Cleanbev

A powerful command-line tool for Dart and Flutter projects that automatically detects unused assets and helps keep your project clean. Cleanbev scans your project for asset references, identifies unused files, and prompts you for confirmation before removing them.

Features

  • 🔍 Automatic Asset Detection: Scans your project to find all asset files and their usage
  • ⚠️ Unused Asset Identification: Identifies assets that are defined but never referenced in code
  • ✅ Safe Deletion: Asks for confirmation before removing any files
  • 🚀 Easy to Use: Simple command-line interface with clear feedback
  • 📊 Detailed Reports: Shows exactly which assets are unused and where used assets are referenced

Installation

As a Command-Line Tool

1- Activate it globally:

dart pub global activate cleanbev

2 - Run it directly from your project root directory:

dart pub global run cleanbev

Usage

Basic Usage

Run cleanbev in your project root:

cleanbev

By default, it scans the assets/ directory defined in your project.

Custom Asset Path

Specify a custom assets directory:

cleanbev --assets-path assets/images

The default assets directory is assets.

How It Works

  1. Scanning: Cleanbev reads your pubspec.yaml to find all declared assets
  2. Analysis: It searches your Dart/Flutter code for references to each asset
  3. Reporting: Displays a list of unused assets found
  4. Confirmation: Asks for your approval before deleting any files
  5. Cleanup: Removes only the assets you confirm

Example Output

$ dart pub global run cleanbev --assets-path assets/images
