Image Res

A command-line tool which automates a task of grouping image files into appropriate folders based on their resolution indicated in the file name. Refer to https://flutter.dev/docs/development/ui/assets-and-images#loading-images for further information regarding how Flutter manages resolution-appropriate images. To put it another way, when you copy and paste your image assets in your Flutter project and run this plugin. It'll look into all images' filename and automatically move them to appropriate-resolution folders.

Now supports null-safety.

For example, if you place images in the asset folder as shown below:

assets/
+-- images/
|   +-- icons/
|   |   +-- search.png
|   |   +-- [email protected]
|   |   +-- [email protected]
|   +-- logo.png
|   +-- [email protected]
|   +-- [email protected]

After running this plugin (with a configuration file in the project's root directory), the images whose filename includes a resolution indicator will be moved as follows:

assets/
+-- images/
|   +-- 2.0x/
|   |   +-- logo.png
|   +-- 3.0x/
|   |   +-- logo.png
|   +-- icons/
|   |   +-- 2.0x/
|   |   |   +-- search.png
|   |   +-- 3.0x/
|   |   |   +-- search.png
|   |   +-- search.png
|   +-- logo.png

Getting Started

1. Install the image_res plugin by adding it in pubspec.yaml under dev_dependencies section and run flutter packages get

   dev_dependencies: 
       image_res: ^0.3.0

2. Create a new configuration file called image_res.yaml in the project's root directory

   # The organizer recursively looks into all files in the `asset_folder_path`. (relative to the project's root)
   asset_folder_path: assets/images/
   
   # The organizer only arranges files with their extension listed in the `file_extensions`.
   file_extensions:
       - .jpg
       - .png
   
   # The organizer uses `resolution_indicator` to extract a resolution's part from the filename.
   # The `resolution_indicator` must conform to the following pattern:
   #   '[start_token]{N}[end_token]' where
   #       - [start_token]: A token that indicates a starting point of the resolution's part.
   #       - [end_token]: A token that indicates an ending point of the resolution's part.
   #
   # Valid `resolution_indicator`s along with example filenames that they can detect are shown below.
   #   '@{N}x': [email protected], [email protected], @2.0xlogo.png
   #   '--{N}#': logo--2#.png, logo--2.0#.png, --2.0#logo.png
   resolution_indicator: '@{N}x'
   
   # If `allow_overwrite` is true when there is the same filename already existing in a target folder, the organizer will replace it.
   allow_overwrite: false
   

3. Run the plugin in the project's root directory. See Available CLI Commands

   flutter packages pub run image_res:main <command>

Note that this plugin can be installed globally by flutter packages pub global activate image_res. Instead of typing a long command shown above, you can run it by just imgres.

If you encounter an issue indicating dart: command not found, please install Dart separately first and try running again.

Available CLI Commands

Commands	Description
[blank]	Run this plugin once
run	Run this plugin once
watch	Run this plugin and watch for changes

Usage

• If the plugin was installed globally, run it by:

  imgres <command>

• If the plugin was installed locally in a Flutter project, run it by:

  flutter packages pub run image_res:main <command>
