Flutter Web Deploy

This tool allows to deploy flutter web app via FTP with one click. At the moment the program works only from Windows.

Installiation

Compile a project using VS, Rider or dotnet publish OR download a compiled executable from releases.
Then put the tool (FlutterWebDeploy.exe) into your flutter project directory (also you can create another folder and put the program here, for example project_dir/deployment). After that you'll have two ways to use it (below).

Option 1: Config file

Just open (or create) file flutter_web_deploy.yaml (it should be placed inside the program directory). And set the required properties: ftp_login, ftp_password, ftp_host and remote_path.
Note: don't forget to add file flutter_web_deploy.yaml into .gitignore.

Option 2: Program arguments

The second variant is to set options in the program arguments. Here is the main arguments list:

  -l, --login       FTP connection login.

  -p, --pass        FTP connection password.

  -h, --host        FTP host started with 'ftp.'

  --port            FTP connection port (21 is default).

  -f, --fast        Upload only main project files (skip images and etc.)

Run FlutterWebDeploy.exe --help to see all possible arguments.

Deploy

After configuring you can run FlutterWebDeploy.exe manually or add it as a configuration into Android Studio.

1. Open Edit Configurations window, click add button, select Shell Script
   
2. Set path to FlutterWebDeploy.exe into Script path field and path to project into Working directory field
   
3. Optionally add program arguments (Script options field).
   
   Congratulations! Now you can publish your application with a one click.
