flutter-plugin-generator

Goal

Scaffolds and configures Flutter plugin packages, handling standard method channels, FFI integrations, and federated plugin architectures. It configures platform-specific native code environments, implements Android v2 embedding lifecycle interfaces, and establishes platform interface packages.

Decision Logic

Use the following decision tree to determine the plugin architecture and template:

1. Does the plugin require C/C++ native code via dart:ffi?
   • Yes: Use --template=plugin_ffi.
     • Note: FFI plugins support bundling native code and method channel registration, but not method channels themselves.
   • No: Proceed to step 2.
2. Does the plugin require BOTH dart:ffi and Method Channels?
   • Yes: Use --template=plugin (Non-FFI). You must configure FFI manually within the standard plugin structure.
   • No: Proceed to step 3.
3. Will the plugin be developed by multiple teams or require highly decoupled platform implementations?
   • Yes: Implement a Package-Separated Federated Plugin (App-facing package, Platform Interface package, Platform Implementation packages).
   • No: Implement a standard monolithic plugin.
