I'm on nixOS and trying to start a flutter project. When I hit flutter run
the following error occures.
* What went wrong:
Error resolving plugin [id: 'dev.flutter.flutter-gradle-plugin', version: '1.0.0']
> A problem occurred configuring project ':gradle'.
> Could not create service of type OutputFilesRepository using ExecutionGradleServices.createOutputFilesRepository().
> Failed to create parent directory '/nix/store/lbi43bsi63zvp7wjgswsp1vjrg4pv9b2-flutter-3.13.4-unwrapped/packages/flutter_tools/gradle/.gradle' when creating directory '/nix/store/lbi43bsi63zvp7wjgswsp1vjrg4pv9b2-flutter-3.13.4-unwrapped/packages/flutter_tools/gradle/.gradle/buildOutputCleanup'
Had anyone this issue and know how to resolve it? I understand that everything in /nix/store
is read-only, but this should somehow work.
I was encountering similar Gradle errors. In the end, I managed to successfully build the .apk with Flutter on NixOS using this nix develop
and this flake
