README
# DartPoet
[](../LICENSE)
DartPoet is a Kotlin-based library designed for generating Dart code programmatically. DartPoet, inspired by the design
of JavaPoet and KotlinPoet, simplifies the creation of Dart source files by providing a fluent and expressive API. This
library is particularly
useful for developers looking to automate Dart code generation, ensuring consistency and reducing manual coding effort.
The API allows the creation of the core functionalities of the Dart language, such as classes, methods, fields and more.
Some of the newer features are not directly supported by the api itself, but can be added by using the `CodeBlock`
class.
At least the generated code relies on the null-safety feature from Dart. Which means that the code is generated for Dart
version `2.12.0` or higher.
> [!CAUTION]
>
> The library can be used in production, but it is still in development.
> This means that some features can contain bugs or may change in the future.
> We recommend to use the library with caution and to report any issues you encounter.
## Usage
At the moment the library is only available over the snapshot repository. This means that you have to add the snapshot
repository from Maven to your project. The library is not yet available on Maven Central.
The url to the repository can be found [here](https://s01.oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/)
To add the library to your project you can use the following snippet:
Maven:
```xml
dev.themeinerlp
dartpoet
0.0.1-SNAPSHOT
```
Gradle:
```kotlin
implementation("dev.themeinerlp:dartpoet:0.0.1-SNAPSHOT")
```
