v0.1.0 Coming Back

This version of flutter_audio_desktop brings & changes:

• Now you can listen to playback events using stream (a broadcast stream) inside AudioPlayer. This was a great problem in earlier version as one always needs to trigger UI updates whenever playback progresses, ends etc.
• One of the big problems in earlier version was that there was no way to detect if an audio playback has ended after completion. Resulting in issues like #25 & #26. Now audio.isCompleted stores bool if an audio has ended, same can be accessed from stream.
• Now you can provide any random id while creating new instance of AudioPlayer, this was a big problem earlier as new id had to be consecutive to earlier one.
• Now you can access same instance of AudioPlayer even if you make new constructor, by providing same id.
• Now asset files can be played & loaded into AudioPlayer using load method.
  • AudioSource class has two static methods
    • AudioSource.fromFile to load an audio file.
    • AudioSource.fromAsset to load an audio asset.
• Now audio field stores Audio object, inside the AudioPlayer class & contains following fields to get information about current playback.
  • file: Current loaded File.
  • isPlaying : Whether file is playing.
  • isCompleted: Whether file is ended playing.
    • By default once playback is ended, stop method is called & AudioPlayer is reverted to initial configuration.
  • isStopped: Whether file is loaded.
  • position: Position of current playback in Duration.
  • duration: Duration of current file in Duration.
• Now contructor of AudioPlayer no longer calls async methods, which could result in false assertions.
• Now ma_resource_manager is used from miniaudio_engine with MA_DATA_SOURCE_FLAG_STREAM flag.
  • This will improve general performance during playback, as whole file will not be loaded into memory.
• Structure of code improved & separated into various files & classes.
• Now device handling is present in an entirely separate class AudioDevices.
• Improvements to how methods are identified & called in method channel. flutter_types.hpp improves code readability.
• Other bugs that randomly caused termination after false assertions are also fixed to an extent.
• Removed wave & noise APIs temporarily. Apologies to everyone & MichealReed.

NOTES

• I hurried a bit with this release at the end, so queues are still unimplemented.
• I have found a different approach for this plugin, so I'll spend time on that in future.

Thankyou everyone.
