A CLI to generate boilerplate Flutter projects from a GitHub template.

Flutterkit #

Pub Version GitHub License

Overview #

flutterkit is a command-line tool designed to streamline the process of creating Flutter projects by using custom templates hosted on GitHub. With this tool, users can quickly generate boilerplate Flutter app source code from their own pre-configured templates, allowing for fast and easy project setup.

Features #

  • Boilerplate Generation: Quickly generate a Flutter project using your own template hosted on GitHub.
  • Customizable Templates: Create and maintain your own Flutter project structure and code, then upload it to GitHub. The CLI allows you to reuse this template for future projects.
  • Seamless GitHub Integration: The CLI fetches the template from your GitHub repository via a URL, ensuring your project is always up-to-date with your latest code.

Installation #

To install flutterkit, run the following command:

dart pub global activate flutterkit

Ensure that the Dart SDK is installed on your machine. If not, follow the instructions on Dart's official website.

Usage #

  1. Create a GitHub Repository for Your Template:

    • Set up a Flutter project with your desired files ans folder using mustache syntax (There is a specific folder structure for templating) and boilerplate code or use my template for demo as well as example.
    • You can set your own variables in flutterkit.yml file.
  2. Use the CLI to Generate a New Project:

    flutterkit create <title> --org <org> --url <your_github_repo_url>
    

    Replace <your_github_repo_url> with the GitHub URL where your template is hosted.

    Example:

    flutterkit create example --url https://github.com/jemish54/flutterkit_template
    
  3. Start Building Your Project: After running the command, the CLI will download your template, apply it to a new Flutter project, and set up the project with your custom boilerplate code.

Example Workflow #

  1. Push your customized Flutter project to a GitHub repository:

    git init
    git add .
    git commit -m "Initial commit"
    git remote add origin https://github.com/your_username/your_template_repo.git
    git push -u origin main
    
  2. Run the flutterkit to generate a new project:

    flutterkit create <title_for_project> --url https://github.com/your_username/your_template_repo
    
  3. Open the generated project in your IDE and start building your app.
