$ pub add --help
Add dependencies to `pubspec.yaml`.

Invoking `dart pub add foo bar` will add `foo` and `bar` to `pubspec.yaml`
with a default constraint derived from latest compatible version.

Add to dev_dependencies by prefixing with "dev:".

Add packages with specific constraints or other sources by giving a descriptor
after a colon.

For example:
  * Add a hosted dependency at newest compatible stable version:
    `$topLevelProgram pub add foo`
  * Add a hosted dev dependency at newest compatible stable version:
    `$topLevelProgram pub add dev:foo`
  * Add a hosted dependency with the given constraint
    `$topLevelProgram pub add foo:^1.2.3`
  * Add multiple dependencies:
    `$topLevelProgram pub add foo dev:bar`
  * Add a path dependency:
    `$topLevelProgram pub add 'foo{"path":"../foo"}'`
  * Add a hosted dependency:
    `$topLevelProgram pub add 'foo{"hosted":"my-pub.dev"}'`
  * Add an sdk dependency:
    `$topLevelProgram pub add 'foo{"sdk":"flutter"}'`
  * Add a git dependency:
    `$topLevelProgram pub add 'foo{"git":"https://github.com/foo/foo"}'`
  * Add a git dependency with a path and ref specified:
    `$topLevelProgram pub add /
      'foo{"git":{"url":"../foo.git","ref":"branch","path":"subdir"}}'`

Usage: pub add [options] [dev:]<package>[:descriptor] [[dev:]<package>[:descriptor]
       ...]

    --[no-]offline       Use cached packages instead of accessing the network.
-n, --dry-run            Report what dependencies would change but don't change
                         any.
    --[no-]precompile    Build executables in immediate dependencies.
-C, --directory=<dir>    Run this in the directory <dir>.
