A widget that detects specific patterns within a text and makes them interactive.

8.0.0 #

  • Breaking: TextSniffer now inherits the ambient MediaQuery text scaler by default (previously TextScaler.noScaling), so text respects the system font-size accessibility setting. Pass textScaler: TextScaler.noScaling to restore the old behavior.
  • Breaking: LinkSniffer's default pattern is stricter — it now only matches URLs with an explicit scheme (https://…) or a www. prefix, instead of any word.tld-looking token. Use LinkSniffer(pattern: LinkSniffer.loosePattern) for the old permissive behavior.
  • Added built-in PhoneSniffer, HashtagSniffer and MentionSniffer.
  • Added onLongPressMatch callback — long-pressing a match (e.g. to copy a phone number) now works on both styled spans and matchBuilder widgets; a long press suppresses the subsequent tap.
  • Added Sniffer.hoverStyle — a style merged into the match style while the mouse hovers over it (web/desktop).
  • TextSniffer now registers with an enclosing SelectionArea automatically, making the text selectable without manual selectionRegistrar wiring; the selection color falls back to the ambient DefaultSelectionStyle.
  • matchBuilder widgets are now exposed to accessibility as buttons.
  • sniffer_types.dart is now exported from the main library — a single import 'package:flutter_text_sniffer/flutter_text_sniffer.dart'; suffices.
  • RegexCache is now bounded (128 entries, oldest evicted), so dynamically generated patterns can no longer grow it without limit.
  • Added repository/issue_tracker metadata to the pubspec.

7.0.0 #

  • Breaking: removed error parameter from OnTapMatch callback.
  • Added onError callback to TextSniffer to handle errors thrown during onTapMatch execution.

6.0.0 #

  • Breaking: renamed SnifferType → Sniffer, EmailSnifferType → EmailSniffer, LinkSnifferType → LinkSniffer. Update your custom sniffer subclasses to extend Sniffer instead of SnifferType.
  • Breaking: renamed widget parameter snifferTypes → sniffers.
  • Breaking: each sniffer is now matched with its own regex instead of a single combined pattern. This preserves per-pattern flags (e.g. caseSensitive: false) and resolves overlapping matches by sniffer priority (order in the sniffers list).
  • Added entryResolver callback — an alternative to positional matchEntries that resolves entries by matched text/type instead of index. Robust when the text or match count changes.
  • Added mouseCursor: SystemMouseCursors.click on matched spans for web/desktop.
  • Example: added book_excerpt_example.dart — an annotated book reader demonstrating entryResolver with character names and glossary terms (Alice in Wonderland excerpt).

5.0.2 #

  • Fixed: changing snifferTypes without changing text now correctly re-parses. Previously the widget compared the old sniffer signature against itself, so pattern/type changes on an existing TextSniffer were ignored until the text also changed.
  • Tests: reached 100% line coverage (added coverage for matchBuilder, snifferTypes re-parsing, LinkSnifferType, SnifferType.toString, and the deprecated textScaleFactor getter).
  • Chore: added CI (analyze, format, tests with enforced 100% coverage, publish-on-release) and switched the license to MIT.

5.0.1 #

  • Docs: documented onTapMatch/matchEntries behavior (entry is optional and per-match; index is global across all matches; error is reserved).
  • Docs: added a "Large Texts (books, articles)" guide — chunk long text with ListView.builder instead of one big TextSniffer.
  • Example: added long_text_example.dart (lazy ListView.builder demo) plus a toolbar button to open it; switched example logging to debugPrint.
  • Tests: added widget tests covering parsing, tap handling and re-parsing.

5.0.0 #

  • Breaking: removed NoMatchEntryFoundException. Tapping a match no longer throws when matchEntries is empty or shorter than the number of matches — onTapMatch is now always called with match: null and error: null in that case. matchEntries is fully optional and per-match.
  • Fixed: case-insensitive matching is now preserved (regex flags were lost via the internal regex cache, breaking uppercase emails/links).
  • Fixed: tap callbacks no longer reuse a wrong index when the same text is matched more than once (matched spans are no longer cached by text).
  • Fixed: sniffersTypes with a null/empty pattern no longer produce an empty regex alternative that matched every position.
  • Perf: matches are materialized once instead of rebuilding the list per match.
  • Fixed: TapGestureRecognizers created per match are now disposed (previously leaked on every rebuild). TextSniffer is now a StatefulWidget.
  • Perf: text is parsed (regex run) only when text or sniffers change, not on every rebuild — important for large texts.
  • Non-matching text now defaults to DefaultTextStyle (theme/dark-mode aware) instead of hard-coded black.

4.4.4 #

  • Added the ability to create your own sniffer types.
  • Updated documentation

3.4.0 #

  • Improved documentation with detailed examples for onTapMatch and styling matches.
  • Enhanced README with usage instructions and examples for better developer experience.

3.3.0 #

  • New: Added support for enhanced matching logic with optional entries.

  • Added overflow property

  • Introduced searchTypes to refine search for specific patterns (e.g., phone, email, link, custom).

  • Optimized onTapMatch callback handling for better interaction with matched text.

2.2.0 #

  • fixed: maxLines and regular expression for multiple groups

1.2.0 #

  • fixed: matchEntry now is nullable because matchEntries can be empty

1.1.0 #

  • Fixed maxLines

1.0.0 #

  • Created package
