Pub Package Build Status

A tool for generating toString method for class, based on build_runner.

Who uses this tool #

Someone who is boring to write and maintain the method toString()

Installation #

Add dependencies in your pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  to_string: ^1.0.0

dev_dependencies:
  to_string_generator: ^1.0.0
  build_runner: ^1.7.1

Usage #

In class you want to write toString() method:

  • Annotate the class with ToString()
  • Override the toString method.
/// cat.dart
import 'package:to_string/to_string.dart';

part 'cat.g.dart';

@ToString()
class Cat {
  Cat(this.color, this.weight);
  
  String color;
  double weight;
  
  @override
  String toString() {
    // [_$CatToString] is generated at `cat.g.dart`,
    // and it returns likes "Cat{color: white, weight: 1.2}"
    return _$CatToString(this);
  }
}

By default, getter will not be shown in toString. But you can annotate ToString to getter to make it show.

/// cat.dart
import 'package:to_string/to_string.dart';

part 'cat.g.dart';

@ToString()
class Cat {
  Cat(this.color, this.weight, this.wings);
  
  String color;
  double weight;
  String wings;
  
  @ToString()
  bool get hasWings => wings != null;
  
  @override
  String toString() {
    // [_$CatToString] is generated at `cat.g.dart`,
    // and it returns likes "Cat{color: white, weight: 1.2, wings: null, hasWings: false}"
    return _$CatToString(this);
  }
}

Lastly, we use build_runner!

In flutter

flutter packages pub run build_runner build
