json_serializable 1.0.1

json_serializable: ^1.0.1 copied to clipboard

• Explicit new and const are no longer generated.

• BREAKING By default, code generated to support toJson now creates a top-level function instead of a mixin. The default for the generate_to_json_function is now true. To opt-out of this change, set generate_to_json_function to false.

• Now supports changing the serialized values of enums using JsonValue.

  enum AutoApply {
    none,
    dependents,
    @JsonValue('all_packages')
    allPackages,
    @JsonValue('root_package')
    rootPackage
  }
  

• JsonSerializableGenerator.generateForAnnotatedElement now returns Iterable<String> instead of String.

• SerializeContext and DeserializeContext now have an addMember function which allows TypeHelper instances to add additional members when handling a field. This is useful for generating shared helpers, for instance.

• BREAKING The header option is no longer supported and must be removed from build.yaml.

• If a manual build script is used the json_serializable builder must be switched to hideOutput: true, and the combiningBuilder from source_gen must be included following this builder. When using a generated build script with pub run build_runner or webdev this is handled automatically.

• Support the Dart 2.0 stable release.

• Small fixes to support Dart 2 runtime semantics.

• Support serializing types provided by platform-specific libraries (such as Flutter) if they use custom convert functions.

• Added support for JsonKey.required.

  • When true, generated code throws a MissingRequiredKeysException if the key does not exist in the JSON map used to populate the annotated field.
  • Will be captured and wrapped in a CheckedFromJsonException if checked is enabled in json_serializable.

• Added JsonKey.disallowNullValue.

  • When true, generated code throws a DisallowedNullValueException if the corresponding keys exist in in the JSON map, but it's value is null.
  • Will be captured and wrapped in a CheckedFromJsonException if checked is enabled in json_serializable.

• Added support for Uri conversion.

• Added missing checked parameter to the JsonSerializableGenerator.withDefaultHelpers constructor.

• Added explicit_to_json configuration option.

  • See JsonSerializableGenerator.explicitToJson for details.

• Added generate_to_json_function configuration option.

  • See JsonSerializableGenerator.generateToJsonFunction for details.

• Added support for JsonSerializable.disallowUnrecognizedKeys.
  • Throws an UnrecognizedKeysException if it finds unrecognized keys in the JSON map used to populate the annotated field.
  • Will be captured and wrapped in a CheckedFromJsonException if checked is enabled in json_serializable.
• All fromJson constructors now use block syntax instead of fat arrows.

• Added support for JsonKey.defaultValue.

• enum deserialization now uses helpers provided by json_annotation.

• Small change to how nullable Map values are deserialized.

• Small whitespace changes to JsonLiteral generation to align with dartfmt.

• Improve detection of toJson and fromJson in nested types.

• Fixed a bug introduced in 0.5.4 in some cases where enum values are nested in collections.

• Add checked configuration option. If true, generated fromJson functions include extra checks to validate proper deserialization of types.

• Added any_map to configuration. Allows fromJson code to support dynamic Map instances that are not explicitly Map<String, dynaimc>.

• Added support for classes with type arguments.

• Use Map.map for more map conversions. Simplifies generated code and fixes a subtle issue when the Map key type is dynamic or Object.

• Require the latest version of package:analyzer - v0.32.0.

• If JsonKey.fromJson function parameter is Iterable or Map with type arguments of dynamic or Object, omit the arguments when generating a cast. _myHelper(json['key'] as Map) instead of _myHelper(json['key'] as Map<dynamic, dynamic>).

• JsonKey.fromJson/.toJson now support functions with optional arguments.

• If JsonKey.fromJson/toJson are set, apply them before any custom or default TypeHelper instances. This allows custom DateTime parsing, by preempting the existing DateTime TypeHelper.

• Support new fromJson and toJson fields on JsonKey.

• Use log exposed by package:build. This requires end-users to have at least package:build_runner ^0.8.2.

• Updated minimum package:source_gen dependency to 0.8.1 which includes improved error messages.

• BREAKING Removed deprecated support for require_library_directive / requireLibraryDirective in build_runner configuration.

• BREAKING Removed the deprecated generators.dart library.

• BREAKING Removed jsonPartBuilder function from public API.

• Support the latest package:source_gen.

