Line Limit Lint

Overview

This lint rule is designed to highlight Flutter widget files that exceed a specified size threshold.
The purpose is to encourage developers to keep widget files concise and focused.

Installation

  1. Add the following dependency to your pubspec.yaml file:
dev_dependencies:
  line_limit_lint: any
  custom_lint: any  
  1. Run flutter pub get to fetch the dependency.

Configuration

In your project's analysis_options.yaml file, add the following configuration:

analyzer:  
  plugins:  
    - custom_lint  
custom_lint:  
  rules:  
  - $your_limit$_lines_limit_in_widgets: true  

You can set any limit:

custom_lint:  
  rules:  
    - 150_lines_limit_in_widgets: true  

If the rule is not specified explicitly or incorrect data is specified, the standard limit will be enabled - 120 lines. You can find more information about custom list rules here: https://invertase.io/blog/custom-linter-rules

Usage

After installation and configuration, run flutter pub get and dart run custom lint.
It take some time for fetching all your files.

Any widget files exceeding the specified size threshold will be highlighted as lint warnings.
