A simple and easy command-line generation tool generating image assets keys for Dart and Flutter projects. Inspired by easy_localization:generate.

Getting Started #

Motivation #

In Flutter you need use asset path string directly:

Image.asset('assets/images/image.png')

You trust the human factor to validate the path correctness to the asset. It is not safe. If you get wrong you know it later in runtime only.

The safe way to pass it to generation tool:

Image.asset(ImagesKeys.image_png)

Add to your pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  images_keys: <last_version>

You can simply get information about command line arguments. Open terminal in your project path and run command:

pub run images_keys:images_keys -h

for flutter:

flutter pub run images_keys:images_keys -h

Arguments	Short	Default	Description
--help	-h		Help info
--source-dir	-S	assets/images	Folder containing image files
--output-dir	-O	lib/generated	Output folder stores for the generated file
--output-file	-o	images_keys.images_keys.dart	Output file name

See example for more details.
