Prerequisites

You'll need to set up the IDE and mobile device emulator on your local system and have access to a system running the Talawa API, which the mobile needs to access to operate properly.

  1. Development Environment: You'll need to have the following installed:
    1. Flutter SDK
    2. Android Studio
  2. API Environment: You will need to enter the URL of the API server in the Talawa app when it first starts up. The URL could be active on a system you control or in our test environment.
    1. Your API Server: Check the Talawa API repository for information on how to set up the API on your local machine or a machine under your legitimate control. There is a section in the README.md file that discusses installation.

(Optional) Google APIs: The app uses Google Maps API for venue selection. You will need to sign up for it if you want to test these features. Enter your API key in the

  • android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml file for android.
  • ios/Runner/AppDelegate.swift file for iOS.

Replace YOUR_KEY_HERE with your API key.

Remember to remove the key before committing changes and replace again with YOUR_KEY_HERE.

  • Go to Google Developers Console.
  • Create a new project that you want to enable Google Maps on.
  • Search credentials in the search bar and select Credentials in APIs & Services. Click on Create credentials and select API key. Copy the key and replace it as said before.
  • Search maps sdk for android and select the Google Maps SDK for Android in Marketplace. You can also search maps sdk for ios and select the Google Maps SDK for iOS in Marketplace for iOS devices.
  • Click Enable.

  2. Install packages. 
    $ flutter pub get
