Constructors

new ByteStream(Stream<List<int>> stream) #

Creates a new Object instance.

Object instances have no meaningful state, and are only useful through their identity. An Object instance is equal to itself only.

Methods

Future<bool> any(bool test(T element)) #

inherited from Stream

Checks whether test accepts any element provided by this stream.

Completes the Future when the answer is known. If this stream reports an error, the Future will report that error.

Future<bool> any(bool test(T element)) {
 _FutureImpl<bool> future = new _FutureImpl<bool>();
 StreamSubscription subscription;
 subscription = this.listen(
     (T element) {
       _runUserCode(
         () => test(element),
         (bool isMatch) {
           if (isMatch) {
             subscription.cancel();
             future._setValue(true);
           }
         },
         _cancelAndError(subscription, future)
       );
     },
     onError: future._setError,

     },
     cancelOnError: true);
 return future;
}

Stream<T> asBroadcastStream({void onListen(StreamSubscription subscription), void onCancel(StreamSubscription subscription)}) #

inherited from StreamView

Returns a multi-subscription stream that produces the same events as this.

If this stream is already a broadcast stream, it is returned unmodified.

If this stream is single-subscription, return a new stream that allows multiple subscribers. It will subscribe to this stream when its first subscriber is added, and will stay subscribed until this stream ends, or a callback cancels the subscription.

If onListen is provided, it is called with a subscription-like object that represents the underlying subscription to this stream. It is possible to pause, resume or cancel the subscription during the call to onListen. It is not possible to change the event handlers, including using StreamSubscription.asFuture.

If onCancel is provided, it is called in a similar way to onListen when the returned stream stops having listener. If it later gets a new listener, the onListen function is called again.

Use the callbacks, for example, for pausing the underlying subscription while having no subscribers to prevent losing events, or canceling the subscription when there are no listeners.

docs inherited from Stream<T>
Stream<T> asBroadcastStream({void onListen(StreamSubscription subscription),
                            void onCancel(StreamSubscription subscription)})
   => _stream.asBroadcastStream(onListen: onListen, onCancel: onCancel);

Future<String> bytesToString([Encoding encoding = Encoding.UTF_8]) #

Collect the data of this stream in a String, decoded according to encoding, which defaults to Encoding.UTF_8.

Future<String> bytesToString([Encoding encoding=Encoding.UTF_8]) =>
   toBytes().then((bytes) => decodeString(bytes, encoding));

Future<bool> contains(Object needle) #

inherited from Stream

Checks whether needle occurs in the elements provided by this stream.

Completes the Future when the answer is known. If this stream reports an error, the Future will report that error.

Future<bool> contains(Object needle) {
 _FutureImpl<bool> future = new _FutureImpl<bool>();
 StreamSubscription subscription;
 subscription = this.listen(
     (T element) {
       _runUserCode(
         () => (element == needle),
         (bool isMatch) {
           if (isMatch) {
             subscription.cancel();
             future._setValue(true);
           }
         },
         _cancelAndError(subscription, future)
       );
     },
     onError: future._setError,
     onDone: () {
       future._setValue(false);
     },
     cancelOnError: true);
 return future;
}

Stream<T> distinct([bool equals(T previous, T next)]) #

inherited from Stream

Skips data events if they are equal to the previous data event.

The returned stream provides the same events as this stream, except that it never provides two consequtive data events that are equal.

Equality is determined by the provided equals method. If that is omitted, the '==' operator on the last provided data element is used.

Stream<T> distinct([bool equals(T previous, T next)]) {
 return new _DistinctStream(this, equals);
}

Future drain([futureValue]) #

inherited from Stream

Discards all data on the stream, but signals when it's done or an error occured.

When subscribing using drain, cancelOnError will be true. This means that the future will complete with the first error on the stream and then cancel the subscription.

In case of a done event the future completes with the given futureValue.

Future drain([var futureValue]) => listen(null, cancelOnError: true)
   .asFuture(futureValue);

Future<T> elementAt(int index) #

inherited from Stream

Returns the value of the indexth data event of this stream.

If an error event occurs, the future will end with this error.

If this stream provides fewer than index elements before closing, an error is reported.

Future<T> elementAt(int index) {
 if (index is! int || index < 0) throw new ArgumentError(index);
 _FutureImpl<T> future = new _FutureImpl<T>();
 StreamSubscription subscription;
 subscription = this.listen(
   (T value) {
     if (index == 0) {
       subscription.cancel();
       future._setValue(value);
       return;
     }
     index -= 1;
   },
   onError: future._setError,
   onDone: () {
     future._setError(new StateError("Not enough elements for elementAt"));
   },
   cancelOnError: true);
 return future;
}

Future<bool> every(bool test(T element)) #

inherited from Stream

Checks whether test accepts all elements provided by this stream.

Completes the Future when the answer is known. If this stream reports an error, the Future will report that error.

Future<bool> every(bool test(T element)) {
 _FutureImpl<bool> future = new _FutureImpl<bool>();
 StreamSubscription subscription;
 subscription = this.listen(
     (T element) {
       _runUserCode(
         () => test(element),
         (bool isMatch) {
           if (!isMatch) {
             subscription.cancel();
             future._setValue(false);
           }
         },
         _cancelAndError(subscription, future)
       );
     },
     onError: future._setError,
     onDone: () {
       future._setValue(true);
     },
     cancelOnError: true);
 return future;
}

Stream expand(Iterable convert(T value)) #

inherited from Stream

Creates a new stream from this stream that converts each element into zero or more events.

Each incoming event is converted to an Iterable of new events, and each of these new events are then sent by the returned stream in order.

