feat: Allow Creating Flavors for an existing Flutter App

rivella50 opened this issue · comments

Description
I would like to be able to add flavors after i have created a Flutter app, i.e. that i'm independent of having to create a new Flutter app.
Not just once i had the situation that i started a Flutter mobile app where it was clear only later that different flavors would be necessary (or the customer decided it later and told me to integrate them).

Expected Behavior
As an addition to #680 there should be at least one additional subcommand (e.g. 'flavors') which performs the same steps as in 'create' but only regarding the creation/integration of flavors.

Hi @rivella50 👋 Thanks for the ticket on this. Currently none of the commands in very_good_cli work as a modification to an existing codebase. The focus for the tool is really around getting something started with a good base to work from. We have investigated ways to do these kinds of modifications in the past but with codebases looking so different project to project we haven't found a fully automated way to make it succeed in way that we think is acceptable. Given that we are continuing the focus on making sure this is the best tool for starting a project rather than modifying it.

Given that this won't be given a priority I'm closing this out as a "won't fix".

Hi Tom,

ok, that's understandable. Thanks for your explanation.
