Use this Option B in link to include Flutter model.
The project starts, but as soon as it comes to initializing the FlutterEngine, this error is thrown.

Solution

The actions are the following and the solution:

  • created Flutter module.

  • used connection to android via Option B.

  • since the project had no name: app,
    i wrote in gradle.properties -> flutter.hostAppProjectName = myAppName

  • my settings.gradle looked like this

    rootProject.name = "mobileAndroid"
    include ‘: app’
    setBinding (new Binding ([gradle: this]))
    evaluate (new File (
    settingsDir.parentFile,
    ‘./SuperApp_Frontend_Silpo/.android/include_flutter.groovy’
    ))

But the problem was that the project had its own buildTypes, so it was necessary to write

staging {
matchingFallbacks = ['debug', 'release']
}

in Flutter module build.gradle
