About
The plugin compares two version codes:
- The code for the app installed on the device.
- Code for a new version of the app compiled using JSON.
In fact the package acquires the necessary information for the comparison between the two versions, through a JSON file compiled by the user himself.
| Key | Value |
|---|---|
| app_name | the name of the app |
| new_app_version | the new app version |
| new_app_code | the new app code |
| android_package | android app package name |
| ios_package | ios bundle identify |
| windows_package | android app package name |
| linux_package | ios bundle identify |
| macos_package | android app package name |
| web_package | ios bundle identify |
| ios_app_id | iOS app id number |

Install
Import the Check App Version package
To use the Check App Version package, follow the plugin installation instructions.
Use the package
Add the following import to your Dart code:
import 'package:check_app_version/show_dialog.dart';
Now we have two option to show the app version dialog. We can use ShowDialog(jsonUrl: 'my url').checkVersion() to check the version and show a dialog with customization properties. If instead we want to use our own Custom Dialog, we can use ShowCustomDialog(jsonUrl: 'my url').checkVersion() and add the Builder of our dialog. Remember to replace 'my link' with the link that refers to our previously created and customized JSON file
ShowDialog(
context: context,
jsonUrl: 'https://besimsoft.com/example.json',
).checkVersion();
ShowCustomDialog(
context: context,
jsonUrl: 'https://besimsoft.com/example.json',
dialogBuilder: (BuildContext ) => return AlertDialog()
).checkVersion();
