Generate a Flutter app with Firebase Analytics and screen tracking

firebase_analytics is the module of the SMF CLI that records events and screen views with Firebase Analytics. Choose it with -m in a terminal, here with the start screen home:

dart pub global activate smf_flutter_cli
smf create my_app -m home,firebase_analytics

It depends on firebase_core, which sets up Firebase, and the screen needs a router, so smf create adds both:

Adding firebase_core: a dependency of firebase_analytics.
Adding flutter_core: the only provider of the app entry role, which every app needs.
Adding go_router: the only provider of the router role, which home requires.

The module adds firebase_analytics to the pubspec.yaml of the app, and lib/core/analytics/firebase_analytics_service.dart with the service on FirebaseAnalytics.instance. The analytics role adds lib/core/analytics/analytics_service.dart with the AnalyticsService interface, with logEvent, logSignIn and logSignUp among its methods, and createAnalyticsService().

With a router, the module gives it logFirebaseScreenView, a listener of the screen that the user sees. The router of the app calls it whenever that screen changes, tab switches included:

final List<void Function(String? route, String location)> _screenListeners = [
  logFirebaseScreenView,
];

The listener logs a screen_view event named after the full name of the route, such as home.home, and leaves out the error screen of the router. Without a router, the app records only the events it logs itself.

The documentation has more on the firebase_analytics module and on Firebase in SMF.
