Spider

A small dart library to generate Assets dart code from assets folder. It generates dart class with static const variables in it which can be used to reference the assets safely anywhere in the flutter app.

Breaking Changes since v1.0.0:

Instead of declaring package name separately for each group, spider now takes package key-value pair as a global configuration.

Example

Before

Widget build(BuildContext context) {
  return Image(image: AssetImage('assets/background.png'));
}

After

Widget build(BuildContext context) {
  return Image(image: AssetImage(Assets.background));
}

Generated Assets Class

class Assets {
  static const String background = 'assets/background.png';
}

This method allows no error scope for string typos. Also, it provides auto-complete in the IDE which comes very handy when you have large amount of assets.

Installation

This is package is an independent library that is not linked to your project. So there's no need to add it to your flutter project as it works as a global command line tool for all of your projects.
