[Flutter] Katana Shorten

Hello. My name is Masaru Hirose.

I made a simple package.

This package creates Duration, EdgeInsets, and SizedBox from int and double via extensions.

I’ve put together some instructions on how to use it, so if you’re interested, go ahead and give it a try!

katana_shorten | Flutter package

Flutter package to write Duration, EdgeInsets, etc. in short descriptions. Simple widgets are also provided.

Introduction

Duration and EdgeInsets are classes that are often used to implement Flutter.

Surprisingly, there are many characters to describe, and even though there is auto-completion, it takes a lot of time and effort to type the characters.

Therefore, I have created a package of extensions that can shorten them.

It can be easily written as follows

Copy

Padding(
  padding: 16.p, // EdgeInsets.all(16)
  child: Text("text")
);

Future.delayed(100.ms); // Duration(milliseconds: 100)

Installation

Import the following packages

Copy

flutter pub add katana_shorten

How to use

Duration

The following can be substituted.

Copy

100.ms // Duration(milliseconds: 100)
100.s  // Duration(seconds: 100)
100.m  // Duration(minutes: 100)
100.h  // Duration(hours: 100)
100.d  // Duration(days: 100)

EdgeInsets（Padding / Margin）

The following can be substituted.

Copy

100.p  // EdgeInsets.all(100)
100.px // EdgeInsets.symmetric(horizontal: 100)
100.py // EdgeInsets.symmetric(vertical: 100)
100.pt // EdgeInsets.only(top: 100)
100.pb // EdgeInsets.only(bottom: 100)
100.pl // EdgeInsets.only(left: 100)
100.pr // EdgeInsets.only(right: 100)

The following can be substituted.

Copy

100.sx // SizedBox(width: 100)
100.sy // SizedBox(height: 100)
