flutter_hooks 0.11.0

A flutter implementation of React hooks. It adds a new kind of widget with enhanced code reuse.

0.11.0

Breaking change:

• Removed HookState.didBuild.
  If you still need it, use addPostFrameCallback or Future.microtask.

Non-breaking changes:

• Fix a bug where the order in which hooks are disposed is incorrect.

• It is now allowed to rebuild a HookWidget with more/less hooks than previously. Example:

  Widget build(context) {
    useSomething();
    if (condition) {
      return Container();
    }
    useSomething()
    return Container();
  }
  

• Deprecated Hook.use in favor of a new short-hand use. Before:

  Hook.use(MyHook());
  

  After:

  use(MyHook());
  

0.10.0

Breaking change:

• The order in which hooks are disposed has been reversed.

  Consider:

  useSomething();
  useSomethingElse();
  

  Before, the useSomething was disposed before useSomethingElse. Now, useSomethingElse is disposed before the useSomething.

  The reason for this change is for cases like:

  // Creates an AnimationController
  final animationController = useAnimationController();
  // Immediatly listen to the AnimationController
  useListenable(animationController);
  

  Before, when the widget was disposed, this caused an exception as useListenable unsubscribed to the AnimationController after its dispose method was called.

Non-breaking changes:

• Added a way for hooks to potentially abort a widget rebuild.
• Added StatefulHookWidget, a StatefulWidget that can use hooks inside its build method.
