provider 1.6.1

An helper to easily exposes a value using InheritedWidget without having to write one.

1.6.1

• Provider.of<T> now crashes with a ProviderNotFoundException when no Provider<T> are found in the ancestors of the context used.

1.6.0

• new: ChangeNotifierProvider, similar to scoped_model that exposes ChangeNotifer subclass and rebuilds dependents only when notifyListeners is called.
• new: ValueListenableProvider, a provider that rebuilds whenever the value passed to a ValueNotifier change.

1.5.0

• new: Add Consumer with up to 6 parameters.
• new: MultiProvider, a provider that makes a tree of provider more readable
• new: StreamProvider, a stream that exposes to its descendants the current value of a Stream.

• Reintroduced StatefulProvider with a modified prototype. The second argument of valueBuilder and didChangeDependencies have been removed. And valueBuilder is now called only once for the whole life-cycle of StatefulProvider.

1.3.0

• Added Consumer, useful when we need to both expose and consume a value simultaneously.

1.2.0

• Added: HookProvider, a Provider that creates its value from a Hook.
• Deprecated StatefulProvider. Either make a StatefulWidget or use HookProvider.
• Integrated the widget inspector, so that Provider widget shows the current value.

• add updateShouldNotify method to both Provider and StatefulProvider

1.1.0

• onDispose has been added to StatefulProvider
• BuildContext is now passed to valueBuilder callback
