runDartCompiler method

void runDartCompiler(DartScript script, { required String pathToExe, Progress? progress, String? workingDirectory, })

Run the 'dart compiler' command. script is the path to the dcli script we are compiling. pathToExe is the path (including the filename) to write the compiled ex to . If workingDirectory is not passed then the current working directory is used. The workingDirectory should contain the pubspec.yaml that is used to compile the script.

Implementation

void runDartCompiler(
  DartScript script, {
  required String pathToExe,
  Progress? progress,
  String? workingDirectory,
}) {
  final runArgs = <String>[];

  workingDirectory ??= script.pathToScriptDirectory;

  RunnableProcess process;
  if (useDartCommand) {
    /// use dart compile exe
    runArgs
      ..add('compile')
      ..add('exe')
      ..add(script.pathToScript)
      ..add('--output=$pathToExe');
    process = RunnableProcess.fromCommandArgs(
      dartExeName,
      runArgs,
      workingDirectory: script.pathToScriptDirectory,
    );
  } else {
    if (pathToDartToNativeExe == null) {
      throw DCliException(
        'Unable to compile as the dart2native executable '
        'not found on your path.',
      );
    }

    /// use old dart2native
    runArgs
      ..add(script.pathToScript)
      ..add('--output=$pathToExe');

    process = RunnableProcess.fromCommandArgs(
      pathToDartToNativeExe!,
      runArgs,
      workingDirectory: workingDirectory,
    );
  }

  process
    ..start(extensionSearch: false)
    ..processUntilExit(progress, nothrow: false);
