request: Let flutterfire_cli be installable as dev dependency

[cedvdb]

Is there an existing feature request for this?

• I have searched the existing issues.

Command

dart run flutterfire || dart run flutterfire_cli

Description

currently the filename in /bin does not match the package name. When installing flutterfire_cli as a dev dependency and then trying to run it here is the output:

$ dart run flutterfire_cli
Could not find `bin/flutterfire_cli.dart` in package `flutterfire_cli`.

Reasoning

I want to lock the version.

Additional context and comments

No response

Similar as #223

Technically, you can add it as a dev dependency and run dart run flutterfire_cli:flutterfire_dev.

However, the cli project uses an old version of the http package, which has dependency conflicts with most some of my packages.

Not stale

[russellwheatley]

Hey @cedvdb - I'm in favour of making this a dev dependency, but not sure if that would work when we call flutterfire from Xcode build phaes. e.g. https://github.com/invertase/flutterfire_cli/blob/main/packages/flutterfire_cli/lib/src/firebase/firebase_apple_writes.dart#L376

Happy to take a look at a PR if you were interested in trying to get this over the line

@russellwheatley the ios script should be updated to have dart run flutterfire .... instead of flutterfire ... indeed. Beside that, what changes would be required ?

[russellwheatley]

@cedvdb - Of the top of my head, I think it is the two Apple scripts that we add to build phases that need to be updated: https://github.com/invertase/flutterfire_cli/blob/main/packages/flutterfire_cli/lib/src/firebase/firebase_apple_writes.dart#L11-L14

[frederikstonge]

I'm curious if any of these are used in the cli. Maybe extracting these in a separate package that is installed as dev dependency could be a good idea and it could benefit other stuff.

Why extracting those ?

The commands in the ios script needs to be rewritten to use the dev dependency with dart run flutterfire instead of fluttefire

[russellwheatley]

Not in favour of extracting those script separate package.
