Chewie dependency (Provider dependency) needs updated

[FCView]

Which packages are you using?

stream_chat_flutter

On what platforms did you experience the issue?

iOS, Android

What version are you using?

stream_chat_flutter 3.3.0

What happened?

Compatibility issue with other packages and stream_chat_flutter with following message when running "flutter pub get":

Because stream_chat_flutter >=2.0.0-nullsafety.5 depends on chewie ^1.2.0 which depends on provider ^5.0.0, stream_chat_flutter >=2.0.0-nullsafety.5 requires provider ^5.0.0.
So, because fcView depends on both provider ^6.0.0 and stream_chat_flutter ^3.3.0, version solving failed.
pub get failed (1; So, because fcView depends on both provider ^6.0.0 and stream_chat_flutter ^3.3.0, version solving failed.)

It appears that this dependency was updated in chewie about a month ago (see pull request here), but they haven't issued a new pub.dev release.

I am able to roll back provider in my own dependencies, but if I do, then I am unable to update stream_chat_flutter beyond 3.1.0 due to other conflicts that require this provider dependency to be resolved in stream_chat_flutter/chewie.

So, I am submitting this issue in case chewie is no longer issuing pub.dev releases.

Steps to reproduce

while using stream_chat_flutter >=2.0.0-nullsafety.5, add following dependency to pubspec.yaml:

provider: ^6.0.0

run "flutter pub get"

I think this a possible solution at the moment
There isn't much more we can do as of now

if you're interested in this, you can follow this issue fluttercommunity/chewie#580

[AndreHaueisen]

On Github, chewie is using provider 6.0.1 already.
One suggestion is for you guys to change the dependency to

  chewie:
    git:
      url: https://github.com/brianegan/chewie

[imtoori]

It's not possible to use a git dependency when publishing a package, so we have to wait for them to publish a new release :/
