📱 Serchservice User Mobile Application

Welcome to the Serchservice User mobile application! This Flutter-based project is designed for users to onboard themselves onto the Serchservice user platform, enabling seamless management and integration with Serchservice's user mobile applications.

🚀 Project Overview

This mobile application serves the User category of Serchservice, allowing users to register, manage, and onboard their accounts in the Serchservice ecosystem. The platform offers a convenient, streamlined interface, enabling users to connect directly with service providers, improving operational efficiency.

The project is built using Flutter 🐦 and relies on a variety of packages and plugins, including our custom-made connectify_flutter package developed by the Serchservice team.

• Custom Packages: Integration with Serchservice's proprietary connectify_flutter package for seamless connectivity.
• CI/CD Integration: Automated builds using CI/CD for efficient deployment.

📦 Dependencies & Packages

This project relies on several essential Flutter packages and plugins to provide a rich, feature-complete experience:

• flutter
• get
• firebase_core
• connectify_flutter (Custom Serchservice package)
• logger_flutter (Custom Serchservice package)
• secure_flutter (Custom Serchservice package)

Special Configuration for connectify_flutter

To access the connectify_flutter package, you need to set up authentication via a .netrc file. This file allows secure access to the private package hosted on GitHub.

Create a .netrc file in your home directory with the following content:

machine github.com
login your_username
password your_personal_access_token

Replace your_username and your_personal_access_token with your actual GitHub credentials and personal access token.

For more information on GitHub authentication tokens, refer to GitHub Docs.

3. Set up your .netrc file as described above.

Versioning

For every update or release, make sure to update the version in the pubspec.yaml file. CI/CD workflows rely on version updates for automated build and deployment.

🔧 CI/CD Pipeline

This project uses CI/CD pipelines to automate the process of building and releasing the application. The CI/CD setup ensures that the app is always in sync and deploys the latest app bundle versions.

KeyStore for CI/CD

Run this to get the .jks file:

base64 -w 0 <path_to_your_keystore_file> > keystore.base64

You can do this on mac:

base64 /path/upload-keystore.jks > keystore.base64

Key CI/CD Features:

• Automated app bundle generation.
• Version control checks: make sure the pubspec.yaml version is updated for every new release.

This script will build the Flutter web files, switch to the web branch (or create it if it doesn't exist), deploy the web files, and then return to the main branch.
