Flutter Flavorizr Extended #

TLDR; #

Differences from the Original flutter_flavorizr: #

• No Overwriting of Android signingConfig: The signingConfig section in Android is no longer overwritten.
• Compatibility with Existing Projects: Running the original flutter_flavorizr on an existing project could cause errors due to file references and base structure dependencies. This has been addressed.
• No Overwriting of Custom Dart Files: After running flutter pub run flutter_flavorizr_extended for the first time, we avoid overwriting .dart files that you may have manually modified. The following processors are skipped in subsequent runs:

// 'flutter:flavors',
// 'flutter:app',
// 'flutter:pages',
// 'flutter:main',
// 'flutter:targets',

Installation #

• Add the following in your buildspec.yaml

dev_dependencies:
  flutter_flavorizr_extended: ^0.0.5

Getting Started with working Example Configuration: #

Step 0: Ensure the Icon Exists: #

Make sure your app icon is correctly placed in the specified path.

Step 1: Android Signing Configuration: #

• 1: Generate a Signing Key #

  Run this command to create a keystore for signing your app:

   keytool -genkey -V -keystore template_app.jks -storetype JKS -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 10000 -alias template_app_key ```
  

• 2: Organize Your Keystore #

  • Create a folder called keystores and place the generated template_app.jks file inside it.

• 3: Create key.properties #

  Create a file named key.properties with the following content. Never push this file to public repositories!

  development.keyAlias=template_app_key
  development.keyPassword=<Your password>
  development.storeFile=../keystores/template_app.jks
  development.storePassword=<Your password>
    
  qa.keyAlias=template_app_key
  qa.keyPassword=<Your password>
  qa.storeFile=../keystores/template_app.jks
  qa.storePassword=<Your password>
    
  uat.keyAlias=template_app_key
  uat.keyPassword=<Your password>
  uat.storeFile=../keystores/template_app.jks
  uat.storePassword=<Your password>
    
  prod.keyAlias=template_app_key
  prod.keyPassword=<Your password>
  prod.storeFile=../keystores/template_app.jks
  prod.storePassword=<Your password>
  

• 4:Update app/build.gradle #

  Add the following signingConfigs section to your app/build.gradle:

    signingConfigs {
        debug {
  
            if (System.getenv()["CI"]) { // CI=true is exported by Codemagic
                storeFile file(System.getenv()["CM_KEYSTORE_PATH"])
                storePassword System.getenv()["CM_KEYSTORE_PASSWORD"]
                keyAlias System.getenv()["CM_KEY_ALIAS"]
                keyPassword System.getenv()["CM_KEY_PASSWORD"]
            } else {
                keyAlias keyProperties['development.keyAlias']
                keyPassword keyProperties['development.keyPassword']
                storeFile keyProperties['development.storeFile'] ? file(keyProperties['development.storeFile']) : null
                storePassword keyProperties['development.storePassword']
            }
  
        }
        qa {
            if (System.getenv()["CI"]) { // CI=true is exported by Codemagic
                storeFile file(System.getenv()["CM_KEYSTORE_PATH"])
                storePassword System.getenv()["CM_KEYSTORE_PASSWORD"]
                keyAlias System.getenv()["CM_KEY_ALIAS"]
                keyPassword System.getenv()["CM_KEY_PASSWORD"]
            } else {
                keyAlias keyProperties['qa.keyAlias']
                keyPassword keyProperties['qa.keyPassword']
                storeFile keyProperties['qa.storeFile'] ? file(keyProperties['qa.storeFile']) : null
                storePassword keyProperties['qa.storePassword']
            }
  
        }
        uat {
            if (System.getenv()["CI"]) { // CI=true is exported by Codemagic
                storeFile file(System.getenv()["CM_KEYSTORE_PATH"])
                storePassword System.getenv()["CM_KEYSTORE_PASSWORD"]
                keyAlias System.getenv()["CM_KEY_ALIAS"]
                keyPassword System.getenv()["CM_KEY_PASSWORD"]
            } else {
                keyAlias keyProperties['uat.keyAlias']
                keyPassword keyProperties['uat.keyPassword']
                storeFile keyProperties['uat.storeFile'] ? file(keyProperties['uat.storeFile']) : null
                storePassword keyProperties['uat.storePassword']
            }
  
        }
        release {
            if (System.getenv()["CI"]) { // CI=true is exported by Codemagic
                storeFile file(System.getenv()["CM_KEYSTORE_PATH"])
                storePassword System.getenv()["CM_KEYSTORE_PASSWORD"]
                keyAlias System.getenv()["CM_KEY_ALIAS"]
                keyPassword System.getenv()["CM_KEY_PASSWORD"]
            } else {
                keyAlias keyProperties['prod.keyAlias']
                keyPassword keyProperties['prod.keyPassword']
                storeFile keyProperties['prod.storeFile'] ? file(keyProperties['prod.storeFile']) : null
                storePassword keyProperties['prod.storePassword']
            }
  
        }
  

• 5: Configure pubspec.yaml #

  Add the following flavorizr section to your pubspec.yaml to define the flavors:

  name: flutter_template_app

            signingConfig: signingConfigs.uat
        ios:

          generateDummyAssets: true
          icon: "assets/images/icons/appicon.png"
  

Step 3: Enjoy! #

After setting this up, run flutter pub run flutter_flavorizr_extended to generate the flavor-specific files and enjoy hassle-free flavor management!