• Private and ignored fields are now excluded when generating serialization and deserialization code by using @JsonKey(ignore: true).

• Throw an exception if a private field or an ignored field is referenced by a required constructor argument.

• More comprehensive escaping of string literals.

package:json_serializable/type_helper.dart #

• Breaking The nullable parameter on TypeHelper.serialize and .deserialize has been removed. It is now exposed in SerializeContext and DeserializeContext abstract classes as a read-only property.

• Potentially Breaking The metadata property on SerializeContext and DeserializeContext is now readonly. This would potentially break code that extends these classes – which is not expected.

• Potentially Breaking Inherited fields are now processed and used when generating serialization and deserialization code. There is a possibility that the generated code may change in undesired ways for classes annotated for v0.3.

• Avoid unnecessary braces in string escapes.

• Use single quotes when generating code.

• The require_library_directive option now defaults to false. The option will be removed entirely in 0.4.0.

• Support the latest version of the analyzer package.

• Expanded package:build support to allow version 0.12.0.

• Add a build.yaml so the builder can be consumed by users of build_runner version 0.7.0.

• Now requires a Dart 2.0.0-dev release.

• NEW top-level library json_serializable.dart.

  • Replaces now deprecated generators.dart to access JsonSerializableGenerator and JsonLiteralGenerator.

  • Adds the jsonPartBuilder function to make it easy to create a PartBuilder, without creating an explicit dependency on source_gen.

• BREAKING UnsupportedTypeError added a new required constructor argument: reason.

• BREAKING The deprecated annotations.dart library has been removed. Use package:json_annotation instead.

• BREAKING The arguments to TypeHelper serialize and deserialize have changed.

  • SerializeContext and DeserializeContext (new classes) are now passed instead of the TypeHelperGenerator typedef (which has been deleted).

• JsonSerializableGenerator now supports an optional useWrappers argument when generates and uses wrapper classes to (hopefully) improve the speed and memory usage of serialization – at the cost of more code.

  NOTE: useWrappers is not guaranteed to improve the performance of serialization. Benchmarking is recommended.

• Make null field handling smarter. If a field is classified as not nullable, then use this knowledge when generating serialization code – even if includeIfNull is false.

• Throw an exception if a duplicate JSON key is detected.

• Support the nullable field on the JsonSerializable class annotation.

• Throw a more helpful error when a constructor is missing.

• Moved the annotations in annotations.dart to package:json_annotations.

  • Allows package authors to release code that has the corresponding annotations without requiring package users to inherit all of the transitive dependencies.

• Deprecated annotations.dart.

• Write out toJson methods more efficiently when the first fields written are not intercepted by the null-checking method.

• Simplify the serialization of Map instances when no conversion is required for values.

• Handle int literals in JSON being assigned to double fields.

• Enable support for enum values.
• Added asConst to JsonLiteral.
• Improved the handling of Dart-specific characters in JSON strings.

• Upgrade to package:source_gen v0.7.0

• When serializing classes that implement their own fromJson constructor, honor their constructor parameter type.

• BREAKING Types are now segmented into their own libraries.

  • package:json_serializable/generators.dart contains Generator implementations.

  • package:json_serializable/annotations.dart contains annotations. This library should be imported with your target classes.

  • package:json_serializable/type_helpers.dart contains TypeHelper classes and related helpers which allow custom generation for specific types.

• BREAKING Generation fails for types that are not a JSON primitive or that do not explicitly supports JSON serialization.

• BREAKING TypeHelper:

  • Removed can methods. Return null from (de)serialize if the provided type is not supported.

  • Added (de)serializeNested arguments to (de)serialize methods allowing generic types. This is how support for Iterable, List, and Map is implemented.

• BREAKING JsonKey.jsonName was renamed to name and is now a named parameter.

• Added support for optional, non-nullable fields.

• Added support for excluding null values when generating JSON.

• Eliminated all implicit casts in generated code. These would end up being runtime checks in most cases.

• Provide a helpful error when generation fails due to undefined types.

• Fix homepage in pubspec.yaml.

• Split off from source_gen.

• Add /* unsafe */ comments to generated output likely to be unsafe.

• Support (de)serializing values in Map.

• Fix ordering of fields when they are initialized via constructor.

• Don't use static members when calculating fields to (de)serialize.
