code_builder 1.0.0-beta+1

A fluent API for generating Dart code

1.0.0-beta+1

• Add support for switch statements
• Add support for a raw expression and statement
  • new ExpressionBuilder.raw(...)
  • new StatemnetBuilder.raw(...)

This should help cover any cases not covered with builders today.

• Allow referring to a ClassBuilder and TypeBuilder as an expression
• Add support for accessing the index [] operator on an expression

BREAKING CHANGES

• Changed ExpressionBuilder.asAssign to always take an ExpressionBuilder as target and removed the value property. Most changes are pretty simple, and involve just using reference(...). For example:

literal(true).asAssign(reference('flag'))

... emits flag = true.

1.0.0-beta

• Add support for async, sync, sync* functions
• Add support for expression asAwait, asYield, asYieldStar
• Add toExportBuilder and toImportBuilder to types and references
• Fix an import scoping bug in return statements and named constructor invocations.
• Added constructor initializer support
• Add while and do {} while loop support
• Add for and for-in support
• Added a name getter for ParameterBuilder

1.0.0-alpha+7

• Make use of new analyzer API in preparation for analyzer version 0.30.

1.0.0-alpha+6

• MethodBuilder.closure emits properly as a top-level function

1.0.0-alpha+5

• MethodBuilder with no statements will create an empty block instead of a semicolon.

// main() {}
method('main')

• Fix lambdas and closures to not include a trailing semicolon when used as an expression.

 // () => false
 new MethodBuilder.closure(returns: literal(false));

1.0.0-alpha+4

• Add support for latest pkg/analyzer.

1.0.0-alpha+3

• BREAKING CHANGE: Added generics support to TypeBuilder:

importFrom becomes a named, not positional argument, and the named argument genericTypes is added (Iterable<TypeBuilder>).

// List<String>
new TypeBuilder('List', genericTypes: [reference('String')])

• Added generic support to ReferenceBuilder:

// List<String>
reference('List').toTyped([reference('String')])

• Fixed a bug where ReferenceBuilder.buildAst was not implemented
• Added and and or methods to ExpressionBuilder:

// true || false
literal(true).or(literal(false));

// true && false
literal(true).and(literal(false));

• Added support for creating closures - MethodBuilder.closure:

// () => true
new MethodBuilder.closure(
  returns: literal(true),
  returnType: lib$core.bool,
)

1.0.0-alpha+2

• Added returnVoid to well, return;
• Added support for top-level field assignments:

new LibraryBuilder()..addMember(literal(false).asConst('foo'))

• Added support for specifying a target when using asAssign:

// Outputs bank.bar = goldBar
reference('goldBar').asAssign('bar', target: reference('bank'))

• Added support for the cascade operator:

// Outputs foo..doThis()..doThat()
reference('foo').cascade((c) => <ExpressionBuilder> [
  c.invoke('doThis', []),
  c.invoke('doThat', []),
]);

• Added support for accessing a property

// foo.bar
reference('foo').property('bar');

1.0.0-alpha+1

• Slight updates to confusing documentation.
• Added support for null-aware assignments.
• Added show and hide support to ImportBuilder
• Added deferred support to ImportBuilder
• Added ExportBuilder
• Added list and map literals that support generic types

1.0.0-alpha

• Large refactor that makes the library more feature complete.

0.1.1

• Add concept of Scope and change toAst to support it

Now your entire AST tree can be scoped and import directives automatically added to a LibraryBuilder for you if you use LibraryBuilder.scope.

0.1.0

• Initial version
