avoid_setters_without_getters

Avoid setters without getters.

DON'T define a setter without a corresponding getter.

Defining a setter without defining a corresponding getter can lead to logical inconsistencies. Doing this could allow you to set a property to some value, but then upon observing the property's value, it could easily be different.

BAD:

class Bad {  int l, r; ​  set length(int newLength) {  r = l + newLength;  } } 

GOOD:

class Good {  int l, r; ​  int get length => r - l; ​  set length(int newLength) {  r = l + newLength;  } } 

To enable the avoid_setters_without_getters rule, add avoid_setters_without_getters under linter > rules in your analysis_options.yaml file:

linter:  rules:  - avoid_setters_without_getters 

If you're instead using the YAML map syntax to configure linter rules, add avoid_setters_without_getters: true under linter > rules:

linter:  rules:  avoid_setters_without_getters: true
