dartdoc does not understand sdk_ext

[eseidelGoogle]

sky uses the new sdk_ext feature of the analysis server to define dart:sky. Unfortunately dartdoc doesn't seem to understand this?

• create a pubspec.yaml:

name: docdemo
dependencies:
  sky: any

• create a lib/main.dart:

import 'dart:sky';

class Test {
    Color color;
}

• pub get
• dartdoc

Generating documentation for 'docdemo' into /src/docdemo/doc/api/

parsing lib/main.dart...
Parsed 1 file in 3.2 seconds.

[error] Target of URI does not exist: 'dart:sky' at lib/main.dart, line 1.
Generation failed: encountered 1 analysis error.

@eseidelGoogle, try running dartdoc with --url-mapping option

Thats how we handle it today:
https://github.com/domokit/sky_engine/blob/master/sky/tools/skydoc.py

But that should no longer be necessary with the recent analyzer changes is my understanding?

Looked at the sdk_ext support in analyzer, have to add code to dartdoc to use that.

Thanks for the report!

(I'm a bit surprised we don't just get this one for free, but we'll certainly add it.)

Looked at this a bit more, there is some logic to initialize package uris and the sdk extensions. This should be in analyzer package instead of analyzer_cli, so that dartdoc and other tools can make use of it. Will do that, and then dartdoc gets the sdk extensions for free.

Fixed with #805

Thanks for the report!
