Support for Dart/Flutter pub.dev package repo
-
I'm afraid it didn't make the roadmap for Q4. There's no documented API that we saw, and reverse engineering and then supporting the inevitable quirks takes a lot of effort -- and there still doesn't seem to be a market opportunity for us here I'm afraid (no search volume, etc.)...
This SO Question seems to indicate that using Git repositories is a popular way to reference packages...
-
It seems that api documentation on this format is available.

We would love to see this implemented in the Future, is there any Chance for this?

@proget-markus-koban_7308 over the past few years, a lot of the "chatter" I've seen on social/news over the past couple years seems to have trended negatively towards Dart/Flutter as a platform/technology - and I haven't seen growth. It seems pretty niche still?
And then just last week or so, I saw headlines about Google laying off the Dart/Flutter team.
What do you think of the future of the platform?

@apxltd When it comes to to Mobile and Web development, Dart/Flutter is pretty massive (see here and here) and has is not going to fade.
When it comes to the current layoffs @ Google (discussed for example here), people from the Flutter team itself are actually pretty clear that Flutter is come to stay (" You're betting on Flutter and Dart. So am I. So is Google.").Of course, for small(-ish) teams, using MonoRepos (e.g. w/ melos) or packages via Git is perfectly fine. For larger enterprise use, custom Dart/Flutter repositories are essential. Internally, we're currently exploring the existing possibilities for custom Pub repos (the same company as @proget-markus-koban_7308), but they are not really satisfactory from what I heard. Integration into ProGet would be a game changer here. :)

@fabian-droege_8705 thanks for the insight! I know basically nothing about the platform, so good to hear from someone familiar w/ the ecosystem.
We'll take another look in the coming weeks, and I'll post an update once we have a better idea of roadmap. Just skimming the thread here, it seems that there is a package/archive format, an API, and documentation for private repositories - so that's a huge positive
-
@apxltd Awesome, thanks a ton! We're really looking forward to hearing news on the matter.

Hello,
We are seeking support for the Dart/Flutter as well. It would be amazing if y'all supported this. Your competitors sure don't!

Hi everyone,
Quick sneak peak of the work-in-progress:
Cheers,

Good news everyone, ProGet 2024.11 now has support for pub (Dart/Flutter) feeds! I'm going to lock this topic now, but if you run into any issues please start a new topic
