pro_lints 5.1.0

Common Lints package.

Pro Lints

A comprehensive and opinionated set of lint rules for Dart and Flutter projects. This package provides strict but practical linting rules to help you write clean, maintainable, and error-free code.

Features

• 🎯 200+ lint rules carefully selected for production-ready code
• 🔒 Strict type safety with disabled implicit casts and dynamic types
• 📏 Consistent code style enforcing best practices
• ⚡ Production-focused rules that catch common bugs early
• 🛠️ Easy setup - just one line in your analysis_options.yaml

Installation

Add pro_lints as a dev dependency to your project:

dart pub add --dev pro_lints

Or for Flutter projects:

flutter pub add --dev pro_lints

Usage

Create or edit analysis_options.yaml in the root of your package:

include: package:pro_lints/common.yaml

That's it! The analyzer will now use the comprehensive lint rules from this package.

What's Included

Analyzer Settings

• Strict mode enabled: No implicit casts or dynamic types
• Build folder excluded from analysis
• Critical errors enforced: Missing returns, invalid assignments, required parameters

Key Lint Rules

This package enables:

• ✅ Type safety and null safety rules
• ✅ Code style consistency (trailing commas, quotes, formatting)
• ✅ Performance optimizations
• ✅ Flutter best practices
• ✅ Documentation requirements for public APIs
• ✅ Import organization and dependency management
• ✅ Error handling patterns
• ✅ Const correctness

Notable Rules

• always_declare_return_types - Explicit return types everywhere
• prefer_final_locals / prefer_final_fields - Immutability by default
• require_trailing_commas - Better diffs and formatting
• lines_longer_than_80_chars - Readable line length
• prefer_relative_imports - Cleaner import structure
• avoid_dynamic_calls - Type safety enforcement
• use_build_context_synchronously - Async Flutter safety

Customization

You can override any rule by adding it to your analysis_options.yaml:

include: package:pro_lints/common.yaml

linter:
  rules:
    # Disable a specific rule
    lines_longer_than_80_chars: false
    
    # Or enable additional rules
    always_specify_types: true
