dart_custom_lint analysis.setContextRoots failed - RequestErrorCode.PLUGIN_ERROR ProcessException: / No such file or directory / Command: flutter pub get

Describe the bug

The lint errors do not appear at all in my Android Studio Dart Analysis tab nor in the source code highlighted, and custom_lint.log contains the following error (it does not make any sense to me - flutter pub get exceeds sucessfully):

The request analysis.setContextRoots failed with the following error:
RequestErrorCode.PLUGIN_ERROR

If I run dart run custom_lint, I see the lint issues in the console output (as expected).

I attach the Android Studio Analysis Server Diagnostics report as well: dart_analyzer_diagnostics_report.json

analysis_options.yaml:

include: package:analysis/lint2.yaml

analyzer:
  plugins:
    - custom_lint
  exclude:
    - eg1
    - eg2

custom_lint:
  rules:
    - asd1: false
    - asd2: false

Resolve attemptions

I tried to upgraded-downgraded the Flutter SDK, analyzer. I also tried to run flutter clean, flutter pub cache clean. But wasn't able to make it work, only if I downgrade custom_lint to 0.6.6 or 0.6.5.

Expected behavior

I should see the lint errors in Dart Analysis tab in Android Studio, and I also should see the errors in the source code highlighted.

Additional notes

It perfectly works with Visual Studio Code IDE as expected.

We are getting this exact same issue as well.

Seems like tempDir might be invalid?

 /// Run "pub get" in the client project.
  Future<void> runPubGet(Directory tempDir) async {
    final command = isUsingFlutter ? 'flutter' : 'dart';

    final result = await runProcess(
      command,
      const ['pub', 'get'],
      stdoutEncoding: utf8,
      stderrEncoding: utf8,
      workingDirectory: tempDir.path,
      runInShell: platformIsWindows,
    );
    if (result.exitCode != 0) {
      throw Exception(
        'Failed to run "pub get" in the client project:\n'
        '${result.stdout}\n'
        '${result.stderr}',
      );
    }
  }

flutter pub get works when run in command line.

This is the tempDir it is trying to use that does not exist: '/var/folders/dm/xz10cgy114g5plf8c02h19mr0000gq/T/custom_lint_clientn65kUQ'

@rrousselGit I pulled down the latest from git and pointed my project at it. FWIW the analyzer plugin started working when I specified the full path to my flutter command:

final command = isUsingFlutter ? '/Users/Eric.Schlichting/Library/Flutter/bin/flutter' : 'dart';

Seems like something change with the resolution of that command. Maybe the path isn't setup properly in the process anymore.

If I downgrade and pin to 0.6.5 or 0.6.6 it works again. Can you test it? custom_lint: 0.6.6

@woteska that works for us as well. Thank you!

Downgrading worked for me too. I'm using fvm to manage flutter versions - I wonder if its related.

I'm experiencing this issue on Android Studio + macOS environment. Here's something I found out.

macOS sets the PATH environment value to /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin for new processes launched by Finder or Launchpad and so on. Android Studio launched through JetBrains Toolbox seems to have the same value. And the Dart Analysis Server launched by Android Studio is also the same and it can be checked by accessing the diagnostics web page. As far as I know, according to the installation guide of Flutter, in most cases the flutter binary is not in /usr/bin but somewhere in the home directory like ~/flutter/bin. So custom_lint is unable to find flutter.

As a workaround I tried to symlink e.g. sudo ln -s ~/flutter/bin/flutter /usr/bin/flutter but failed because of System Integrity Protection. So I think macOS users are unable to use custom_lint for now.

I think there are two approaches to solve this problem.

Making the flutter or dart binary path configurable.
Launching the process with runInShell: true to read the shell profile and set the PATH variable properly.
- However, since the current implementation of Process.run executes /bin/sh, macOS users who only use .zprofile wouldn't be able to solve the problem with this approach.

Or maybe the Dart Analysis Server could be changed to pass the dart binary path to plugins.

Is there any update on this issue?

Is there any update on this issue?

Have the same question. Acutally I do not find any custom_lint lib versions working with the latest 3.27.x FlutterSDK and analyzer lib on macOS for Android Studio. Plugin is broken. Unfortunately we are forced to remove custom_lint, because we need to migrate to newer Flutter...
