streamdeck_flutter 0.4.0

Build Elgato Stream Deck plugins with Flutter. Renders UI offscreen, slices frames into key-sized tiles, and pushes them via the Stream Deck WebSocket protocol.

0.4.0

Breaking

• StreamDeckPlugin no longer takes actionBuilder. Each ManifestAction carries its own build (WidgetBuilder), and Manifest.actions is the single source for both manifest.json and event dispatch.

Added

• runHeadless(widget) — renders the plugin in a detached render tree with no on-screen window. The host window is orderOut'd; tiles are captured from the detached tree.
• ManifestAction.build — the WidgetBuilder that renders the action (excluded from JSON), so Manifest.actions drives both manifest.json and event dispatch.
• Manifest models (Manifest, ManifestAction, …) moved here from streamdeck_client and are re-exported from the package barrel.
• Layout moved here from streamdeck_client (render geometry is a rendering concern) and is re-exported.
• buildGrid(actions, devices) — builds the per-device grid with empty-slot placeholders, moved here from the client's grid getter.

Removed

• The streamdeck.size window-resize channel (Dart MethodChannel + native handleResize). The window is never shown, so there is nothing to resize.

Changed

• Tiles are captured at the device's reported devicePixelRatio (Raster.pixelRatio) instead of a hardcoded 2.0, and encoded as JPEG (Raster.jpegQuality, default 85) via package:image reusing the change-detection RGBA. Together ~14× smaller payloads on Stream Deck + (which reports 1.0). Raster.mimeType is sent to setImage/setFeedback.
• JPEG encoding runs on a long-lived background isolate (JpegWorker) — only changed tiles are sent across (TransferableTypedData) — keeping the DCT/quantization work off the UI/render isolate.

0.3.1

Fixed

• Build command preserves manifest.json across rebuilds, avoiding unnecessary double restart.

0.3.0

Breaking

• Remove builder from ManifestAction and ManifestState. Use actionBuilder on StreamDeckPlugin instead.
• StreamDeckAction takes a single builder (WidgetBuilder) instead of keypadChild / encoderChild.
• Keypad and Dial take builder (WidgetBuilder) instead of child (Widget).
• StreamDeckAction.animating defaults to false.
• Unified CLI: streamdeck_flutter build / run subcommands replace separate build, create, docs executables.
• --uuid / -i is required for build and run commands.
• --assets / -a flag removed — assets auto-discovered from AssetManifest.bin.

Added

• actionBuilder on StreamDeckPlugin — single builder for all actions, reads StreamDeck.actionOf(context) for routing.
• CaptureBoundary — custom render object that notifies the raster only when pixels actually repaint.
• setupLogging() — automatic log setup in HeadlessBinding, writes to app.log and developer.log.
• run command: build, link, restart, attach with hot reload, tail logs.
• .vm_service file written by plugin for CLI attach discovery.
• Bootstrap manifest on first install — plugin writes full manifest on launch.
• Manifest skip-write when content unchanged.
• Window resizes dynamically when devices connect/disconnect.
• contentMinSize set on macOS window.
• canvas.json bundled as package asset.
• Empty placeholder actions skip raster registration.

Fixed

• Animation timestamp assertion with monotonic Stopwatch.
• Skip frame pump when engine has a scheduled frame.
• setFeedbackLayout removed — manifest handles encoder layout.
• Handle already-linked gracefully in build command.

0.2.0

• Remove DialPressEvent handling, add DialDownEvent / DialUpEvent.
• Keypad / Dial accept WidgetBuilder instead of Widget.
• StreamDeckAction takes single builder.
• CustomMultiChildLayout for device grid positioning.
• Client factory caches instances by port.

0.1.1

• Flatten directory structure: move action/model files into lib/src/.
• Consolidate analysis_options.yaml to workspace root.
• Regenerate freezed outputs and format all code.
• Add macOS plugin class for Flutter plugin registration.

0.1.0

• Initial release.
• Offscreen Flutter rendering with tile-based change detection.
• Stream Deck WebSocket protocol client with auto-reconnection.
• Keypad, encoder, and touchscreen action support.
• Gesture injection (tap, scroll, dial) from Stream Deck events.
• CLI tools: build, create, docs.
• Target device: Stream Deck + (4x2 keys, 4 encoder slots).
