CobiFlutterService plugin

This executes dart code in a second isolate while providing communication between the main and background isolates.

It also integrates with the device's status bar.

This plugin is currently only available for Android.

Usage

To use this plugin, add cobi_flutter_service as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file.

Then implement a runner function:

void serviceRunner(SendPort sendPort, ReceivePort receivePort) {
  print("Service runner executed");
}

To prepare your app to run the background service, initialize it:

void main() {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
  CobiFlutterService.instance.initService(serviceRunner, true);
  runApp(MyApp());
}

Then you can start the service by calling

CobiFlutterService.instance.startService();
