Custom Commands

You can also create custom commands for your project.

2. Create the main.dart file in the bin folder with following code:

import 'package:velvet_cli/velvet_cli.dart';

void main(List<String> arguments) {
  createVelvetCli().run(arguments);

3. Create a command. Create a commands folder inside bin folder and create a file with the command name. For example, if you want to create a command called hello, create a file called hello_command.dart in the commands folder with the following code:

import 'dart:async';

import 'package:velvet_cli/velvet_cli.dart';

class HelloCommand extends VelvetCommand {
  @override
  String get name => 'hello';

  @override
  String get description => 'Prints "Hello, World!"';

  @override
  FutureOr<void> run() {
    print('Hello, World!');
  }
}

4. Register the command. Open the main.dart file in the bin folder and add the following code:

import 'package:velvet_cli/velvet_cli.dart';

import 'commands/hello_command.dart';

void main(List<String> arguments) {
  createVelvetCli()
    ..withCommands((commandHandler) {
      commandHandler.add(HelloCommand());
    })
    ..run(arguments);
}

5. Finally, add executables in pubspec.yaml:

executables:
  your_project_name:

6. Run the command:

flutter run your_project_name:main hello
