name: Lint and Test PRs

on:
  pull_request:
    branches:
      - main

jobs:
  lint:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
      steps:
        - uses: actions/checkout@v4

Build web project artifact on each `main` push

Load project's dependencies and build web app into a .zip file, stored as an artifact for the given commit.

name: Build web app

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - main

jobs:
  lint:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
      steps:
        - uses: actions/checkout@v4
        - uses: monterail/flutter-action@v2
        - run: flutter pub get
        - run: flutter build web
        - uses: actions/upload-artifact@v4
          with:
            name: web-app
            path: build/web

Precache web and Android build tools

By default Flutter will fetch the tools necessary to build specific platforms after flutter build command is ran. The process can be sped up with precaching specific platforms at Flutter installation stage.

name: Setup Flutter for web and Android builds

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - main

jobs:
  lint:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
      steps:
        - uses: actions/checkout@v4
        - uses: monterail/flutter-action@v2
          with:
            precache: "--web --android"
        - run: flutter pub get
        - run: flutter build web
        - uses: actions/upload-artifact@v4
          with:
            name: web-app
            path: build/web
