Changelog

All notable changes to the prf package will be documented in this file.

1.3.8

• Added example file for pub.dev to showcase package usage.

1.3.7

1.3.6

• Added omprehensive documentation comments for the entire library.
• Improved API reference with examples and usage notes.
• Enhanced dartdoc coverage for all public classes and methods.
• Better explanation of advanced features and type support.

1.3.5

• Improved PrfDateTime encoding reliability by enforcing endian order consistency.
• Fixed internal handling of corrupted base64 data for PrfBytes.

1.3.4

Added

• PrfJson<T> class for storing JSON-serializable objects using jsonEncode/jsonDecode.
• Graceful fallback when decoding invalid JSON or mismatched types.

1.3.3

Added

• PrfDateTime using base64-encoded 64-bit integers to persist DateTime values with millisecond precision.
• Integrated with PrfEncoded to reduce redundant logic.

1.3.2

Added

• PrfEncoded<TSource, TStore> for reusable value transformation between domain objects and SharedPreferences-compatible types.
• Supports encoding formats like JSON, binary, and base64.

1.3.1

Improved

• Added _exists check inside getValue() to allow fallback to defaultValue if key is missing.
• Improved caching logic to avoid unnecessary SharedPreferences reads.

1.3.0

Added

• PrfVariableExtensions<T> extension with:
  • .get(), .set(value), .remove(), .isNull()
  • Uses lazy SharedPreferences initialization automatically.

Changed

• Removed requirement to manually call Prf.init(). Now fully lazy-loaded via Prf.getInstance().

1.2.1

Fixed

• Minor internal refactor to prevent reinitializing _initFuture in Prf.

1.2.0

Added

• PrfBytes with transparent base64 storage of Uint8List.
• Full support for all native SharedPreferences types:
  • PrfInt
  • PrfDouble
  • PrfBool
  • PrfString
  • PrfStringList

Improved

• Unified all variable types using delegate-based constructors.
• Internal logic now handles nullability consistently and efficiently.

1.1.0

Added

• typedef support for SharedPrefsGetter<T> and SharedPrefsSetter<T>.
• Simplified PrfVariable<T> constructor by using delegates instead of abstract getter/setter classes.

Changed

• Removed old abstract classes PrfGetter and PrfSetter in favor of inline functions.

1.0.2

Improved

• Updated internal caching system for better performance on repeated .get() calls.

1.0.1

Added

• Added maybePrefs and isInitialized to Prf for improved control over initialization state.

1.0.0

Initial Release

• PrfVariable<T> base class with typed getter/setter support.
• Manual SharedPreferences injection.
• Clean and extensible architecture for managing preference values.
