How to disable a linting rule inline in flutter

Question

Is there a way to disable a linting rule for a line in flutter?

I have a specific use case where I want to disable linting for two lines. I have a lot of business logic already written so I cannot change the code.

abstract class ReviewName {
  static final NEW = 'NEW';
  static final OLD = 'OLD';
}

The above code will have linting errors: Name non-constant identifiers using lowerCamelCase.dart(non_constant_identifier_names)

Is there any way I avoid the lint error for only the two lines?

Answer 1

General answer

To ignore a single line, you can add a comment above the line:

// ignore: non_constant_identifier_names
final NEW = 'NEW';

To ignore for the whole file, you can add a comment at the top of the file:

// ignore_for_file: non_constant_identifier_names

To ignore for the whole project, you can set the rule to false in your analysis_options.yaml file:

include: package:lints/recommended.yaml

linter:
  rules:
    non_constant_identifier_names: false

Answer 2

Use the // ignore: syntax, for example:

abstract class ReviewName {
  // ignore: non_constant_identifier_names
  static final NEW = 'NEW';

  // ignore: non_constant_identifier_names
  static final OLD = 'OLD';
}
