Description:

flutter appcenter bundle

AppCenter Plugin for flutter #

#
This plugin currently bundles appcenter analytics, crashes and distribute.
Getting Started #
To get started, go to AppCenter and register your apps.
For detailed AppCenter API reference, go to https://aka.ms/appcenterdocs
Build #
Appcenter distribute has an issue with pulishing apps to google play.
To workaround
use flutter build --flavor googlePlay to build for googlePlay and flutter build --flavor appCenter for appCenter.
flutter build apk command will build both under build/app/outputs/flutter-apk by adding below section to android/app/build.gradle
android {
...

flavorDimensions "distribute"
productFlavors {
appCenter {
dimension "distribute"
}

googlePlay {
dimension "distribute"
}
}

// This is likely needed, see https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/58247
lintOptions {
disable 'InvalidPackage'
checkReleaseBuilds false
}
}

Already having flavor settings and want to merge? Checkout example project. Please note that flavor dimensions are orthogonal. You may just want to reuse distribute flavor for the best build performance. Check out this article for details.
android {
flavorDimensions "dummy", "distribute"
productFlavors {
dummyFoo {
dimension "dummy"
}
dummyBar {
dimension "dummy"
}
appCenter {
dimension "distribute"
}

googlePlay {
dimension "distribute"
}
}
}

Try example project first when troubleshooting your local build issue.

Troubleshooting #


iOS: [!] CocoaPods could not find compatible versions for pod "AppCenter"
Manually delete podfile.lock and rebuild, this is a common issue when upgrading iOS native dependencies.


Android build issue
Always check if example project builds first
If it does not build, please report an issue
If it builds, check the gradle setup
Checkpoints:


Gradle version in gradle-wrapper.properties


Kotlin version in build.gradle


compileSdkVersion in build.gradle


com.android.tools.build:gradle version in build.gradle


lintOptions (in example) See issue
Execution failed for task ':app:lintVitalAppCenterRelease'


build.gradle script (in example)


settings.gradle (in example)
