clock

• Add a deepCopyLinks argument to copyPath and copyPathSync.
• Remove the @visibleForTesting annotation from SharedStdIn.
• Potentially Breaking Make the stream parameter required for
  SharedStdIn.new.
  • This is treated as non-breaking because the class was marked as visible
    for testing only.
• Potentially Breaking AnsiCode and AnsiCodeType marked final. These
  were never intended to support subclasses and were already closed for
  extension with private generative constructors. They are now marked final
  and statically restricted from use as an interface.

• Update SDK constraints to >=2.12.0 <3.0.0.
• Update to null safety.

This release contains the Clock class that was defined in quiver. It's backwards-compatible with the quiver version, and mostly backwards-compatible with the old version of the clock package.

New Features

• A top-level clock field has been added that provides a default Clock implementation. It can be controlled by the withClock() function. It should generally be used in preference to manual dependency-injection, since it will work with the fake_async package.

• A Clock.stopwatch() method has been added that creates a Stopwatch that uses the clock as its source of time.

Changes Relative to clock 0.1

• The top-level new getter and getStopwatch() methods are deprecated. clock.new() and clock.stopwatch() should be used instead.

• Clock.getStopwatch() is deprecated. Clock.stopwatch() should be used instead.

• The isFinal argument to withClock() is deprecated.

• new Clock() now takes an optional positional argument that returns the current time as a DateTime instead of its old arguments.

• Clock.now() is now a method rather than a getter.
