StreamTransformer<S, T>.fromHandlers constructor

StreamTransformer<S, T>.fromHandlers(
  1. {void handleData(
    1. S data,
    2. EventSink<T> sink
    )?,
  2. void handleError(
    1. Object error,
    2. StackTrace stackTrace,
    3. EventSink<T> sink
    )?,
  3. void handleDone(
    1. EventSink<T> sink
    )?}
)

Creates a StreamTransformer that delegates events to the given functions.

Example use of a duplicating transformer:

stringStream.transform(StreamTransformer<String, String>.fromHandlers(
    handleData: (String value, EventSink<String> sink) {
      sink.add(value);
      sink.add(value);  // Duplicate the incoming events.
    }));

Transformers that are constructed this way cannot use captured state if they are used in streams that can be listened to multiple times.

StreamController<String> controller = StreamController.broadcast();
controller.onListen = () {
  scheduleMicrotask(() {
    controller.addError("Bad");
    controller.addError("Worse");
    controller.addError("Worst");
  });
};
var sharedState = 0;
var transformedStream = controller.stream.transform(
    StreamTransformer<String>.fromHandlers(
        handleError: (error, stackTrace, sink) {
  sharedState++; // Increment shared error-counter.
  sink.add("Error $sharedState: $error");
}));

transformedStream.listen(print);
transformedStream.listen(print); // Listen twice.
// Listening twice to the same stream makes the transformer share the same
// state. Instead of having "Error 1: Bad", "Error 2: Worse",
// "Error 3: Worst" as output (each twice for the separate subscriptions),
// this program emits:
// Error 1: Bad
// Error 2: Bad
// Error 3: Worse
// Error 4: Worse
// Error 5: Worst
// Error 6: Worst

Implementation

factory StreamTransformer.fromHandlers(
    {void handleData(S data, EventSink<T> sink)?,
    void handleError(Object error, StackTrace stackTrace, EventSink<T> sink)?,
    void handleDone(EventSink<T> sink)?}) = _StreamHandlerTransformer<S, T>;
