solana_kit_lints 0.9.1

Shared lint rules for the Solana Kit Dart SDK.

solana_kit_lints

Shared lint rules for all packages in the Solana Kit Dart SDK.

This is an internal package (publish_to: none) that centralizes the analysis configuration for the monorepo. It is not published to pub.dev.

Installation

Install with:

dart pub add --dev solana_kit_lints

Within the solana_kit monorepo, the package resolves through the Dart workspace. This package is not intended for use outside the monorepo.

Usage

Including the lint rules

Create or update your package's analysis_options.yaml to include the shared rules:

include: package:solana_kit_lints/analysis_options.yaml

This single line gives your package the full set of lint rules used across the Solana Kit SDK. No additional configuration is needed in most cases.

For Flutter packages, include the Flutter preset instead:

include: package:solana_kit_lints/flutter_analysis_options.yaml

The Flutter preset uses flutter_lints as its base, then reapplies the Solana Kit analyzer severities and project-specific lint policy.

Adding package-specific overrides

If a specific package needs to adjust a rule, add overrides after the include:

include: package:solana_kit_lints/analysis_options.yaml

linter:
  rules:
    avoid_print: false # Allow print in example/CLI packages

Configuration

The shared analysis_options.yaml includes very_good_analysis as its base and applies the following customizations. Flutter packages use a separate preset because Dart analysis options only allow one top-level include:

include: package:flutter_lints/flutter.yaml

That Flutter preset layers the Solana Kit rules back on top.

Analyzer error severity

The following diagnostics are promoted to errors to catch problems early:

Diagnostic	Severity
missing_return	error
dead_code	error
unused_element	error
unused_import	error
unused_local_variable	error
todo	ignore

Lint rule customizations

The following rules from the base presets are customized for this project:

Rule	Value	Reason
public_member_api_docs	true	Published packages should document public API.
lines_longer_than_80_chars	false	Many error messages, type signatures, and constant names in the SDK naturally exceed 80 characters.
cancel_subscriptions	true	Catch leaked stream subscriptions.
close_sinks	true	Catch leaked sinks and controllers.
avoid_equals_and_hash_code_on_mutable_classes	false	Value-like mutable classes are allowed where package APIs require them.
