pubspec_manager

Description:

pubspec manager

pubspec_manager #
pubspec_manager allows you to read, modify and write pubspec.yaml files.
Why another pubspec.yaml manipulation file?
As a sometimes maintainer of the pubspec package and the creator of the fork
pubspec2, I've long been unhappy with the usability and maintainability of
the pubspec package.
There are also a number of other pubspec maintinance packages but none of them
meet all of my criteria. In particualar none of them are able to preserve
comments.
So the aim of pubspec_manager is to fix three problems

simplified API
fully type safe code base to ease maintenance
preservation of comments when modifying an existing pubspec.yaml
abiltity to modify every elment of a pubspec.yaml including comments.
retention of non pubspec specific content

Support #
The pubspec_manager package is supported by OnePub - the Dart private repository.
Register on OnePub for a free two user license - no credit card required.
Pubspec Manager gives you access to all of the pubspec attributes with the ability to add, modify and delete any ellement.
You can also get access to elements outside of the pubspec specification via the underlying Document view pubspec.document which provides line level access.
See also #
Developers often use the pub_semver package with Pubspec Manager as it will allow you to perform operations on the version such as 'next major version'.
The version object can take a String or you can call Version.setSemVersion or Version.getSemVersion to work directly with the pub_semver package.
Examples #
The following examples shows how to create a new pubspec.yaml from scratch.
import 'dart:io';

import 'package:path/path.dart';
import 'package:pubspec_manager/pubspec_manager.dart';


void create() {
// create a pubspec in memory
PubSpec(

version: '1.0.0-alpha.2',
description: 'An example',
environment: EnvironmentBuilder(sdk: '>3.0.0 <=4.0.0', flutter: '1.0.0'),
)
// modify name, version, description and environment to show how it's
// done but it makes no sense to do it here as the above ctor already
// set them.
..name.set('erica')
..version.set('1.0.1')
..description.set('A change of description') // desc
..environment.set(sdk: '>3.0.0 <=4.0.0', flutter: '1.0.0')

update a version #
Updating a pubspec version is a common task:
/// load the the pubspec.yaml from local dart project directory,
/// update the version and save it back.

void updateVersion() {

pubspec.version.set('1.2.1');
pubspec.save();

/// Replace the money dependency with the money2 dependency.

pubspec.save();

load and save pubspec to a specific file. #
/// Or load from a specific file and save to a different file
/// change the projects name and add a comment above the name.

..set('new_name')
..comments.append('This is the new name of the project');
