🛠️ Smart Asset Generator

A powerful and flexible Dart/Flutter CLI tool to auto-generate asset reference classes, barrel files, and even GetX module scaffolding — making asset management and project structure consistent, clean, and fast.

✨ Features

✅ Automatically scans folders and generates asset reference classes (AppImages, etc.)
✅ Converts file names to camelCase constants
✅ Supports nested folders and all file types
✅ Barrel file generator to export Dart files from any directory
✅ Modular code generator for GetX (controller, binding, view)
✅ Project cloning with custom Android/iOS package names and optional path
✅ CLI-ready with clean syntax
✅ Fully customizable output structure
✅ Works in Flutter and pure Dart projects

📦 Use Cases

  • Generate AppImages class to avoid hardcoded asset strings
  • Create exports.dart barrel file to group exports cleanly
  • Scaffold complete module (binding/controller/view) with a single command
  • Clone a Flutter project with new app name and package IDs
  • Keep your imports scalable and clean in large projects

🚀 Installation

In your Flutter/Dart project’s pubspec.yaml:

dev_dependencies:
  smart_asset_generator:
    path: ../smart_asset_generator  # adjust path as needed

Then run:

flutter pub get

🏃 CLI Usage

Run using:

dart run smart_asset_generator <command> [arguments]

🔹 Commands Overview

Command Description
asset Generate Dart class with asset paths
barrel Generate a barrel file that exports Dart files
module Create a module with controller, binding, and view files
clone Clone the entire project with new package identifiers

🖼️ Generate Asset Class

dart run smart_asset_generator asset <asset_path> [class_name]
Argument Required Description
asset_path ✅ Path to folder containing asset files
class_name ❌ Class name (default: AppAssets)

✅ Example

dart run smart_asset_generator asset assets/images AppImages

Output:

lib/generated/app_images.dart

📦 Generate Barrel File

dart run smart_asset_generator barrel <directory_path> [output_file_name]
Argument Required Description
directory_path ✅ Folder to scan for .dart files
output_file_name ❌ Output file name (default: exports.dart)

✅ Example

dart run smart_asset_generator barrel lib/widgets widget_exports

Output:

lib/widgets/widget_exports.dart

🧱 Generate Module (GetX structure)

dart run smart_asset_generator module name=<module_name> location=<path> [export=<barrel_file_path>]
Argument Required Description
name ✅ Module name (home, profile, etc.)
location ✅ Where to create the module (e.g., lib/modules)
export ❌ Optional barrel file path to append exports to

✅ Example

dart run smart_asset_generator module name=home location=lib/modules

Creates:

lib/modules/home/
├── bindings/home_binding.dart
├── controller/home_controller.dart
└── view/home_page.dart

Also appends exports to:

lib/modules/exports.dart

You can override export file:

dart run smart_asset_generator module name=login location=lib/ui export=lib/ui/index.dart

🔁 Clone Existing Project

dart run smart_asset_generator clone name=<new_project_name> android=<android_package> ios=<ios_package> [path=<directory_path>]
Argument Required Description
name ✅ New Flutter project name in snake_case
android ✅ New Android package name (e.g., com.my.app)
ios ✅ New iOS bundle identifier (e.g., com.my.app)
path ❌ Optional path where the new project will be created (default: parent folder)

✅ Example

dart run smart_asset_generator clone name=new_app android=com.new.android ios=com.new.ios path=/Users/you/FlutterProjects

Performs:

  • Duplicates current project folder to the specified path (or the parent folder if path is not provided)
  • Updates:
    • pubspec.yaml project name
    • Android: applicationId in build.gradle, AndroidManifest.xml, .iml files
    • iOS: CFBundleIdentifier in Info.plist
    • Renames root .iml and Android module .iml files
    • Replaces package names and project references in all source files
  • Ensures the cloned project is ready to open and run independently

🗂️ Output Summary

Command Output Location
asset lib/generated/{class_name}.dart
barrel {directory}/{output_file_name}.dart
module {location}/{name}/... + exports to barrel file
clone {path}/{new_project_name}/
