Github URL invalid? about reflectable.dart

[sigurdm]

Seems like the github URL specified on the pub page is invalid (https://www.github.com/dart- lang/reflectable/reflectable). It gives me a 404 right now. Also the pubspec.yaml file in reflectable refers to this URL.

True - pub does not support specifying a path in a git dependency. We were not aware of this restriction when we wrote the documentation, and never got around changing it. Sorry about that.
The only way to depend on a non-published version that we are aware of is to make a local git checkout, and have a path-dependency on that:

dependencies:
  reflectable:
    path: ../reflectable/reflectable

This is of course suboptimal, and we want to restructure the repo, so the reflectable package is at the root.

When I try running pub get with reflectable: "^0.1.4" in my pubspec.yaml, I get this error:

Package reflectable has no versions that match >=0.1.4 <0.2.0 derived from:

myproject depends on version ^0.1.4
I'm using version 1.12.1. These issues are maybe related?

This is confusing - having a "^0.1.4" dependency should just work
(though we just published 0.1.5!).

I made an empty directory with a pubspec.yaml with the following:

name: testproject
dependencies:
  reflectable: ^0.1.4

And then ran pub get:

That is with pub 1.12.1.

Could you try to do something similar?

Thanks

Sorry I misunderstood the first part of your bug-report.
I thought you were trying to use something like:

dependencies:
  reflectable:
    git: https://www.github.com/dart-lang/reflectable/reflectable

That is a problem we also have been fighting with and want to solve.

The homepage link in the pubspec.yaml (that is used on the pub.dartlang.org page) should not give problems in pub get, but it should be fixed of course. A fix is in: https://codereview.chromium.org/1334243002/

The other problem of:

Package reflectable has no versions that match >=0.1.4 <0.2.0 derived from:

myproject depends on version ^0.1.4

Seems unrelated - this should definitely work, could you try doing it in an empty package?

Package reflectable has no versions that match >=0.1.4 <0.2.0 derived from:

myproject depends on version ^0.1.4

These pub messages are often misleading (there is an older open issue for improving this).
Try pub upgrade -v, it might provide additional information about where pub fails resolving the dependencies.

Considering that the link on pub.dartlang.org has been corrected and we haven't received further info on the 'Package reflectable has no versions that match' problem, I'll close this issue. Please create a new issue if similar problems still exist.

Package reflectable has no versions that match >=0.4.0 <0.5.0 derived from: -myproject depends on version ^0.4.0

Pub 1.11.3
Dart VM version 1.11.3 (windows x64)

[zoechi]

@brown2rl this is just a misleading error message of pub get. reflectable 0.4.0 requires Dart SDK >= 1.12.

[brown2rl]

@zoechi updated dart to latest version & all fixed!

Very good! ;-)
