A tool to help you find missing, under-promoted, over-promoted, and unused dependencies.

Getting Started

Install dependency_validator

Add the following to your pubspec.yaml:

dev_dependencies:
  dependency_validator: ^1.0.0

Usage

This package comes with a single executable: dependency_validator. To run this executable: pub run dependency_validator. This usage will run the tool and report any missing, under-promoted, over-promoted, and unused dependencies.

• Missing: When a dependency is used in the package but not declared in the pubspec.yaml
  • Optionaly do not fail by using the --no-fatal-missing flag.
• Under-promoted: When a dependency is used within lib/ but only declared as a dev_dependency.
  • Optionaly do not fail by using the --no-fatal-under-promoted flag.
• Over-promoted: When a dependency is only used outside lib/ but declared as a dependency.
  • Optionaly do not fail by using the --no-fatal-over-promoted flag.
• Unused: When a dependency is not used in the package but declared in the pubspec.yaml.
  • Optionaly do not fail by using the --no-fatal-unused flag.
  • Some packages are not imported by any dart files but are used for their executables. If that is the case they can be white-listed by using the --ignore option.
