I'm willing to complete this issue myself and submit a PR for it. I just want to first make sure that this feature would actually be accepted by the Firebase / FlutterFire core maintainers, given the security implications.
It's also useful for tests in CI.
We really need this for debug tokens to be useful and maintainable. We're generating and updating our debug tokens via Terraform, but currently we can't use these in the Flutter apps as there is no method to supply our own token.
@thedalelakes did you ever get to work on a PR for this?
@josh-burton unfortunately I don't have the time to work on this at the moment. I ended up just turning off App Check enforcement in my dev environment.
What feature would you like to see?
In the React Native package for Firebase App Check, they created their own custom provider that essentially overrides the debug provider token. This allows a developer to specify a static, generated debug token in their code to use.
This is very convenient because, in the case where the developer must uninstall / reinstall the app, they can use the same debug token. Currently, a Flutter developer that installs a new version of the app must manually copy and paste the debug token from XCode / Logcat console output into their Firebase web console (and delete the old token), which becomes tedious when testing certain functionality that requires fresh installations of the application.
