Full context https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/148004 TL;DR 1. Because `package:macros` depends on `package:_macros` via [a Dart SDK dependency](https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/blob/main/pkg/macros/pubspec.yaml#L13); and 2. `package:macros` exactly pins `package:_macros`; and 3. Each new version of `package:macros` will increment its exact pin of `package:_macros` ([comment](https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/148004#issuecomment-2103099893)); and 4. The [flutter/flutter](https://github.com/flutter/flutter) repository exactly pins the Dart SDK (via its exact pin on the [flutter/engine](https://github.com/flutter/engine) repository Therefore, the [flutter/flutter](https://github.com/flutter/flutter) repository effectively pins both `package:macros` and `package:_macros` already (as in, there exists only a single version of each that pub will successfully be able to solve within the context of a particular Flutter SDK). Therefore, it is safe for [flutter/flutter](https://github.com/flutter/flutter) repository to *not* pin `package:macros`, which will allow engine -> framework rolls that contain a new Dart SDK that contains a new `package:_macros` version to land automatically, provided all tests pass.
Token Defaults Generator
Script that generates component theme data defaults based on token data.
Usage
Run this program from the root of the git repository:
dart dev/tools/gen_defaults/bin/gen_defaults.dart [-v]
This updates generated/used_tokens.csv
and the various component theme files.
Templates
There is a template file for every component that needs defaults from
the token database. These templates are implemented as subclasses of
TokenTemplate
. This base class provides some utilities and a structure
for adding a new block of generated code to the bottom of a given file.
Templates need to override the generate
method to provide the generated
code block as a string.
See lib/fab_template.dart
for an example that generates defaults for the
Floating Action Button.
Tokens
Tokens are stored in JSON files in data/
, and are sourced from
an internal Google database.
template.dart
should provide nearly all useful token resolvers
(e.g. color
, shape
, etc.). For special cases in which one shouldn't
be defined, use getToken
to get the raw token value. The script, through
the various revolvers and getToken
, validates tokens, keeps track of
which tokens are used, and generates generated/used_tokens.csv
.
