Helpis CLI

This CLI provides various commands to help with Dart/Flutter development.

Commands

helpis

The helpis command provides an interface for the other commands. Running helpis will display usage information for the available commands.

create

The create command creates a new Dart project with a predefined structure. Some of the options include:

• -n or --name: The name of the project. This option is mandatory.
• -D or --description: The project's description.
• -a or --author: The name of the code owner.

For example, to create a project named MyProject, run:

helpis create -n MyProject -a user1 -D "My first Dart package."

createStore

The createStore command creates a caching service using SharedPreferences. It has the following options:

• -n or --name: The name of the project. Default is App. Used in field naming/prefixing.
• -u or --unedited: Use this flag to use the app's name unedited.
• -p or --part: Adds a part of directive.
• -t or --target: The path to generate the dart file. Default is lib/src/service/cache .
• -i or --imports: Additional imports.
• -k or --keys: Cache keys and optional default values. Format is key1-default1,key2,key3-default3.

For example, to create a StorageApp with keys isDarkMode and locale-en_us and an import of package:flutter/material.dart, run:

helpis createStore -i package:flutter/material.dart -k isDarkMode,locale-en_us -n StorageApp

colorgen

The colorgen command creates aliases and theming features for FlexColorScheme colors from an XML asset file. See the command description for details on the XML format.

For example, with an assets/colors.xml file, run:

helpis colorgen -t assets/colors.xml

This will generate a lib/src/gen/theme/colors.helpis.dart file with the color aliases.
