generateForAnnotatedElement method

  1. @override
dynamic generateForAnnotatedElement(
  1. Element element,
  2. ConstantReader annotation,
  3. BuildStep buildStep
)

Implement to return source code to generate for element.

This method is invoked based on finding elements annotated with an instance of T. The annotation is provided as a ConstantReader.

Supported return values include a single String or multiple String instances within an Iterable or Stream. It is also valid to return a Future of String, Iterable, or Stream.

Implementations should return null when no content is generated. Empty or whitespace-only String instances are also ignored.

Implementation

@override
generateForAnnotatedElement(Element element, ConstantReader annotation, BuildStep buildStep) {
  element as ClassElement;
  final buf = StringBuffer();
  naming(element, annotation);
  buf.writeln(writeTypes(element, annotation));
  buf.writeln(writeToMapFunc(element));
  buf.writeln(writeFromMapFunc(element));
  buf.writeln(writeRef(element));
  return buf.toString();
}
