This allows more flexibility as we can configure the redirect overtime, compared to the GitHub hosted site which we have less control over. It could even redirect to the old linter site in the meantime if desired.

This package provides a library that performs static analysis
|
|
of Dart code. It is useful for tool integration and embedding.
|
|
|
|
End-users should use the [dart analyze][] command-line tool
|
|
to analyze their Dart code.
|
|
|
|
Integrators that want to add Dart support to their editor
|
|
should use the _Dart Analysis Server_.
|
|
The [Analysis Server API Specification][serverapi] is available.
|
|
If you are adding Dart support to an editor or IDE, please let us know
|
|
by emailing our [list][].
|
|
|
|
## Configuring the analyzer
|
|
|
|
Both `dart analyze` and Dart Analysis Server can be configured with an
|
|
`analysis_options.yaml` file (using an `.analysis_options` file is deprecated).
|
|
This YAML file can control which files and paths are analyzed,
|
|
which lints are applied, and more.
|
|
|
|
If you are embedding the analyzer library in your project, you are responsible
|
|
for finding the analysis options file, parsing it, and configuring the analyzer.
|
|
|
|
The analysis options file should live at the root of your project (for example,
|
|
next to your `pubspec.yaml`). Different embedders of analyzer, such as
|
|
`dart analyze` or Dart Analysis Server, may choose to find the file in various
|
|
different ways. Consult their documentation to learn more.
|
|
|
|
Here is an example file that instructs the analyzer to ignore two files:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
analyzer:
|
|
exclude:
|
|
- test/_data/p4/lib/lib1.dart
|
|
- test/_data/p5/p5.dart
|
|
- test/_data/bad*.dart
|
|
- test/_brokendata/**
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that you can use globs, as defined by the [glob package][glob].
|
|
|
|
Here is an example file that enables two lint rules:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
linter:
|
|
rules:
|
|
- camel_case_types
|
|
- empty_constructor_bodies
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Check out all the available [Dart lint rules][lintrules].
|
|
|
|
You can combine the `analyzer` section and the `linter` section into a single
|
|
configuration. Here is an example:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
analyzer:
|
|
exclude:
|
|
- test/_data/p4/lib/lib1.dart
|
|
linter:
|
|
rules:
|
|
- camel_case_types
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For more information, see the docs for
|
|
[customizing static analysis][custom_analysis].
|
|
|
|
## Who uses this library?
|
|
|
|
Many tools embed this library, such as:
|
|
|
|
* [dart format] - a formatter for Dart code
|
|
* [dart doc] - a documentation generator for Dart code
|
|
* [Dart Analysis Server][analysis_server] - a stateful server that supports IDEs and editors
|
|
|
|
## Support
|
|
|
|
Post issues and feature requests at https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues.
|
|
These will be triaged according to the [analyzer triage priorities][triage].
|
|
|
|
Questions and discussions are welcome at the
|
|
[Dart Analyzer Discussion Group][list].

|
## Background
|
|
|
|
The APIs in this package were originally machine generated by a translator and were
|
|
based on an earlier Java implementation. Several of the API's still look like their Java
|
|
predecessors rather than clean Dart APIs.
|
|
|
|
In addition, there is currently no clean distinction between public and internal
|
|
APIs. We plan to address this issue but doing so will, unfortunately, require a
|
|
large number of breaking changes. We will try to minimize the pain this causes for
|
|
our clients, but some pain is inevitable.
