_If you miss an extension, please open an issue or pull request_

### Resources:

- [Documentation](https://pub.dev/documentation/dartf/latest/dartf/dartf-library.html)
- [Pub Package](https://pub.dev/packages/dartf)
- [GitHub Repository](https://github.com/alexrintt/dartf)

On this page you can find some of the extensions. Take a look at the docs to see all of them.

## Getting started

Add the following to your `pubspec.yaml`:

```dart
dependencies:
dartf: any
```

After you import the library, you can use the extensions.

```dart
import 'package:dartf/dartf.dart';

final slice = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5].slice(1, -2); // [2, 3, 4]
```

## Iterable

### .slice()

Returns elements at indices between `start` (inclusive) and `end` (inclusive).

```dart
final list = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
final last = list.slice(-1); // [5]
final lastHalf = list.slice(3); // [3, 4, 5]
final allButFirstAndLast = list.slice(1, -2); // [1, 2, 3, 4]
```

### .sortedBy() & .thenBy()

Sort lists by multiple properties.

```dart
final dogs = [
Dog(name: "Tom", age: 3),
Dog(name: "Charlie", age: 7),
Dog(name: "Bark", age: 1),
Dog(name: "Cookie", age: 4),
Dog(name: "Charlie", age: 2),
];

final sorted = dogs
.sortedBy((dog) => dog.name)
.thenByDescending((dog) => dog.age);
// Bark, Cookie, Charlie (7), Charlie (2), Tom
```

### .distinctBy()

Get distinct elements from a list.

```dart
final list = ['this', 'is', 'a', 'test'];
final distinctByLength = list.distinctBy((it) => it.length); // ['this', 'is', 'a']
```

### .flatten()

Get a new lazy `Iterable` of all elements from all collections in a collection.

```dart
final nestedList = [[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]];
final flattened = nestedList.flatten(); // [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
```

### .chunkWhile() & .splitWhen()

Chunk entries as long as two elements match a predicate:

```dart
final list = [1, 2, 4, 9, 10, 11, 12, 15, 16, 19, 20, 21];
final increasingSubSequences = list.chunkWhile((a, b) => a + 1 == b);

// increasingSubSequences = [[1, 2], [4], [9, 10, 11, 12], [15, 16], [19, 20, 21]]
```

`splitWhen` is the opposite of `chunkWhile` that starts a new chunk every time
the predicate _didn't_ match.

## int

### buildString()

Builds new string by populating newly created `StringBuffer` using provided `builderAction`
and then converting it to `String`.

```dart
final word = buildString((sb) {
for (var i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
sb.write(i);
}
});
// 0123456789
```

### .ordinal

Returns an ordinal number of `String` type for any integer

```dart
final a = 1.ordinal(); // 1st
final b = 108.ordinal(); // 108th
```

## String

### .capitalize

Returns a copy of the string having its first letter uppercased, or the original string, if it's empty or already starts with an upper case letter.

```dart
final word = 'abcd'.capitalize(); // Abcd
final anotherWord = 'Abcd'.capitalize(); // Abcd
```

### .decapitalize

Returns a copy of the string having its first letter lowercased, or the original string, if it's empty or already starts with a lower case letter.

```dart
final word = 'abcd'.decapitalize(); // abcd
final anotherWord = 'Abcd'.decapitalize(); // abcd
```

### .isAscii

final numOne = '1'.toDoubleOrNull(); // 1.0
final numTwo = '1.2'.toDoubleOrNull(); // 1.2

```

### .orEmpty()

Returns the string if it is not `null`, or the empty string otherwise.

```dart
String? nullableStr;
final str = nullableStr.orEmpty(); // ''
```

### .matches()

Returns `true` if this char sequence matches the given regular expression.

```dart
print('as'.matches(RegExp('^.s\$'))) // true
print('mst'.matches(RegExp('^.s\$'))) // false
```

### Time utils

dartf exports [@jogboms](https://github.com/jogboms) great [⏰ time.dart](https://github.com/jogboms/time.dart) package so you can do the following:

```dart
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](https://github.com/jogboms/time.dart) for more information and examples.

## num

### .coerceIn()

Ensures that this value lies in the specified range.

```dart
final numberInRange = 123.coerceIn(0, 1000); // 123
final numberOutOfRange = -123.coerceIn(0, 1000); // 0
```

### .toBytes()

Converts this value to binary form.

### .toChar()

Converts this value to character

```dart
final character = 97.toChar(); // a
```

## range

### rangeTo

Creates a range between two ints (upwards, downwards and with custom steps)

```dart
// 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
}
```

## Function

### .partial(), .partial2() ...

Applies some of the required arguments to a function and returns a function which takes the remaining arguments.

```dart
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!
```

## File

### .name

Get the name and extension of a file.

```dart
final file = File('some/path/testFile.dart');
print(file.name); // testFile.dart
print(file.nameWithoutExtension); // testFile
```

### .appendText()

Append text to a file.

```dart
await File('someFile.json').appendText('{test: true}');
```

### .isWithin()

Checks if a file is inside a directory.

```dart
final dir = Directory('some/path');
File('some/path/file.dart').isWithin(dir); // true
```

## Directory

### .file(String)

References a file within a `Directory`

```dart
Directory androidDir = Directory('flutter-app/android');
File manifestFile = androidDir.file("app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml");
```

References a directory within a `Directory`

### .directory(String)

```dart
Directory androidDir = Directory('flutter-app/android');
Directory mainSrc = androidDir.directory("app/src/main");
```

### .contains(FileSystemEntity entity, {bool recursive = false})

Checks if a `Directory` contains a `FileSystemEntity`. This can be a `File` or a `Directory`.

Use the `recursive` argument to include the subdirectories.

```dart
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`.

### .containsSync(FileSystemEntity entity, {bool recursive = false})

Same as `.contains(FileSystemEntity entity, {bool recursive = false})` but synchronous. Returns a `bool`.
