nitro_generator 0.2.0

Code generator for Nitro Modules (Nitrogen). Converts *.native.dart specs to Dart FFI, Kotlin, Swift, and C++ bindings.

0.2.0

• New: @HybridRecord Binary Bridge Generator — Generated extensions now use a compact binary protocol (uint8_t* / Pointer<Uint8>) instead of UTF-8 JSON strings, significantly reducing serialization overhead.
  • Breaking: Extension methods renamed to standard codec names: fromJson → fromNative / fromReader, toJson → writeFields / toNative.
  • Full support for @HybridRecord in Kotlin (.bridge.g.kt) via @Keep data class with companion decode/encode methods. Swift support updated for toNative and RecordReader integrations.
• New: Comprehensive Collection Bridging — Added binary-first support for:
  • List<primitive> (int, double, bool, String) via RecordWriter.encodePrimitiveList.
  • Map<String, T> using the UTF-8 JSON path (dynamic values).
  • Nested lists and nullable record fields.
• Improved: Swift Stream Stability — Fixed a compiler error in _register_*_stream by heap-allocating @HybridStruct items before passing them to the C emit callback.
• Improved: Code Quality & Lints — Generated code now follows strict Dart linting rules:
  • Cleaned up unbraced for-loops and unused local variable declarations.
  • Renamed internal variables to follow public naming conventions (e.g., _rawResult → rawResult).
• Testing: Added 28+ regression tests for Kotlin record emission and updated 200+ existing tests to match the binary wire format.

0.1.3

• Swift generator: fixed @_cdecl String type crash (EXC_BAD_ACCESS) — String parameters now use UnsafePointer<CChar>? (C const char*) and return values use UnsafeMutablePointer<CChar>? (malloc'd char*), with String(cString:) conversion at the boundary and strdup() for returns so Dart's toDartStringWithFree() / free() pairs correctly.
• Swift generator: async String-returning methods use DispatchSemaphore + Task.detached with a strdup(result) return.
• Swift generator: String property getters return strdup-allocated C strings; setters accept UnsafePointer<CChar>? and convert with String(cString:).

0.1.2

• Swift generator: replaced @objc public static func _call_* pattern with top-level @_cdecl("_call_*") public func stubs. Swift structs and Swift-only protocols cannot cross the Objective-C boundary.
• Swift generator: bool return type now maps to Int8 (matching C's int8_t) instead of Bool.
• Swift generator: struct-returning functions now return UnsafeMutableRawPointer? (heap-allocated, caller frees) instead of Any?.

0.1.1

• Renamed package from nitrogen to nitro_generator to avoid a naming conflict on pub.dev.

0.1.0

• Initial release of Nitro code generator.
• Generates Dart FFI, Kotlin, Swift, and C++ bindings.
• Support for HybridObject, HybridStruct, and HybridEnum.
• Support for @nitroAsync methods.
• Support for @NitroStream with Backpressure strategies.
