Hello and welcome everynyan to our time management application for Android. (Even though it is in Flutter we are to poor for an IOS developer account)

Getting Started

This repository serves as the initial setup for a Flutter application. If this is your first time using Flutter, consider exploring the following resources to get up to speed:

• Flutter Getting Started Guide - Step-by-step instructions to test drive Flutter.
• Flutter Online Documentation - Comprehensive guides, samples, and a full API reference for mobile development.

Setup Instructions

Setting up on Arch Linux

Install Required Packages

Install the necessary packages from the official Arch repositories:

dart gradle clang cmake ninja pkgconf libbsd

Also, install the following from the Arch User Repository (AUR):

flutter google-chrome android-sdk android-sdk-build-tools android-platform android-sdk-platform-tools android-sdk-cmdline-tools-latest android-emulator

Environment Configuration

For Chrome support, add the following variable to your environment:

export CHROME_EXECUTABLE="$(which google-chrome-stable)"

Permissions Setup

Create a new user group with write permissions:

groupadd android-sdk
gpasswd -a <user> android-sdk
setfacl -R -m g:android-sdk:rwx /opt/android-sdk
setfacl -d -m g:android-sdk:rwX /opt/android-sdk
newgrp android-sdk

Alternatively, set the Android directory to have '777' permissions with:

chmod -R 777 /opt/android

License Agreement

Accept all Android licenses:

yes | flutter doctor --android-licenses

SDK Management

To install a system image using sdkmanager:

sdkmanager --list
sdkmanager --install "system-images;android-35;google_apis;x86_64"
sdkmanager --list_installed

To create an Android Virtual Device (AVD) using avdmanager:

avdmanager create avd -n myavd -k "system-images;android-35;google_apis;x86_64"
avdmanager list avd

Start the Emulator

To start the emulator:

emulator -avd myavd

Or, to start without loading snapshots:

emulator @myavd -no-snapshot-load

If the emulator cannot find the avd.ini file, set the ANDROID_AVD_HOME variable:

export ANDROID_AVD_HOME="/path/to/.android/avd"

Setup on Other Distributions and Operating Systems

For non-Arch Linux users, please refer to the Flutter online documentation for setup instructions done for your operating system.

Running the Application

To run your Flutter application, select your build device and execute:

flutter run

Monitor the application

After running the application a custom link to the flutter DevTools is provided. If followed you can for example access the logs of the application.

Logging

Please log with the log_service methods. Those are automatically displayed in the DevTools.
