@stuartmorgan Sorry for the mention but I saw you recently worked on shared_prferences, would it be possible to review this PR ? It hopefully is all good but it's the first time I contribue here so I might have done mistakes.

@blaxou fix the conflicts plz. I need this feature too

@jimmyrogue I'm waiting for someone to review it and as soon as it is I will resolve the conflicts, but this PR doesn't seem to get enough attention to get reviewed.

@blaxou I didn't see your earlier message, but I'm not a maintainer of the mobile shared_preferences plugin.

I recommend reading https://github.com/flutter/plugins/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#the-review-process; note in particular that reviews are prioritized by issue priority, so not filling an issue describing this proposal is likely why it hasn't gotten attention.

@stuartmorgan Oh you are right I completely forgot about this part. I just filed an issue on the main repo !

@jimmyrogue I posted the issue on the main repo, feel free to react to it so that it gets review faster ! flutter/flutter#64739

How would a user be able to set the suiteName with the documented methods?

Am I understanding it correctly that one can't use await SharedPreferences.getInstance() but has to manually initialize a MethodChannelSharedPreferencesStore instance?

 SharedPreferencesStorePlatform.instance = MethodChannelSharedPreferencesStore(suiteName: 'mySuiteName');
await SharedPreferences.getInstance(); // Always now returns the right instance with suite name specified

I need to migrate the request to null-safety though. Will see when i have time to do so.

hi @gaetschwartz! Do we know the status of this MR and getting it officially merged into shared_preferences ?

Seems like this issue has stagnated since April?

Looks like this PR is missing tests, and seems to be failing some of the existing tests.
@gaetschwartz any chance you're still looking at this PR?

Since this is marked as a draft and hasn't been touched in a few months I'm going to close it to clean out our review queue. Please don't hesitate to submit a new PR if you decide to revisit this. Thanks!
