Web Application
Guide for web app configuration
Ridy maintains support for Rider Application's web version. This is useful for having the same rider application experience that is offered on Android & iOS to web users as well. The benefit here would be greater portability. Clients don't have to install the application from stores. They will go to the address and submit their request with the same UI as Android & iOS users whether it is from their Mobile or Desktop or any device with support for modern web browsers.

Mandatory configuration for the web app to run is to have the firebase configured for phone authentication login service. To do this create one app of web type on the firebase project you have created before. Copy the
firebaseConfig variable that Firebase creates and paste it into the place for the variable in the apps/rider-app/web/index.html. See the below images:
You can find the title of the web page in the
index.html file under the meta tag named apple-mobile-web-app-title and the title tag:<meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-title" content="Ridy">
<link rel="apple-touch-icon" href="icons/Icon-192.png">
<!-- Favicon -->
<link rel="icon" type="image/png" href="favicon.png"/>
<title>Ridy</title>
<link rel="manifest" href="manifest.json">
favicon and Mobile icons are also here. Please note the format of the favicon is png. You can replace them with your assets.
Open a terminal in the
apps/rider-app folder and run the below command:flutter build web --release
Once the above command succeeds you will have the compiled website for the rider application located in the
build/web folder. You can serve this file on your server in any manner you see fit using the web server of your choice.Keep in mind the CORS policy too so your web app could connect to the backend correctly. If you have set the serverUrl in
config.dart to the IP of your server this app should be served through the same server & IP address but on another port. If you want to have a domain assigned or run with HTTPS which is usually a must for production setups you will need to set up and configure Nginx and proxy both the rider app and its backend through the same domain.Last modified 7mo ago
