Commands

Create a project

riv create project:my_app

Generates a ready-to-run Flutter project with:

• Clean Architecture folder structure
• Home module (view + viewmodel)
• Go Router with typed routes
• API client (Dio) with token refresh, retry, error handling
• API endpoints file
• Local storage (secure + shared preferences)
• Dependency injection via Riverpod providers
• App constants from .env (via flutter_dotenv)
• Freezed failure types
• Material 3 theme (light + dark)
• Shared widgets and models folders
• All dependencies pre-configured

Create a feature module

riv create page:products

Generates the full Clean Architecture module in one shot:

lib/features/products/
├── data/
│   ├── datasources/product_remote_datasource.dart
│   ├── models/product_model.dart
│   └── repositories/product_repository_impl.dart
├── domain/
│   ├── entities/product.dart
│   ├── repositories/product_repository.dart
│   └── usecases/get_products_usecase.dart
└── presentation/
    ├── providers/product_providers.dart    # DI wiring
    ├── viewmodels/product_viewmodel.dart
    ├── views/product_view.dart
    └── widgets/

Also auto-registers the route in app_router.dart and runs build_runner if configured.

Create individual components

riv create viewmodel:cart on products    # Riverpod ViewModel + Freezed state
riv create view:cart on products         # ConsumerWidget with state.when()
riv create provider:auth on users        # @riverpod data provider
riv create screen:settings               # Responsive layout (mobile/tablet/desktop)

Delete a feature module

riv delete page:products           # asks for confirmation
riv delete page:products --force   # skip confirmation

Removes the module directory and unregisters its route.

Generate model from JSON

riv generate model on products with data/product.json

Reads the JSON, infers Dart types, outputs a Freezed model with fromJson() and toEntity().

Generate translations

riv generate locales lib/l10n

Convert existing project

riv init

Adds the Riverflow folder structure and core files to an existing Flutter project. Skips files that already exist.

Watch mode

riv watch

Runs build_runner watch for continuous code generation. Press Ctrl+C to stop.

Package management

riv install dio                   # add package
riv install mocktail --dev        # add dev package
riv remove unused_pkg             # remove package

Other

riv sort                          # sort imports
riv update                        # update CLI to latest version
riv --version                     # show version
riv help                          # show all commands
riv create --help                 # help for a specific command
