Breaking changes

• Remove ~ shortcut for Option/Result propagation

  • I failed to test the most obvious use-case. Due to the lack of generics on operators, when both variants of Option or Result are returned in the same prefixed function, the return type is inferred by the compiler to be Object and the propagation extensions then fail to recognize the function as a valid target for the ~ operator.

    To compensate, I made the Option/Result propagation helpers easier to type by renaming them, saving 4 characters and 2 syllables. It's the best I can think of until such time that Dart supposed fully generic operator definitions.

• Rename propagateOption() -> catchOption()
• Rename propagateResult() -> catchResult()
• Rename propagateOptionAsync() -> catchOptionAsync()
• Rename propagateResultAsync() -> catchResultAsync()

1.0.0

• Final documentation update for 1.0.0 release 🎉

0.1.0-dev-4

• Update documentation

0.1.0-dev-3

• Allow const Option and Result values
• Rename Option#filter() -> Option#where()
  • This is more Dart-idiomatic

0.1.0-dev-2

• Add Option#iter()
• Add Result#iter()

0.1.0-dev-1

• Add Option#toString()
• Add Result#toString()
• Rework == for Option and Result types.
  • Previously == would check for matching runtime types in addition to held value equality. I was trying to keep things as close to Rust's behavior as I could. It didn't occur to me until after I rewrote it to be more accommodating of dynamic values that it didn't support comparing held values that inherit from eachother that might normally be comparable in both the original implementation and the rewrite so I scrapped both in favor of solely comparing held values.

0.0.1-dev-9

• Add Result#transpose(), ok(), err()

0.0.1-dev-8

• Add Option#unwrapOrElse(), okOr(), okOrElse(), transpose()
• Add Result#unwrapOrElse(), isOkAnd(), isErrAnd(), mapOr(), mapOrElse()

0.0.1-dev-7

• Add Option#inspect(), xor(), isSomeAnd(), mapOr(), mapOrElse()
• Add Result#inspect(), inspectErr()

0.0.1-dev-6

  • See documentation for more information

0.0.1-dev-5
