If you miss an extension, please open an issue or pull request
On this page you can find some of the extensions. Take a look at the docs to see all of them.
Add the following to your pubspec.yaml:
dependencies:
dartx: anyAfter you import the library, you can use the extensions.

the predicate didn't match.

and then converting it to String.

int secondsInADay = 1.days.inSeconds;
Duration totalTime = [12.5.seconds, 101.milliseconds, 2.5.minutes].sum();
DateTime oneWeekLater = DateTime.now() + 1.week;Check out ⏰ time.dart for more information and examples.
Ensures that this value lies in the specified range.
final numberInRange = 123.coerceIn(0, 1000); // 123
final numberOutOfRange = -123.coerceIn(0, 1000); // 0Converts this value to binary form.
Converts this value to character
final character = 97.toChar(); // aCreates a range between two ints (upwards, downwards and with custom steps)
// upwards with default step size 1
for (final i in 1.rangeTo(5)) {
print(i); // 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
}
// downwards with custom step
for (final i in 10.rangeTo(2).step(2)) {
print(i); // 10, 8, 6, 4, 2
}Applies some of the required arguments to a function and returns a function which takes the remaining arguments.
void greet(String firstName, String lastName) {
print('Hi $firstName $lastName!');
}
final greetStark = greet.partial('Stark');
greetStark('Sansa'); // Hi Sansa Stark!
greetStark('Tony'); // Hi Tony Stark!Get the name and extension of a file.
final file = File('some/path/testFile.dart');
print(file.name); // testFile.dart
print(file.nameWithoutExtension); // testFileAppend text to a file.
await File('someFile.json').appendText('{test: true}');Checks if a file is inside a directory.
final dir = Directory('some/path');
File('some/path/file.dart').isWithin(dir); // trueReferences a file within a Directory
Directory androidDir = Directory('flutter-app/android');
File manifestFile = androidDir.file("app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml");References a directory within a Directory
Directory androidDir = Directory('flutter-app/android');
Directory mainSrc = androidDir.directory("app/src/main");Checks if a Directory contains a FileSystemEntity. This can be a File or a Directory.
Use the recursive argument to include the subdirectories.
final File someFile = File('someFile.txt');
final Directory someDir = Directory('some/dir');
final Directory parentDir = Directory('parent/dir');
parentDir.contains(someFile);
parentDir.contains(someDir);
parentDir.contains(someFile, recursive: true);
parentDir.contains(someDir, recursive: true);This is the async method, which returns a Future<bool>.
Same as .contains(FileSystemEntity entity, {bool recursive = false}) but synchronous. Returns a bool.
