make-flutter

Overview

The make-flutter project utilizes a Makefile to streamline various Flutter development tasks. This Makefile is designed to automate common Flutter development workflows such as fetching dependencies, running build runners, formatting code, running tests with coverage, and more. It simplifies the development process, making it more efficient and error-free.

Setup

To use the Makefile in your project, follow these steps:

  1. Clone the make-flutter Repository: Ensure that the make-flutter repository is cloned one directory level up from your current project.

  2. Reference the Makefile: In your project's Makefile, add the following lines to reference the make-flutter Makefile:

    # Define the path to the external Makefile
    EXTERNAL_MAKEFILE := ../make-flutter/Makefile
    
    # Include the external Makefile
    include $(EXTERNAL_MAKEFILE)

    This setup allows you to use the functionalities defined in the make-flutter Makefile directly in your project.

Makefile Content

The make-flutter Makefile includes the following targets:

  • pub_get: Runs Flutter pub get to fetch project dependencies.
  • build_runner: Executes build_runner to generate necessary files.
  • format: Formats the code in the lib and test directories.
  • test: Runs tests with coverage and opens the coverage report.
  • pretty: A combination of pub_get, build_runner, and format for a comprehensive cleanup and setup.
  • fix: Applies suggested fixes to the code.

Each target is designed to be self-contained, allowing for flexible use depending on the developer's needs.

Usage

To use any of the targets in the Makefile, run the following command in your terminal:

make [target]

For example, to format your project, you would run:

make format

This will execute the formatting process for both the lib and test directories of your Flutter project.
