connection_info

Get current internet conenction information from within the Flutter application.

Platform Support

Usage

Import package:connection_info/connection_info.dart, instantiate ConnectionController and listen to the stream for internet connection status.

Example:

import 'package:device_info_plus/device_info_plus.dart';

DeviceInfoPlugin deviceInfo = DeviceInfoPlugin();
AndroidDeviceInfo androidInfo = await deviceInfo.androidInfo;
print('Running on ${androidInfo.model}');  // e.g. "Moto G (4)"

IosDeviceInfo iosInfo = await deviceInfo.iosInfo;
print('Running on ${iosInfo.utsname.machine}');  // e.g. "iPod7,1"

WebBrowserInfo webBrowserInfo = await deviceInfo.webBrowserInfo;
print('Running on ${webBrowserInfo.userAgent}');  // e.g. "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:61.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/61.0"

One common use case for this plugin is obtaining device information for telemetry or crash-reporting purposes. In this scenario your app is not interested in specific properties, instead it wants to send all it knows about the device to your backend service for further analysis. You can leverage deviceInfo property, which returns platform-specific device information in a generic way. You then use it's toMap method to serialize all known properties to a Map. Your backend service should be prepared to handle new properties, which can be added to this plugin in the future.

import 'package:device_info_plus/device_info_plus.dart';

final deviceInfoPlugin = DeviceInfoPlugin();
final deviceInfo = await deviceInfoPlugin.deviceInfo;
final map = deviceInfo.toMap();
// Push [map] to your service.
