Mobx.dart: generate .g.dart files in seperate folder

[canewsin]

consider to generated files to be in folder like gen/ or something like that because for 2 or 3 files it looks ok but if we had 30-40 files it becomes clumsy in a single folder

You can configure this yourself through the build.yaml file.

See the package build-config on pub

should i have to modify your lib's build.yaml i didn't any options for to output to another folder

@rrousselGit
give me some suggestion to how to do it

I use workspace setting on vscode to hide the *.g.dart files.

"files.exclude": {
"*/.g.dart": true
},

Hi,

I'm using json_serializables code generation and it's generated files have same names with mobx generated files. Unfortunately json_serializable output cannot be configured :(

How to change file names or file directory at least of generated files of mobx? @rrousselGit mentioned build.yaml, but I cannot find a way to do.

Thanks,

@ozum I was thinking the build_runner merged the outputs from mobx_codegen and json_serializable. Isn't that happening ?

@rrousselGit might know this better than me though.

It does but won't rename classes to avoid name conflicts.

Unfortunately, there's not much you can do besides finding a way to remove the name conflict. But it can usually be done by moving some classes to another file.

@pavanpodila, yes build_runner merged the outputs, but as @rrousselGit stated, conflicts happen. Even generated into different files, there are other problems too. I opened another case asking how to use both together not to hijack this case with details of my particular problem.

Nonetheless, it would be good to know if renaming or separate folder is possible?
