Provide a Flutter example

[GroovinChip]

Currently, the example directory is not a Flutter app. It would be good for a Flutter app to be there to
A) show a Flutter example for using this library as the README only shows a pure Dart example
B) improve pub.dev scoring

Thanks for submitting an issue! @robrbecker will take a look soon!

[robrbecker]

I totally agree!

[GroovinChip]

Any update on this?

Hello. I'm curious if you guys are still planning to address this issue.

[robrbecker]

@GroovinChip We'd still love a Flutter example if you're up for adding one :)

Hey @robrbecker , I would also be very interested in a Flutter example!

I am currently trieng to understand the integration tests as they seem to be the best reference to understand the library.

Or what would be the best way to learn how to use the library from some working examples that do include the full information?

e.g. the integration tests use some environment variables that are not visible so its hard to guess what has to be provided to get things started, currently my requests are failing and it might be my mobile internet connection here in Venezuela, haha but who knows, gotta check again tomorrow

I tried the following code:

var github = GitHub(auth: Authentication.withToken(ConfigReader.getGithubKey()));

var gitBlob = CreateGitBlob(merchant.getBmapDataJson(), "utf-8");

var blob = await github.git.createBlob(
  RepositorySlug.full("https://github.com/theRealBitcoinClub/flutter_coinector.git/test.json"),gitBlob);

I want to achieve two very simple use cases:

1. I want to upload an image to a repository that I have as base64
2. I want to add one line to an existing .json document

Optional use cases would be:

3. Create a branch
4. Create a PR

I can offer to write the Flutter examples with documentation once I have understood how I could achieve the steps 1. 2. then create a PR and with some more advice I might also be able to integrate 3. 4.

I have not seen any other Github Flutter library so it seems to me that it would make a lot of sense to invest a little bit of time into that challenge, I personally love GitHub as I use it for database and image hosting for many open source apps of which flutter_coinector is the most wanted one.

What do you think? If there is any chance we should get this done ASAP, otherwise I will keep trying tomorrow or have to look into different solutions as my tasks are time critical. Enjoy the holidays!

@GroovinChip Did you integrate the library into your project? Could you provide me with any code sample or give any advice related to my comment above?

[theRealBitcoinClub]

Hmm, checking the API I found a class called GitHubFile, https://pub.dev/documentation/github/latest/github/GitHubFile-class.html

And I found github.repositories.createFile which receives a fileName as an argument

So I guess my RepositorySlug would be "https://github.com/theRealBitcoinClub/flutter_coinector.git"

Am I getting closer to solve my issue number 1 ?
