如何修改飞镖/颤振 package？

Question

I want to use a dart package. Currently its under dependencies in pubspec.yaml . And it works fine. However I need to make a few minor changes to the package. Do I need to import the whole package into my project and make changes there or is there an easier way?

Answer 1

You should clone the package from it's own repository and then just import it using the path instead. For example, if you have let's say, a package called foo: ^1.0.0 and want to modify it:

1. Go to it's GitHub project and clone it to somewhere in your machine;
2. Change the path in your pubspec.yaml to:

foo:
 path: [your package path]

Have in mind that if you have the project stored in VC, the reference won't work and thus you should always point to a remote dependency unless it's shipped with your app as well (eg. path: ../dependency ).
