json_to_model 1.0.1

Gernerate model class from Json file. partly inspired by json_model.

json_to_model

Gernerating Dart model class(json*serializable) from Json file.
partly inspired by json_model.

Instalation

on pubspec.yaml

dependencies:
  json_to_mobile: ^1.0.1

install using pub get command or if you using dart vscode/android studio, you can use install option.

Getting started

1. Create a jsons(default) directory in the root of your project
2. Put all or Create json files inside jsons directory
3. run pub run json_to_model. or flutter pub run json_to_model flutter project

Usage

this package will read .json file, and generate .dart file, asign the type of the value as variable type and key as the variable name.

Default Feature

Description	Expression	Input	Output(declaration)	Output(import)
import model and asign type	{...:'$value'}	{"auth':'$user'}	User auth;	import 'user.dart'
import recursively	{...:'$../pathto/value'}	{"price':'$../product/price'}	Price price;	import '../product/price.dart'
asign list of type and import (can also be recursive)	{...:'$[]value'}	{"addreses':'$[]address'}	List<Address> addreses;	import 'address.dart'
use json_annotation @JsonKey	{'@JsonKey(...)':...}	{"@JsonKey(ignore: true) dynamic': 'val'}	@JsonKey(ignore: true) dynamic val;	-
import other library(input value can be array)	{'@import':...}	{"@import':'package:otherlibrary/otherlibrary.dart'}	-	import 'package:otherlibrary/otherlibrary.dart'
write code independentally(experimental)	{'@_...':...}	{"@_ // any code her':',its like an escape to write yourown code'}	// any code her,its like an escape to write yourown code	-

Examples

you can copy json below and generate using pub run json_to_model command

Basic

Source File

./jsons/user.json

{
  "id": 2,
  "username": "John Doe",
  "blocked": false
}

Generated

./lib/models/user.dart

import 'package:json_annotation/json_annotation.dart';
part 'user.g.dart';
@JsonSerializable()
class User {
      User();

  int id;
  String username;
  bool blocked;

  factory User.fromJson(Map<String,dynamic> json) => _$UserFromJson(json);
  Map<String, dynamic> toJson() => _$UserToJson(this);
}

After that, json_serializable will automatically genereate .g.dart files

./lib/models/user.g.dart

part of 'user.dart';
User _$UserFromJson(Map<String, dynamic> json) {
  return User()
    ..id = json['id'] as int
    ..username = json['username'] as String
    ..blocked = json['blocked'] as bool;
}

Map<String, dynamic> _$UserToJson(User instance) => <String, dynamic>{
      'id': instance.id,
      'username': instance.username,
      'blocked': instance.blocked,
    };

Asign Type variable

you can use $ to specify the value to be Type of variable

Source File

./jsons/user.json

{
  "id": 2,
  "username": "John Doe",
  "blocked": false,
  "addresses": "$address" // prefix $
}

In this case, $address is like telling the generator to import address.dart and asign the titled case Address as it is the type of the variable addresses.

Generated

./lib/models/user.dart

import 'package:json_annotation/json_annotation.dart';
import 'address.dart';
part 'user.g.dart';

@JsonSerializable()
class User {
  User();
  int id;
  String username;
  bool blocked;
  Address addresses;
  factory User.fromJson(Map<String, dynamic> json) => _$UserFromJson(json);
  Map<String, dynamic> toJson() => _$UserToJson(this);
}

Asign List

you can use $[] to specify the value to be List of Type of variable

Source File

./jsons/user.json

{
  "id": 2,
  "username": "John Doe",
  "blocked": false,
  "addresses": "$[]address" // prefix $[]
}

Generated

./lib/models/user.dart

import 'package:json_annotation/json_annotation.dart';
import 'address.dart';
part 'user.g.dart';

@JsonSerializable()
class User {
  User();
  int id;
  String username;
  bool blocked;
  List<Address> addresses;
  factory User.fromJson(Map<String, dynamic> json) => _$UserFromJson(json);
  Map<String, dynamic> toJson() => _$UserToJson(this);
}

json_serializable JsonKey

you can use @JsonKey in key to specify @JsonKey

Source File

./jsons/cart.json

{
  "@JsonKey(ignore: true) dynamic": "md", //jsonKey alias
  "@JsonKey(name: '+1') int": "fsdafsfg", //jsonKey alias
  "name": "wendux",
  "age": 20
}

Generated

./lib/models/cart.dart

import 'package:json_annotation/json_annotation.dart';

part 'cart.g.dart';

@JsonSerializable()
class Cart {
      Cart();

  @JsonKey(ignore: true) dynamic md; // jsonKey generated
  @JsonKey(name: '+1') int loved; // jsonKey generated
  String name;
  int age;

  factory Cart.fromJson(Map<String,dynamic> json) => _$CartFromJson(json);
  Map<String, dynamic> toJson() => _$CartToJson(this);
}
