Clone this repo

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/rokwire/illinois-app.git

Make sure app flutter plugin persists

Rokwire app flutter plugin is used by the Illinois app. It should be located in the plugin subdirectory of the application's root project directory. If it does not exist you need to clone it manually.

cd illinois-app.git
git clone https://github.com/rokwire/app-flutter-plugin.git plugin

Make sure libs repo persists

Rokwire app libs directory is used by the Illinois app for private external libraries. It should be located in the libs subdirectory of the application's root project directory. If it does not exist you need to clone it manually.

cd illinois-app
git clone https://github.com/rokwire/illinois-app-libs.git libs

font_awesome_flutter plugin:

If font_awesome_flutter pro repo is not available then use the regular font_awesome_flutter plugin. Comment the lines in pubspec.yaml:

# font_awesome_flutter: '>= 4.7.0' # comment if published plugin is used

...
# dependency_overrides:
#  font_awesome_flutter:
#    path: plugin/plugins/font_awesome_flutter

For more details, please see app-flutter-plugin's README.md file.

Supply the following private configuration files:

• .travis.yml

Obsolete, not used after version 2.0 inclusive.

• secrets.tar.enc

Obsolete, not used after version 2.0 inclusive.

• assets/config.keys.json (for versions after 3.0 inclusive)

JSON data with the following format:

{
	"key":"...",
	"iv":"..."
}

key and iv fields contain strings that are base64 encoded randomly generated 16-bytes AES128 key and IV. These keys are used for decryption of assets/configs.json.enc from the application assets as well as for the decryption of secretKeys enctypted string in app config.

• assets/configs.json.enc

1. JSON data with the following format:

{
  "production": {
    "config_url": "https://api.rokwire.illinois.edu/app/configs",
    "api_key": "XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
  },
  "dev": {
    "config_url": "https://api-dev.rokwire.illinois.edu/app/configs",
    "api_key": "XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
  },
  "test": {
    "config_url": "https://api-test.rokwire.illinois.edu/app/configs",
    "api_key": "XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
  }
}

2. For versions prior to 3.0:
   • Generate random 16-bytes AES128 key.
   • AES encrypt the JSON string, CBC mode, PKCS7 padding, using the AES.
   • Create a data blob that contains the AES key at the beginning followed by the encrypted data.
   • Get a base64 encoded string of the data blob and save it as assets/configs.json.enc.

Alternatively, you can use AESCrypt.encode from /lib/utils/Crypt.dart to generate content of assets/configs.json.enc.

3. For versions after 3.0 inclusive:
   • AES encrypt the JSON string, CBC mode, PKCS7 padding, using the key and IV from assets/config.keys.json.
   • Get a base64 encoded string of the encryption result and save it as assets/configs.json.enc.
