A command-line tool for developing and deploying web applications with Dart.
The latest release of webdev requires Dart SDK 2.3 or later.
This corresponds to Flutter SDK 1.5 or later.
To use webdev with a package, make sure you have entries in pubspec.yaml
similar to:
...
dev_dependencies:
build_runner: ^1.6.2
build_web_compilers: ^2.0.0
...build_web_compilers ^1.2.0 is supported, but with some limited
functionality.
webdev is not meant to be used as a dependency. Instead, it should be
"activated".
$ pub global activate webdev
# or
$ flutter pub global activate webdevLearn more about activating and using packages here.
webdev provides two commands: serve and build.
Run a local web development server and a file system watcher that rebuilds on
changes.
Usage: webdev serve [arguments] [<directory>[:<port>]]...
--auto Automatically performs an action after each
build:
restart: Reload modules and re-invoke main
(loses current state)
refresh: Performs a full page refresh.
[restart, refresh]
--[no-]debug Enable the launching of DevTools (Alt + D /
Option + D). This also enables
--launch-in-chrome.
--[no-]debug-extension Enable the backend for the Dart Debug
Extension.
--[no-]injected-client Whether or not to inject the client.js script
in web apps. This is required for all
debugging related features, but may interact
poorly with proxy servers or other
environments.
(defaults to on)
Advanced:
--chrome-debug-port Specify which port the Chrome debugger is
listening on. If used with launch-in-chrome
Chrome will be started with the debugger
listening on this port.
--hostname Specify the hostname to serve on.
(defaults to "localhost")
--[no-]launch-in-chrome Automatically launches your application in
Chrome with the debug port open. Use
chrome-debug-port to specify a specific port
to attach to an already running chrome
instance instead.
--log-requests Enables logging for each request to the
server.
--tls-cert-chain The file location to a TLS Certificate to
create an HTTPs server.
Must be used with tls-cert-key.
--tls-cert-key The file location to a TLS Key to create an
HTTPs server.
Must be used with tls-cert-chain.
Common:
-h, --help Print this usage information.
-o, --output A directory to write the result of a build to.
Or a mapping from a top-level directory in the
package to the directory to write a filtered
build output to. For example "web:deploy".
A value of "NONE" indicates that no "--output"
value should be passed to `build_runner`.
(defaults to "NONE")
-r, --[no-]release Build with release mode defaults for builders.
--[no-]build-web-compilers If a dependency on `build_web_compilers` is
required to run.
(defaults to on)
-v, --verbose Enables verbose logging.
Run "webdev help" to see global options.
Run builders to build a package.
