Instead of manually updating dependencies in a pubspec.yaml
file, use the update-packages
CLI tool:
To update all dependencies:
flutter update-packages --force-upgrade
To pin a dependency:
Sometimes you need to prevent a dependency from being updated when you run flutter update-packages --force-upgrade
.
In that case, first pin the dependency in kManuallyPinnedDependencies
and a include a comment with a link to an issue to unpin the dependency.
You can then re-run flutter update-packages --force-upgrade
.
To update a single dependency for cherrypicks:
Sometimes you need to update a single dependency as a cherrypick to a release candidate branch.
In that case, you can run:
flutter update-packages --cherry-pick-package=[pub package name] --cherry-pick-version='[pub package version]'
