d_serializer_builder 1.1.2

Code generator for d_serializer: generates model serializers (*.g.dart) and a global initializeDSerializer() registry for Dart and Flutter projects.

d_serializer_builder

d_serializer_builder is the code generation package used by d_serializer.

It generates:

• *.g.dart model serializers (FromJson, toJson, registration helpers)
• d_serializer_registry.g.dart with initializeDSerializer()

Installation

dependencies:
  d_serializer: ^1.0.2

dev_dependencies:
  build_runner: ^2.10.3
  d_serializer_builder: ^1.0.2

Usage

1) Annotate models

import 'package:d_serializer/d_serializer.dart';

part 'user.g.dart';

@Serializable()
class User {
  final int id;
  final String name;

  User({required this.id, required this.name});
}

2) Generate

dart run build_runner build --delete-conflicting-outputs

3) Initialize once

import 'd_serializer_registry.g.dart';

void main() {
  initializeDSerializer();
}

4) Use static API

final json = Serializer.toJson<User>(user);
final restored = Serializer.fromJson<User>(json);

Formatter Support (@Format)

The builder supports formatter pipelines per field:

• @Format.trim()
• @Format.uppercase()
• @Format.lowercase()
• @Format.date('yyyy-MM-dd')
• @Format.date('iso8601')
• @Format.custom('X')

Build-time validation includes:

• String formatters require String/String? fields.
• Date formatter requires DateTime/DateTime? fields.
• Empty custom formatter names fail generation.

For @Format.custom('X'), the model library must provide:

• XFormatToJson(dynamic value)
• XFormatFromJson(dynamic value)

What Is Generated

For a model User, generation includes:

• UserFromJson(Map<String, dynamic>)
• extension UserSerializer on User { Map<String, dynamic> toJson() }
• registerUserSerializer()

And global file:

• initializeDSerializer() that registers all annotated models under lib/

Notes

• This package is intended to be used through build_runner.
• Generated files are source-of-truth outputs and should not be manually edited.
