localhost (10.0.2.2) not working for Android emulators

[Shubham Singh]

According to nhost's documentation, we must pass localhost or localhost:1337 as the value for subdomain and a blank/empty string for region if we want to develop using Nhost CLI. This is shown below as well:

But the issue here is we cannot use localhost on Android emulators. If we try to do so, we get the following error:

E/flutter ( 5240): [ERROR:flutter/runtime/dart_vm_initializer.cc(41)] Unhandled Exception: Failed host lookup: '10.0.2.2.auth..nhost.run'

Observe here, the URL contains a double dot .. because of the blank region which makes the URL invalid as the library does not consider 10.0.2.2 as localhost.

In order to access the parent device's localhost, we must use http://10.0.2.2 in the URL instead of localhost.

Please consider making this change in the library to enable development on Android Emulators as well.

@mhadaily Could you look into this, please?

Can you not use serviceUrls directly for local development?

      serviceUrls: ServiceUrls(
        authUrl: '',
        storageUrl: '',
        functionsUrl: '',
        graphqlUrl: '',
      ),
    );```
