[tool] Improve using project files in build targets #166211

loic-sharma · 2025-03-30T00:26:13Z

The Flutter tool's build system executes targets that take inputs and produces outputs. Previously, targets would hardcode paths if they needed to use Flutter project files as inputs/outputs. For example:

class FooTarget extends Target {
  @override
  List<Source> get inputs => <Source>[
    Source.pattern('{PROJECT_DIR}/foo/bar'),
  ];
}

This is problematic as the FlutterProject is the source of truth for where a Flutter project's files are located:

If we change a project file's location, we need to update FlutterProject as well as any hardcoded target inputs/outputs.
Project files' location can be dynamic. For example, a Flutter app puts iOS files in the ios/ directory, but a Flutter module puts iOS files in the .ios/ directory. Targets need to duplicate FlutterProject's logic to determine the project file's location.

As a result, hardcoding project file paths in targets can be error-prone.

This introduces a new Source factory that lets you use the FlutterProject to create the source:

class FooTarget extends Target {
  @override
  List<Source> get inputs => <Source>[
    Source.fromProject((FlutterProject project) => project.fooFile),
  ];
}

  }
+
+  void visitProjectSource(ProjectSourceBuilder builder, bool optional) {
+    final File source = builder(_project);


In the future, we could allow the builder to return Files or Directorys by changing its return type to FileSystemEntity. We don't have any scenarios that need this today, so I didn't implement this.

Awesome improvement!

@OverRide

The Flutter tool's build system executes targets that take inputs and produces outputs. Previously, targets would hardcode paths if they needed to use Flutter project files as inputs/outputs. For example: ```dart class FooTarget extends Target { @OverRide List<Source> get inputs => <Source>[ Source.pattern('{PROJECT_DIR}/foo/bar'), ]; } ``` This is problematic as the [`FlutterProject`](https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/05b5e79105441acb55e98a778ff7854cd191de8c/packages/flutter_tools/lib/src/project.dart#L89) is the source of truth for where a Flutter project's files are located: 1. If we change a project file's location, we need to update `FlutterProject` as well as any hardcoded target inputs/outputs. 2. Project files' location can be dynamic. For example, a Flutter app puts iOS files in the `ios/` directory, but a Flutter module puts iOS files in the `.ios/` directory. Targets need to duplicate `FlutterProject`'s logic to determine the project file's location. As a result, hardcoding project file paths in targets can be error-prone. This introduces a new `Source` factory that lets you use the `FlutterProject` to create the source: ```dart class FooTarget extends Target { @OverRide List<Source> get inputs => <Source>[ Source.fromProject((FlutterProject project) => project.fooFile), ]; } ``` Part of flutter#163874 Next pull request: flutter#165916 ## Pre-launch Checklist - [x] I read the [Contributor Guide] and followed the process outlined there for submitting PRs. - [x] I read the [Tree Hygiene] wiki page, which explains my responsibilities. - [x] I read and followed the [Flutter Style Guide], including [Features we expect every widget to implement]. - [x] I signed the [CLA]. - [x] I listed at least one issue that this PR fixes in the description above. - [x] I updated/added relevant documentation (doc comments with `///`). - [x] I added new tests to check the change I am making, or this PR is [test-exempt]. - [x] I followed the [breaking change policy] and added [Data Driven Fixes] where supported. - [x] All existing and new tests are passing.

@OverRide

The Flutter tool's build system executes targets that take inputs and produces outputs. Previously, targets would hardcode paths if they needed to use Flutter project files as inputs/outputs. For example: ```dart class FooTarget extends Target { @OverRide List<Source> get inputs => <Source>[ Source.pattern('{PROJECT_DIR}/foo/bar'), ]; } ``` This is problematic as the [`FlutterProject`](https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/05b5e79105441acb55e98a778ff7854cd191de8c/packages/flutter_tools/lib/src/project.dart#L89) is the source of truth for where a Flutter project's files are located: 1. If we change a project file's location, we need to update `FlutterProject` as well as any hardcoded target inputs/outputs. 2. Project files' location can be dynamic. For example, a Flutter app puts iOS files in the `ios/` directory, but a Flutter module puts iOS files in the `.ios/` directory. Targets need to duplicate `FlutterProject`'s logic to determine the project file's location. As a result, hardcoding project file paths in targets can be error-prone. This introduces a new `Source` factory that lets you use the `FlutterProject` to create the source: ```dart class FooTarget extends Target { @OverRide List<Source> get inputs => <Source>[ Source.fromProject((FlutterProject project) => project.fooFile), ]; } ``` Part of flutter#163874 Next pull request: flutter#165916 ## Pre-launch Checklist - [x] I read the [Contributor Guide] and followed the process outlined there for submitting PRs. - [x] I read the [Tree Hygiene] wiki page, which explains my responsibilities. - [x] I read and followed the [Flutter Style Guide], including [Features we expect every widget to implement]. - [x] I signed the [CLA]. - [x] I listed at least one issue that this PR fixes in the description above. - [x] I updated/added relevant documentation (doc comments with `///`). - [x] I added new tests to check the change I am making, or this PR is [test-exempt]. - [x] I followed the [breaking change policy] and added [Data Driven Fixes] where supported. - [x] All existing and new tests are passing.
