Bloc Library

An extension to the [bloc state management library](https://github.com/felangel/bloc) which automatically persists and restores bloc states and is built on top of [hydrated_cubit](https://pub.dev/packages/hydrated_cubit).

## Overview

`hydrated_bloc` exports a `Storage` interface which means it can work with any storage provider. Out of the box, it comes with its own implementation: `HydratedStorage`.

`HydratedStorage` is built on top of [path_provider](https://pub.dev/packages/path_provider) for a platform-agnostic storage layer. The out-of-the-box storage implementation reads/writes to file using the `toJson`/`fromJson` methods on `HydratedBloc` and should perform very well for most use-cases (performance reports coming soon). `HydratedStorage` is supported for desktop ([example](https://github.com/felangel/hydrated_bloc/tree/master/example)).

## Usage

### 1. Use `HydratedStorage`

```dart
void main() async {
WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
HydratedBloc.storage = await HydratedStorage.build();
runApp(App());
}
```

### 2. Extend `HydratedBloc` and override `fromJson`/`toJson`

```dart
enum CounterEvent { increment, decrement }

class CounterBloc extends HydratedBloc {
CounterBloc() : super(0);

@override
Stream mapEventToState(CounterEvent event) async* {
switch (event) {
case CounterEvent.decrement:
yield state - 1;
break;
case CounterEvent.increment:
yield state + 1;
break;
}
}

@override
int fromJson(Map json) => json['value'] as int;

@override
Map toJson(int state) => { 'value': state };
}
```

Now our `CounterBloc` is a `HydratedBloc` and will automatically persist its state. We can increment the counter value, hot restart, kill the app, etc... and our `CounterBloc` will always retain its state.

## Custom Storage Directory

By default, all data is written to [temporary storage](https://github.com/flutter/plugins/blob/61c39d1e79e8f36030162a5f85fb491c65f4e51c/packages/path_provider/lib/path_provider.dart#L24) which means it can be wiped by the operating system at any point in time.

An optional `storageDirectory` can be provided to override the default temporary storage directory:

```dart
HydratedBloc.storage = await HydratedStorage.build(
storageDirectory: await getApplicationDocumentsDirectory(),
);
```

## Custom Hydrated Storage

If the default `HydratedStorage` doesn't meet your needs, you can always implement a custom `Storage` by simply implementing the `Storage` interface and initializing `HydratedBloc` with the custom `Storage`.

```dart
// my_hydrated_storage.dart

class MyHydratedStorage implements Storage {
@override
dynamic read(String key) {
// TODO: implement read
}

@override
Future write(String key, dynamic value) async {
// TODO: implement write
}

@override
Future delete(String key) async {
// TODO: implement delete
}

@override
Future clear() async {
// TODO: implement clear
}
}
```

```dart
// main.dart

HydratedBloc.storage = MyHydratedStorage();
```
