FlashCat WebView Tracking for Flutter

Forked from the Datadog Flutter SDK and customized for FlashCat Cloud. Only the published package name changes (flashcat_webview_tracking); internal namespaces remain datadog*. See flashcat_flutter_plugin for the full list of differences.

Overview

This package is an extension to the flashcat_flutter_plugin. It allows Real User Monitoring to monitor web views and eliminate blind spots in your hybrid Flutter applications.

Instrumenting your web views

The RUM Flutter SDK provides APIs for you to control web view tracking when using the webview_flutter package.

Add both the flashcat_webview_tracking package and the webview_flutter package to your pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  webview_flutter: ^4.0.4
  flashcat_flutter_plugin: ^0.1.0
  flashcat_webview_tracking: ^0.1.0

To add Web View Tracking, call the trackDatadogEvents extension method on WebViewController, providing the list of allowed hosts.

For example:

import 'package:flashcat_flutter_plugin/flashcat_flutter_plugin.dart';
import 'package:flashcat_webview_tracking/flashcat_webview_tracking.dart';

webViewController = WebViewController()
  ..setJavaScriptMode(JavaScriptMode.unrestricted)
  ..trackDatadogEvents(
    DatadogSdk.instance,
    ['myapp.example'],
  )
  ..loadRequest(Uri.parse('myapp.example'));

Note that JavaScriptMode.unrestricted is required for tracking to work on Android.
