Paddinger

Paddinger is a Flutter package to generate Padding widgets.

Given a set of constants like:

@paddinger
const double PADDING_NORMAL = 8;

A set of Padding classes will be generated like:

NormalAllPadding
NormalLeftPadding
NormalTopPadding
NormalRightPadding
NormalBottomPadding
NormalHorizontalPadding
NormalVerticalPadding
NormalLeftTopPadding
NormalLeftBottomPadding
NormalRightTopPadding
NormalRightBottomPadding

So instead of writing:

Padding(
  padding: const EdgeInsets.all(PADDING_NORMAL),
  child: Text(
    'MyText',
  ),
)

you can just write:

NormalAllPadding(
  child: Text(
    'MyText',
  ),
)

How to use it

• Add the following as dependencies:

dependencies:
  paddinger_annotations: [latestVersionHere]

dev_dependencies:
  paddinger: [latestVersionHere]

• Create a file where you will add all your PADDING_ constants, the file could be named paddings.dart.
• Add your favourite material or cupertino import like:

// ignore: unused_import
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

• Add the part directive:

part 'paddings.g.dart';

• Run the code generation with flutter pub run build_runner build --delete-conflicting-outputs

Have a look at the example app to see it in practice.
