Props

CopyWith #
The code generator for copyWith and copyWithNull methods generation supports deep copy and field ignoring.
Usage #

Annotate a class with the @copyWith annotation
Add a part file - part 'your_file_name.g.dart'
Run the build_runner.

Methods copyWith, and copyWithNull will be generated.
part 'address.g.dart';

@copyWith
class Address {
final String? street;
final int? home;
const Address({this.street, this.home});
}
copied to clipboard
If you want to disable the copyWithNull method generation, pass "copyWithNull = false" to the CopyWith annotation.
@CopyWith(copyWithNull: false)
class Address {
final String? street;
final int? home;
const Address({this.street, this.home});
}
copied to clipboard
copyWith and copyWithNull difference #
The copyWith method rejects null.
@copyWith
class Payment {
final int id;
final String? description;
const Payment({required this.id, this.description});
}

const payment = Payment(id: 4, description: 'test',);

print(payment.copyWith(description: null)); // Payment(id:4, description: test)
copied to clipboard
The copyWithNull method allows a copy with a null value.
@copyWith
class Payment {
final int id;
final String? description;
const Payment({required this.id, this.description});
}

const payment = Payment(id: 4, description: 'test',);

print(payment.copyWithNull(description: null)); // Payment(id:4, description: null)
copied to clipboard
Deep copy #
With deep copy support, you can call copyWith and copyWithNull methods of objects that a class contains and get a new instance of a class with an updated object.
A class and objects that a class contains must be annotated with the @copyWith annotation.
@copyWith
class Payment {
final int id;
final String? description;
final Customer? customer;
const Payment({required this.id, this.customer, this.description});
}

@copyWith
class Customer {
final int id;
final String name;
final String surname;
final String? patronymic;
const Customer({
required this.id,
required this.name,
required this.surname,
this.patronymic,
});
}

const payment = Payment(
id: 4,
customer: Customer(
id: 1,
name: 'John',
surname: 'Dou',
),
);

print(payment.copyWith.customer!(name: 'Bob')); // Payment(id: 4, customer: Customer(id: 1,name: 'Bob',surname: 'Dou'))

Ignore field #
If you want a class field to be excluded from copyWith and copyWithNull methods generation, you need to annotate this field with the @copyWithExclude annotation.
In this case, it will be impossible to change this field with these methods.
@copyWith
class Payment {
@copyWithExclude
final int id;
final String? description;
final Customer? customer;
const Payment({required this.id, this.customer, this.description});
}
copied to clipboard
Props #
The code generator generates equatable props.
Usage #

Annotate a class with the @props annotation
Add a part file - part 'your_file_name.g.dart'
Override the props getter to return the _${your class name}Props(this);
Run the build_runner.

Generated props will contain all final class fields.
part 'address.g.dart';

@props
class Address extends Equatable {
final String? street;
final int? home;
const Address({this.street, this.home});
}
@override
List<Object?> get props => _$AddressProps(this);
}
copied to clipboard
Super class props #
If your class extends from another class that uses Equatable, you need to add props from a superclass.
You need to pass superclass props to the superProps parameter.
@props
class First extends Equatable {
final String data;
First(this.data);

@override
List<Object?> get props => _$FirstProps(this);
}

@props
class Second extends First {
final String second;
Second(this.second, String data) : super(data);

@override
List<Object?> get props => _$SecondProps(this, superProps: super.props);
}
copied to clipboard
Ignore field #
If you want a class field to be excluded from props generation, you need to annotate this field with the @propsExclude annotation.
In this case, props will not contain this field.
@props
class Address extends Equatable {
@propsExclude
final String? street;
final int? home;
const Address({this.street, this.home});
}
@override
List<Object?> get props => _$AddressProps(this);
}
