Dart - How does one dart project import code from another dart project without using pub?

Question

Suppose I have two dart projects

Project A contains code that uses web component to create bunch of UI widget (similar to https://github.com/kevmoo/widget.dart)

Project B contains my front end code that would reuse the UI widget I created in project A.

If I dont want to publish my project A to pub, is there anyway to link project B to project A without manually copying files from project A into B?

Thanks

Take a look at this section in the pub documentation: Path Dependencies:

http://pub.dartlang.org/doc/dependencies.html#path-packages

Suppose project_a had a library file called myprojecta.dart

dependencies:
  project_a:
    path: /Users/me/project_a   <-- root of project a

In your code, you would import project_a using

import 'package:project_a/myprojecta.dart'

Note - if you don't want to publish your project to pub, you can always use git as a dependency rather than path dependency - this lets other people in your team use your projects without relying upon your filesystem layout.