Stream expand(Iterable convert(T value)) {
 return new _ExpandStream<T, dynamic>(this, convert);
}

Future<dynamic> firstWhere(bool test(T element), {Object defaultValue()}) #

inherited from Stream

Finds the first element of this stream matching test.

Returns a future that is filled with the first element of this stream that test returns true for.

If no such element is found before this stream is done, and a defaultValue function is provided, the result of calling defaultValue becomes the value of the future.

If an error occurs, or if this stream ends without finding a match and with no defaultValue function provided, the future will receive an error.

Future<dynamic> firstWhere(bool test(T element), {Object defaultValue()}) {
 _FutureImpl<dynamic> future = new _FutureImpl();
 StreamSubscription subscription;
 subscription = this.listen(
   (T value) {
     _runUserCode(
       () => test(value),
       (bool isMatch) {
         if (isMatch) {
           subscription.cancel();
           future._setValue(value);
         }
       },
       _cancelAndError(subscription, future)
     );
   },
   onError: future._setError,
   onDone: () {
     if (defaultValue != null) {
       _runUserCode(defaultValue, future._setValue, future._setError);
       return;
     }
     future._setError(new StateError("firstMatch ended without match"));
   },
   cancelOnError: true);
 return future;
}

Future fold(initialValue, combine(previous, T element)) #

inherited from Stream

Reduces a sequence of values by repeatedly applying combine.

Future fold(var initialValue, combine(var previous, T element)) {
 _FutureImpl result = new _FutureImpl();
 var value = initialValue;
 StreamSubscription subscription;
 subscription = this.listen(
   (T element) {
     _runUserCode(
       () => combine(value, element),
       (newValue) { value = newValue; },
       _cancelAndError(subscription, result)
     );
   },
   onError: (e) {
     result._setError(e);
   },
   onDone: () {
     result._setValue(value);
   },
   cancelOnError: true);
 return result;
}

Future forEach(void action(T element)) #

inherited from Stream

Executes action on each data event of the stream.

Completes the returned Future when all events of the stream have been processed. Completes the future with an error if the stream has an error event, or if action throws.

Future forEach(void action(T element)) {
 _FutureImpl future = new _FutureImpl();
 StreamSubscription subscription;
 subscription = this.listen(
     (T element) {
       _runUserCode(
         () => action(element),
         (_) {},
         _cancelAndError(subscription, future)
       );
     },
     onError: future._setError,
     onDone: () {
       future._setValue(null);
     },
     cancelOnError: true);
 return future;
}

Stream<T> handleError(void handle(error), {bool test(error)}) #

inherited from Stream

Creates a wrapper Stream that intercepts some errors from this stream.

If this stream sends an error that matches test, then it is intercepted by the handle function.

An [AsyncError] [:e:] is matched by a test function if test(e) returns true. If test is omitted, every error is considered matching.

If the error is intercepted, the handle function can decide what to do with it. It can throw if it wants to raise a new (or the same) error, or simply return to make the stream forget the error.

If you need to transform an error into a data event, use the more generic Stream.transformEvent to handle the event by writing a data event to the output sink

Stream<T> handleError(void handle( error), { bool test(error) }) {
 return new _HandleErrorStream<T>(this, handle, test);
}

Future<String> join([String separator = ""]) #

inherited from Stream

Collects string of data events' string representations.

If separator is provided, it is inserted between any two elements.

Any error in the stream causes the future to complete with that error. Otherwise it completes with the collected string when the "done" event arrives.

Future<String> join([String separator = ""]) {
 _FutureImpl<String> result = new _FutureImpl<String>();
 StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
 StreamSubscription subscription;
 bool first = true;
 subscription = this.listen(
   (T element) {
     if (!first) {
       buffer.write(separator);
     }
     first = false;
     try {
       buffer.write(element);
     } catch (e, s) {
       subscription.cancel();
       result._setError(_asyncError(e, s));
     }
   },
   onError: (e) {
     result._setError(e);
   },
   onDone: () {
     result._setValue(buffer.toString());
   },
   cancelOnError: true);
 return result;
}

Future<dynamic> lastWhere(bool test(T element), {Object defaultValue()}) #

inherited from Stream

Finds the last element in this stream matching test.

As firstWhere, except that the last matching element is found. That means that the result cannot be provided before this stream is done.

Future<dynamic> lastWhere(bool test(T element), {Object defaultValue()}) {
 _FutureImpl<dynamic> future = new _FutureImpl();
 T result = null;
 bool foundResult = false;
 StreamSubscription subscription;
 subscription = this.listen(
   (T value) {
     _runUserCode(
       () => true == test(value),
       (bool isMatch) {
         if (isMatch) {
           foundResult = true;
           result = value;
         }
       },
       _cancelAndError(subscription, future)
     );
   },
   onError: future._setError,
   onDone: () {
     if (foundResult) {
       future._setValue(result);
       return;
     }
     if (defaultValue != null) {
       _runUserCode(defaultValue, future._setValue, future._setError);
       return;
     }
     future._setError(new StateError("lastMatch ended without match"));
   },
   cancelOnError: true);
 return future;
}

StreamSubscription<T> listen(void onData(T value), {void onError(error), void onDone(), bool cancelOnError}) #

inherited from StreamView

Adds a subscription to this stream.

On each data event from this stream, the subscriber's onData handler is called. If onData is null, nothing happens.

On errors from this stream, the onError handler is given a object describing the error.

If this stream closes, the onDone handler is called.

If cancelOnError is true, the subscription is ended when the first error is reported. The default is false.

docs inherited from Stream<T>
StreamSubscription<T> listen(void onData(T value),
                            { void onError(error),

inherited from Stream

Creates a new stream that converts each element of this stream to a new value using the convert function.
