pubspec.yaml has no lower-bound SDK constraint

Question

I was taking MDC101 flutter code lab. I cloned the starter project from the git repository as per the instructions but after clonning done, I executed flutter pub get and it gave me the following error.

pubspec.yaml has no lower-bound SDK constraint.
You should edit pubspec.yaml to contain an SDK constraint:
environment:
  sdk: '>=2.10.0 <3.0.0'

Just add environment: sdk: '>=2.10.0 <3.0.0' to top of dependencies : in pubspec.yaml – Abott

I have added environment: sdk: '>=2.10.0 <3.0.0' this line to bottom of pubspec.yaml and issue resolved – Disharmony

Answer 1

As per the error instructions I added the following in my pubspec.yaml

environment:
  sdk: '>=2.10.0 <3.0.0'

And then I executed flutter pub get and it's working fine now.

If you received this error even when your pubspec.yaml file contained the correct sdk line, be sure to check subfolders in your main folder. This was noted to happen while doing a flutter packages get from the font_awesome_flutter package. The reason was that even though the main pubspec.yaml contained the correct line, there was an offending example/pubspec.yaml. Add the lines to that file:

environment:
  sdk: ">=2.7.0 <3.0.0"

This is one of the problems. Should really be the accepted answer. – Saveall

In my case the problem was not related to "font_awesome_flutter" but was a folder "example" from "OneSignal-Flutter-SDK\example" which contained the offending pubspec.yaml. – Stephanstephana

Tip: There are two pubspec.yaml files inside a flutter project, one is in the" root "folder, the other is inside" example/ "folder. We have to add this line to both two files. – Stedman

where is the example/ folder? – News

Answer 3

As of Dart 2.12, omitting the SDK constraint is an error. When the pubspec has no SDK constraint, pub get fails with a message like the following:

pubspec.yaml has no lower-bound SDK constraint.
You should edit pubspec.yaml to contain an SDK constraint:
(...)

For example, the following constraint says that this package works with any Dart SDK that’s version 2.10.0 or higher:

environment:
  sdk: '>=2.10.0 <3.0.0'

if it is in master channel then switch to stable channel with :
