/// An extension on `List` to filter out duplicate elements based on a specified identifier.
|
||||
///
|
||||
/// This extension provides a `unique` method that removes duplicate entries
|
||||
/// from the list, optionally using a custom identifier function.
|
||||
///
|
||||
/// Example usage:
|
||||
/// ```dart
|
||||
/// final list = [1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4];
|
||||
/// final uniqueList = list.unique();
|
||||
/// print(uniqueList); // Output: [1, 2, 3, 4]
|
||||
///
|
||||
/// final people = [
|
||||
/// Person(id: 1, name: 'Alice'),
|
||||
/// Person(id: 2, name: 'Bob'),
|
||||
/// Person(id: 1, name: 'Alice Duplicate'),
|
||||
/// ];
|
||||
/// final uniquePeople = people.unique((person) => person.id);
|
||||
/// print(uniquePeople.map((p) => p.name)); // Output: ['Alice', 'Bob']
|
||||
/// ```
|
||||
///
|
||||
/// The method also supports in-place filtering for efficient memory usage.
|
||||
extension Unique<E, Id> on List<E> {
|
||||
/// Returns a new list with unique elements, filtered by the provided [id] function.
|
||||
///
|
||||
/// If an [id] function is provided, it is used to determine uniqueness based on the
|
||||
/// result of applying [id] to each element. If [id] is `null`, elements themselves
|
||||
/// are used as identifiers.
|
||||
///
|
||||
/// Parameters:
|
||||
/// - [id] (optional): A function that returns a unique identifier of type `Id`
|
||||
/// for each element, used to filter duplicates. If omitted, the element itself
|
||||
/// is treated as the unique identifier.
|
||||
/// - [inplace] (optional): If `true`, modifies the original list in place; if `false`,
|
||||
/// returns a new list with unique elements. Defaults to `true`.
|
||||
///
|
||||
/// Returns:
|

/// A `List<E>` containing unique elements based on the specified [id] or the elements
|
||||
/// themselves if no [id] function is provided.
