slang_build_runner

build_runner support for slang.

Useful if you want to combine multiple code generators.

This library ensures that slang is recognized by build_runner.

# pubspec.yaml
dependencies:
  slang: <version>

dev_dependencies:
  build_runner: <version>
  slang_build_runner: <version>

Make sure to use build.yaml instead of slang.yaml.

# build.yaml
targets:
  $default:
    builders:
      slang_build_runner:
        options:
          base_locale: en

The generate command:

dart run build_runner build --delete-conflicting-outputs

Legacy builder

Some users reported problems (e.g. Asset already exists) with the new builder that uses build_runner's asset writer.

• https://github.com/slang-i18n/slang/issues/351
• https://github.com/dart-lang/build/issues/4402
• https://github.com/dart-lang/build/issues/4975

If you need the old behavior where the files are written directly to disk via dart:io, you can opt into the legacy builder.

Note: It does not support build_runner build --workspace.

Disable the default builder and enable the legacy one:

# build.yaml
targets:
  $default:
    builders:
      slang_build_runner:
        enabled: false
      slang_build_runner:legacy:
        enabled: true
        options:
          base_locale: en
