Flint Dart 🔥 #

Flint Dart is a minimal, expressive, and extensible server-side framework built with Dart. Inspired by the simplicity of Express.js and Laravel, Flint provides an elegant developer experience for building RESTful APIs and backend services with Dart.

Developed and maintained by Eulogia Technologies.

✨ Features #

• 🧱 Simple and intuitive routing
• 🛡️ Middleware support
• 🔐 Built-in JWT authentication
• 🔒 Secure password hashing
• ♻️ Hot reload support for rapid development
• 🧪 Modular structure for scalable projects
• 💡 Clean API design inspired by Flutter's widget philosophy

🚀 Getting Started #

1. Install as a Global Package #

If you want to quickly create and run apps without adding Flint as a dependency, install it globally:

dart pub global activate flint_dart

flint create new_app   # Create a new Flint project
flint run              # Run the project

2. Add as a Project Dependency #

If you prefer Flint to be part of your project’s dependencies:

dart pub add flint_dart

dart run 

import 'package:flint_dart/flint_dart.dart';

void main() {
  final app = Flint();

  app.get('/', (req, res) async {
    res.send('Welcome to Flint Dart!');
  });

  app.listen(3000);
}

3. Run with hot reload #

app.get('/hello', (req, res) async {
  res.json({'message': 'Hello, world!'});
});

Middleware #

import 'package:flint_dart/flint_dart.dart';

class AuthMiddleware extends Middleware {
  @override
  Handler handle(Handler next) {
    return (Request req, Response res) async {
      final token = req.bearerToken;
      if (token == null || token != "expected_token") {
        res.status(401).send("Unauthorized");
        return;
      }
      await next(req, res);
    };
  }

  app.put('/:id', AuthMiddleware().handle(controller.update));

JWT Authentication #

final token = JwtUtil.generateToken({'userId': 123});
final payload = JwtUtil.verifyToken(token);

Password Hashing #

final hash = Hashing.hashPassword('mySecret');
final isValid = Hashing.verifyPassword('mySecret', hash);
