[device_info_plus]: According to package analysis, device_info_plus 8.1.0 is not Web compatible??

[Andrious]

What is your question?

I want my Dart package, fluttery framework, to be Web-compatible, but it appears device_info_plus is preventing this.

When I publish it to Pub.dev, the package analysis states it's not Web compatible.

However, it's device_info_plus itself that imports device_info_plus_linux which eventually imports dart:io.

dart:io is not Web compatible! (see Platform support).

That's beyond my control! Is it not?
And so my question is, how can I use device_info_plus and be Web-compatible at the same time?

I'm importing the plus plugin in the following file:
package:fluttery_framework/src/controller/device_info.dart

When the app starts up, the plugin is then called:

Possible Solution

I was looking through the source code:

Would introducing a conditional import on the 'linux' file as well as the 'Windows' file be helpful:?:

This will allow device_info_plus to be used and supported on all 6 platforms.

Hi @Andrious , I see you have also raised #1654 , with mostly the same information, I think its better if we keep the discussion focused in this issue. Also if you already have a proposed fix feel free to create a PR , which is way easier for maintainers to check.
