local_config 0.2.3

Make changes to your app's default behavior and appearance by changing parameter values — just like Firebase Remote Config, but locally.

Make changes to your app's default behavior and appearance by changing parameter values — just like Firebase Remote Config, but locally. It’s designed for teams that need flexibility to override parameters, test feature flags, and simulate Remote Config behavior directly on their devices.

---

Features

The main goal is to provide the ability to manage configs locally for any purpose during development, testing, and even staging workflows.

• Familiar API inspired by Firebase Remote Config (onConfigUpdated, getBool, getString, etc)
• Built-in widget, also inspired by Firebase Remote Config, for viewing/editing parameter values
• Persistent parameter value overrides using shared_preferences or flutter_secure_storage

Getting Started

Add dependency

dependencies:
  local_config: ^0.2.3

Initialize with your parameters

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:local_config/local_config.dart';

void main() async {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();

  await LocalConfig.instance.initialize(
    params: {
      'social_login_enabled': false,
      'timeout_ms': 8000,
      'animation_speed': 1.25,
      'api_base_url': 'https://api.myapp.com/v1',
      "checkout": {
        "payment_methods": {
          "allowed": ["credit_card", "pix", "boleto"],
          "default": "credit_card",
        },
        "installments": {
          "enabled": false,
          "rules": [
            {"max_installments": 3, "min_order_value": 0},
            {"max_installments": 6, "min_order_value": 100},
            {"max_installments": 10, "min_order_value": 300},
          ],
        },
      },
    },
  );

  runApp(const ExampleApp());
}

Or with the FirebaseRemoteConfig parameters

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:firebase_remote_config/firebase_remote_config.dart';
import 'package:local_config/local_config.dart';

void main() async {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();

  await FirebaseRemoteConfig.instance.fetchAndActivate();

  await LocalConfig.instance.initialize(
    params: FirebaseRemoteConfig.instance.getAll().map(
      (key, value) => MapEntry(key, value.asString()),
    ),
  );

  runApp(const ExampleApp());
}

⚠️ Warning: When using RemoteConfigValue.asString() from the firebase_remote_config package, the returned value may not always match the expected logical type. For example, boolean values may sometimes come as numeric strings ("0" or "1") instead of "true" or "false".

Navigate to built-in entrypoint widget

IconButton(
  onPressed: () {
    Navigator.of(context).push(
      MaterialPageRoute(
        builder: (_) => LocalConfigEntrypoint(),
      ),
    );
  },
  tooltip: 'Local Config',
  icon: const Icon(Icons.settings),
)

Get parameter values

final socialLoginEnabled = LocalConfig.instance.getBool('social_login_enabled');
final timeoutMs = LocalConfig.instance.getInt('timeout_ms');
final animatinoSpeed = LocalConfig.instance.getDouble('animation_speed');
final apiBaseUrl = LocalConfig.instance.getString('api_base_url');
final checkout = LocalConfig.instance.getString('checkout');

Or listen for updates (if your implementation supports it)

LocalConfig.instance.onConfigUpdated.listen((configs) {
  print('Configs updated: $configs');
});

For a full demo, check the example folder.
