIndex() - creates a new iterable by passing each element and index to a callback.

String

• joinOf() - get string value for each element and concatenates it with passed separator.

Map

• toMap() - creates a Map instance from the iterable.

Math

• maxOf() - returns max of values by elements.
• minOf() - returns min of values by elements.
• sumOf()/sumOfDouble()/sumOfBigInt - returns sum of values by elements.
• avgOf()/avgOfDouble() - returns the average value of values by elements.

There are specific version of methods for Iterables of num (int and double):

• max() (also for BigInt).
• min() (also for BigInt).
• sum().
• avg().

List specific methods

Common

Get an element

• random - returns a random element from the list.

Modification

Element

• replace() - Remove all element occurrences and replace its with another element.
• replaceWhere() - Replace all elements of list that satisfy given predicate.
• addIfNotNull() - Adds element to the end of this list if this element is not null.

Sorting

• sortBy() - Sorts the list in ascending order of the object's field value.
• sortByDescending() - Sorts the list in descending order of the object's field value.

Transformation

List

• copyWith() - Copy current list with adding element.
• copyWithAll() - Copy current list with adding all elements from another list.
• copyWithReplace() - Copy current list, replacing all element occurrences with another element.
• copyWithReplaceWhere() - Copy current list, replacing elements of list that satisfy given predicate with another element.
• copyWithInsertAll() - Copy current list with adding all elements at the provided position of new list.
