Initialize the config file
cp lib/.env.dart.example lib/.env.dart
-
Support running the code unsigned on Android
cp android/app/build.gradle.dev android/app/build.gradle
-
Run the app
flutter run

The application was created using the Flutter Redux Starter.
The architecture is based off these two projects:
A High-level overview of the project structure:
lib/ # Root Package
|
├─ data/ # For data handling
│ ├─ mock/ # sample used for testing
│ ├─ models/ # Objects representing data
│ ├─ repositories/ # Source of data
|
├─ redux/ # manages app state
│ ├─ component/ # app building block
│ ├─ actions # methods to update app state
| ├─ middleware # run in response to actions, execute before reducer
| ├─ reducer # intercepts actions, responsible for updating the state
| ├─ selectors # read data from the state, queries against your 'state database'
| ├─ state # immutable object that lives at the top of the widget hierarchy
|
├─ ui/ # app views
│ ├─ component/ # views for different components
│ ├─ view/ # generel view for component
│ ├─ edit/ # change values on the views fields
|
├─ utils/ # Utility classes
The ui and redux folders contain components that are paired together. Put simply you will find an 'auth' folder in both the ui and redux folders.

- Architectural review
- Additional thoughts
- Run
flutter packages pub run build_runner build --delete-conflicting-outputs
to regenerate the model files. It will also remove the old generated files so conflicts are avoided..
- Run
flutter drive --target=test_driver/all_it.dart
to run the tests
- Run
cp android/app/build.gradle.prod android/app/build.gradle
to support running the code signed - Run
cp android/key.properties.example android/key.properties
to create the keys file - Run
keytool -genkey -v -keystore key.jks -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 10000 -alias invoiceninja
to generate a key to be able to sign the android application. - Update
android/key.properties
according to the parameters you entered in previous command when you generated the key - Open a new Firebase project from your console. Firebase is used for authentication.
- Inside the project go to Authentication and enable at least one method.
- After go to add a new Android application. For the package name add
com.invoiceninja.flutter
- Press "Register App" button.
- Download "google-services.json" and put it in
android/app
directory.
