Debounce and throttle utilities with Stream transformers and cancellation

Requirements

• Dart >= 3.6

Installation

Add to your pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  philiprehberger_debounce: ^0.4.0

Then run:

dart pub get

Usage

import 'package:philiprehberger_debounce/debounce.dart';

final debouncer = Debouncer(delay: Duration(milliseconds: 300));
debouncer.call(() => print('Search executed'));
debouncer.call(() => print('Only this one runs'));

Immediate Mode

import 'package:philiprehberger_debounce/philiprehberger_debounce.dart';

final debouncer = Debouncer(delay: Duration(milliseconds: 300), immediate: true);
debouncer.call(() => print('Fires immediately, then ignores for 300ms'));

Flush Pending Action

final debouncer = Debouncer(delay: Duration(milliseconds: 300));
debouncer.call(() => saveData());

// On dispose, ensure the pending save executes immediately
debouncer.flush();

Max Wait

final debouncer = Debouncer(
  delay: Duration(milliseconds: 300),
  maxWait: Duration(milliseconds: 1000),
);

// Even with continuous calls, the action fires at least every 1000ms
for (var i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
  debouncer.call(() => print('Autosave'));
  await Future.delayed(Duration(milliseconds: 50));
}

Throttler

final throttler = Throttler(interval: Duration(seconds: 1));
throttler.call(() => print('Scroll handler'));
throttler.call(() => print('Skipped - too soon'));

Stream Transformers

// Debounce a stream
textFieldStream
    .debounce(Duration(milliseconds: 300))
    .listen((query) => search(query));

// Throttle a stream
scrollStream
    .throttle(Duration(milliseconds: 100))
    .listen((offset) => updateUI(offset));
