pacifio/json2dart

A CLI tool to help generate dart classes from json returned from API

Json 2 Dart Command line utility

Important note

There is already a package called json2dart so this package will be called json2dartc !

This project was made using javiercbk's json_to_dart package ! This CLI was made to directly convert JSON stuctures into Dart classes . I personally don't like build runners and json serializers so I made this for my workflow . Feel free to open issues and submit PRs .

How to use

Install this via pub

pub global activate json2dartc

Example

json2dartc -u https://reqres.in/api/users -m get -e data -n Example

Null safety

To turn on null safe code generation , add the flag --null-safe , Example :

json2dartc -u https://reqres.in/api/users -m get -n Example --null-safe

Options

-u, --api        API Endpoint required to grab the json from
-e, --entry      Entry point for json data structure , e.g data.data will get the nested data array/object from API response
-n, --name       Name of your data class
                 (defaults to "AutoGenerated")
-h, --headers    Headers for your API endpoint
-m, --method     Method for http request , defaults to GET
                 (defaults to "GET")

Option	required	default	example	note
-u	true	required field	https://reqres.in/api/users
-e	false	''	data	it's used for special access in json data , e.g data.data will access nested data object within data object
-n	false	'AutoGenerated'	Example
-h	false	{}	access-token=01234,foo=bar
-m	false	GET	GET/POST

Upcoming plans

• Null safety support
• Tool itself written with null safety
• Private memmbers option
• Option to load json from a file
