Install
Important: going from version 2.0.0 and forward, flutter-view supports Dart 2.13 and up, enforcing null-safety. This means breaking changes. If you have a legacy project, stay at a version below 2.0.0, in both flutter-view and the flutter-view-widgets library which has also been updated.
Requirements
Flutter-view is an npm project and requires a working NodeJS installation. Of course you should have a working Flutter install as well.
Installing flutter-view
To install flutter-view, run the following command in your terminal:
npm install -g flutter-view
On a Mac add sudo:
sudo npm install -g flutter-view
Important: the modern version of flutter-view is for Dart 2.13 and higher, and support type safety. If you have an older project, install flutter-view@1.0.3 instead.
Note: you may need to add --unsafe-perm for things to work due to an issue with node-gyp
To test your installation worked, type the flutter-view command in your Terminal or console:
>> flutter-view
flutter-view - flutter template code generator Converts html and css templates into Flutter view widget code. Please pass a directory to scan. flutter-view -h for help.
If you got the above text, your installation was successful.
Installing flutter-view-widgets
Flutter-view has an optional Dart tooling library. It allows you to use the reactive, assign and life-cycle tags.
Adding the dependency
To install it, add the following dependency to your project pubspec.yaml file:
flutter_view_widgets: ^2.2.4-dev.1
Important: the modern version of flutter-view is for Dart 2.13 and higher, and support type safety. If you have an older project, use the following:
flutter_view_widgets: 1.0.6
Then perform a flutter packages get to pull in the new dependency.
Note: for the latest version, check the flutter-view-widgets pub page.
