Customizable with options to configure the installer capabilities. ## Guide ### 1. Download Inno Setup - **Option 1: Using winget (Recommended)** ```ps winget install -e --id JRSoftware.InnoSetup ``` - **Option 2: Using chocolatey** ```ps choco install innosetup ``` - **Option 3: From official website** Download Inno Setup from official website. Then install it in your machine. _Note: This package is tested on Inno Setup version `6.2.2`._ ### 2. Install `inno_bundle` package into your project ```ps dart pub add dev:inno_bundle ``` ### 3. Generate App ID To generate a random id run: ```ps dart run inno_bundle:id ``` Or, if you want your app id based upon a namespace, that is also possible: ```ps dart run inno_bundle:id --ns "www.example.com" ``` The output id is going to be something similar to this: > f887d5f0-4690-1e07-8efc-d16ea7711bfb Copy & Paste the output to your `pubspec.yaml` as shown in the next step. ### 4. Set up the Configuration Add your configuration to your `pubspec.yaml`. example: ```yaml inno_bundle: id: f887d5f0-4690-1e07-8efc-d16ea7711bfb # <-- Put your own generated id here publisher: Your Name # Optional, but recommended. name: Demo App # Also optional, but recommended. ``` ### 5. Build the Installer After setting up the configuration, all that is left to do is run the package. ```ps flutter pub get dart run inno_bundle:build --release ``` _Note: `--release` flag is required if you want to build for `release` mode, see below for other options._ ## Using GitHub Workflow? To automate building the installer with GitHub actions, check out [the demo](https://github.com/hahouari/flutter_inno_workflows_demo). You can copy the [build.yaml](https://github.com/hahouari/flutter_inno_workflows_demo/blob/dev/.github/workflows/build.yaml) file to your project and make sure to update [the push branch](https://github.com/hahouari/flutter_inno_workflows_demo/blob/fb49da23996161acc80f0e9f4c169a01908a29a7/.github/workflows/build.yaml#L5). It will build the installer and push it to [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/hahouari/flutter_inno_workflows_demo/releases) with correct versioning. ## Attributes Full list of attributes which you can use into your configuration. All attributes should be under `inno_bundle` in `pubspec.yaml`. - `id`: `Required` A valid GUID that serves as an AppId. - `name`: App display name.

Otherwise, an empty string. - `url`: Defaults to `homepage` from `pubspec.yaml`. Otherwise, an empty string. - `support_url`: Defaults to `url`. - `updates_url`: Defaults to `url`. - `installer_icon`: A path relative to the project that points to an ico image. Defaults to installer icon provided with the demo.¹ - `languages`: List of installer's display languages. Defaults to all available languages.² - `admin`: (`true` or `false`) Defaults to `true`. - `true`: Require elevated privileges during installation. App will install globally on the end user machine. - `false`: Don't require elevated privileges during installation.

This helps end-users avoid issues of missing DLL files when running app after install.
