cancelation_token

Visão geral do pacote

Orientação gerada a partir de informações públicas. Apenas para referência.

The cancelation_token package offers a clean interface for managing cancellation in asynchronous operations, supporting various implementations like cancelable tasks, timeouts, and composite tokens. It enables developers to gracefully handle operation cancellation across platforms, improving responsiveness and resource management in Flutter apps. Ideal for scenarios involving network requests, timers, or long-running computations that may need to be interrupted. The package is lightweight and designed for use with Dart's async/await patterns.

Casos de uso

Managing cancellable network requests
Implementing timeout mechanisms
Coordinating multiple async operations
Handling user-initiated task cancellation
Controlling long-running background processes

Principais recursos

Support for cancelable futures
Timeout-based cancellation
Composite token grouping
Cross-platform compatibility
Simple API integration

Indicado para

Developers needing fine-grained control over async operations
Apps with frequent network or timer usage
State management systems requiring cancellation support
Teams prioritizing clean async code structure

Considerações

Requires understanding of async/await flow
May add complexity for simple use cases
Not suitable for non-async operations
Limited documentation beyond basic examples
Best used with other state management solutions

This package provides an interface for cancelation tokens as well as various implementations:

CancelableToken which can be canceled programmatically;
CompositeToken which is canceled when any or all tokens are canceled;
TimeoutToken which is canceled after a timeout period.

Example

Cancel a long-running execution after a timeout.

import 'package:cancelation_token/cancelation_token.dart';

void main() async {
  final timeout = Duration(seconds: 5);
  final errorOnTimeout = CanceledException.withStackTrace('Too long!');
  final token = TimeoutToken(timeout, errorOnTimeout);
  token.ensureStarted();

  try {
    await longProcess(token);
  } on CanceledException catch (ex, st) {
    print(ex.message);
    print(ex.stackTrace);
    print(st);
  }
}

Future<void> longProcess(CancelationToken token) async {
  // very long indeed!
  while (true) {
    token.throwIfCanceled();
    await Future.delayed(const Duration(milliseconds: 100));
  }
}
