flutter_app_name_localization 0.1.0

A CLI tool to localize the Android app name in Flutter projects.

flutter_app_name_localization

flutter_app_name_localization is a build-time CLI for localizing the Android app name in Flutter projects. It reads app-name settings from your Flutter app's pubspec.yaml and writes the matching android/app/src/main/res/values*/strings.xml files.

This package does not register a runtime Flutter plugin.

Install

Add the package to the Flutter app that needs localized app names:

dev_dependencies:
  flutter_app_name_localization: ^0.1.0

Configure

Add a flutter_app_name_localization section to the Flutter app's pubspec.yaml:

flutter_app_name_localization:
  default: "My App"
  locales:
    - locale: "tr"
      name: "Uygulamam"
    - locale: "de"
      name: "Meine App"

• default is required.
• locales is optional.
• Locale values are written directly into Android resource qualifiers such as values-tr or values-tr-rTR.

Android Manifest

Set the application label to @string/app_name in android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml:

<application
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    ...>

The CLI validates this and prints a warning to stderr if the manifest still uses a hard-coded label.

Usage

Run the tool from the Flutter app root:

dart run flutter_app_name_localization

Or point it at a specific pubspec.yaml:

dart run flutter_app_name_localization --config path/to/pubspec.yaml

Library API

import 'package:flutter_app_name_localization/flutter_app_name_localization.dart';

void main() {
  final result = AppNameLocalizer.localize(pubspecPath: 'pubspec.yaml');
  for (final file in result.updatedFiles) {
    print(file);
  }
}
