🚀 Quick Start

Installation

dependencies:
  flutter_live_logger: ^0.3.0

🔥 Zero-Configuration Start (New in 0.3.0!)

import 'package:flutter_live_logger/flutter_live_logger.dart';

void main() async {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
  
  // 🚀 One line to start - that's it!
  await FlutterLiveLogger.start();
  
  runApp(MyApp());
}

The logger automatically configures itself with sensible defaults for your environment.

🎯 Environment-Specific Configurations

// Development (verbose logging, console output)
await FlutterLiveLogger.startDevelopment();

// Production (optimized performance, file storage)
await FlutterLiveLogger.startProduction();

// Custom configuration
await FlutterLiveLogger.init(
  config: LoggerConfig.production(
    transports: [
      HttpTransport(config: HttpTransportConfig(
        endpoint: 'https://your-api.com/logs',
        apiKey: 'your-api-key',
      )),
      FileTransport(config: FileTransportConfig(
        directory: '/app/logs',
        compressRotatedFiles: true,
      )),
    ],
  ),
);

Logging Messages

// Simple logging
FlutterLiveLogger.info('User logged in');
FlutterLiveLogger.error('Payment failed');

// With structured data
FlutterLiveLogger.event('purchase', {
  'item': 'Premium',
  'price': 9.99,
});

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      title: 'My App',
      navigatorObservers: [
        FlutterLiveLoggerNavigatorObserver(
          enableDurationTracking: true,
          enableBreadcrumbs: true,
        ),
      ],
      home: HomeScreen(),
    );
  }
}

4. Start Logging

      body: Center(
        child: ElevatedButton(
          onPressed: () {
            // Simple logging
            FlutterLiveLogger.info('User clicked button');
            
            // Event tracking with structured data
            FlutterLiveLogger.event('button_click', {
              'button_id': 'main_cta',
              'screen': 'home',
              'timestamp': DateTime.now().toIso8601String(),
            });
            
            // Error logging with context
            try {
              throw Exception('Demo error');
            } catch (error, stackTrace) {
              FlutterLiveLogger.error(
                'Operation failed',
                data: {'operation': 'demo'},
                error: error,
                stackTrace: stackTrace,

final httpTransport = HttpTransport(
  config: HttpTransportConfig.withApiKey(
    endpoint: 'https://api.example.com/logs',
    apiKey: 'your-api-key',
    batchSize: 10,
    timeout: Duration(seconds: 30),
    maxRetries: 3,
  ),
);

Storage Options

// Memory Storage (fast, non-persistent)
final memoryStorage = MemoryStorage(maxEntries: 10000);

  path: 'app_logs.db',
  maxEntries: 100000,
);

🌐 Web Platform Support

Flutter Live Logger fully supports web platforms with CORS-enabled HTTP transport:

  ),
)

Note: Server must have proper CORS headers configured:

Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET, POST, OPTIONS
Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Origin, Content-Type, X-API-Key
