This folder doesn't look like a Flutter project. Aborting...

Hi, I tried to run rinf template in an existing flutter project but got This folder doesn't look like a Flutter project. Aborting... exception. If i run the command in a brand new project, it is working fine. Any idea what the problem might be?

Hi @dikatok , thanks for asking here :)

This happens when there's no lib/main.dart file in your folder. Could you check if the file exists? If it does, please let me know.

That explains lol, I am using multi-env template from VGV thus having main_dev.dart, main_prod.dart, etc. instead of a single main.dart. Thanks

Would you consider other criteria for the flutter project validation method? Is looking for lib/main.dart the only way?

One of the good ways seems to be checking the presence of pubspec.yaml. I wasn't aware that you can change Flutter's entry point with flutter run -t, but now we should also consider that situation as well.

Thanks for your opinion, and I will publish a new version today with the fix that you've mentioned :)

Yeah, checking for pubspec.yaml seems to be more universal. Thanks, closing.

Fixed in version 6.5.0 :)
