Tool for packaging Dart programs into standalone executables

dartbin

A tool for packaging Dart programs into standalone executables.

Prerequisites

• Go SDK installed

Manual steps

1. Generate snapshot of your app (dart --snapshot=file.snapshot file.dart)
2. Run the source code generator (dart bin/main.dart file.snapshot)
3. Change to the go_src directory (cd go_src)
4. Compile the Go package (env GOPATH=/full/path/to/go_src go build -v)
5. Grab the go_src/go_src file – that's your executable – and rename it to your liking.

For other architectures (like Windows when you're running this on Mac, or vice versa), you'll need to:

• provide a matching executable (dart bin/main.dart --dart /full/path/to/dart.exe file.snapshot)
• run the Go compilation with the correct GOOS and GOARCH variables (env GOPATH=/full/path/to/go_src GOOS=windows GOARCH=386 go build -v)
