sort_pubspec_dependencies 0.0.2

Dev dart package for sorting dependencies and dev_dependencies in pubspec.yaml

Description

A Dart CLI tool for sorting dependencies in your pubspec.yaml file.

Keep your pubspec.yaml organized by alphabetically sorting dependencies: and dev_dependencies:. This tool ensures better readability and consistency across projects.

Features

• Sorts dependencies and dev_dependencies alphabetically.
• Maintains additional metadata for dependencies (e.g., paths, Git URLs and refs, version constraints).
• CLI support for easy integration into development workflows.
• The package is implemented exclusively using Dart tools, there are no transitive dependencies.
• Lightweight and fast.

Installation

Add sort_pubspec_dependencies as a dev dependency in your project:

dev_dependencies:
  sort_pubspec_dependencies: <latest-version>

Usage

Run the tool locally

dart run sort_pubspec_dependencies

Options

You can create a sort_dependencies.yaml config in the root of your project for:

• Your pubspec.yaml is located outside the main project directory, you can explicitly specify the path to it using the key: pubspecPath
• If you want to run flutter pub get after sorting, set the value true to the key needRunPubGetAfterSorting

The sort_dependencies.yaml example:

pubspecPath: 'pubspec.yaml'
needRunPugGetAfterSorting: true

Also, you can run the tool via dart run sort_pubspec_dependencies --pubspec-path=<path>/p=<path> --with-run-pub-get to avoid creating a config and get the same effect
