ciach 0.3.0

Finds unused (never-referenced) declarations in a Dart/Flutter package by driving the Dart analysis server over LSP and querying textDocument/references.

0.3.0

• Lower the minimum Dart SDK constraint from ^3.12.2 to ^3.10.0. (#20)
• Never report a toJson() as unused; jsonEncode(obj) calls it by dynamic dispatch, with no source-level reference for the search to see. Opt back in with --report-tojson. (#17)
• Add --generated-suffix (repeatable) to treat extra filename suffixes as generated, on top of the built-in set (*.g.dart, *.freezed.dart, …). (#13)
• Open generated files during analysis so a declaration referenced only from generated code is no longer misreported as unused. (#13)
• Fix --remove corrupting compact single-line enums (enum E { a, b, c }) when removing one or more values. (#11)
• Fix --remove deleting the leading doc/annotation comment and header when removing a value from a compact single-line enum. (#11)
• Report a whole dead class as unused, not just its constructor, so --remove deletes the class instead of stranding it. Detection is conservative: any reference from outside the class keeps it alive. (#10)
• Remove a dead StatefulWidget together with its paired private State subclass, so State<DeletedWidget> never dangles. (#10)
• Add remove-safety guards: --remove skips (but still reports) any removal that wouldn't compile — emptying a still-referenced enum, dropping a sole constructor with final fields, or dropping a super-forwarding constructor. (#10)
• Add opt-in --unused-union-members to report sealed types that are only pattern-matched and never constructed. Report-only: --remove never deletes them. (#10)
• Skip call methods by default; implicit-call references (obj(...)) aren't resolvable, so they were always misreported as unused. (#14)
• Report an unused private constructor like any other dead declaration (and remove it with --remove); a sole zero-parameter ClassName._() also gets a hint suggesting abstract final class to keep a static-only class non-instantiable. (#14)
• Fix enum values reached only through .values iteration being reported as unused. (#15)
• Fix unused enum values being reported under the enum kind instead of enum-value. (#12)
• Don't report deserialized freezed union variants as unused; the generated fromJson builds the concrete subclass directly, bypassing the redirecting factory. (#16)

0.2.0+2

• Update the README. (#6)

0.2.0+1

• Add pub.dev topics and issue_tracker metadata for discoverability. No code changes. (#5)

0.2.0

• Add --remove to delete unused declarations from source after reporting them, with a confirmation prompt; --remove --force skips the prompt. (#4)
• Skip operator overloads (operator +, operator ==, …) by default — the analysis server can't resolve infix operator syntax back to the declaration, so a used operator was always reported as unused. Pass --operators to include them anyway. (#4)
• Report declarations referenced only from a dartdoc [Xxx] comment link as a separate, informational "doc-only" category (in text, json, and github output) instead of hiding them entirely. Doc-only findings are never deleted by --remove. (#4)
• Clarify installation instructions: global activation vs. adding ciach as a dev dependency. (#4)

0.1.0

Initial implementation. (#1)
