Usage

// Import package
import 'package:record/record.dart';

// Check and request permission
bool result = await Record.hasPermission();

// Start recording
await Record.start(
  path: 'aFullPath/myFile.m4a', // required
  encoder: AudioEncoder.AAC, // by default
  bitRate: 128000, // by default
  sampleRate: 44100, // by default
);

// Stop recording
await Record.stop();

// Get the state of the recorder
bool isRecording = await Record.isRecording();

// There's nothing to dispose, this done internally each time you call stop method.
// The plugin is aware of activity lifecycle.
// So exiting, your app or activity will stop the recording (but won't delete the
// output file).
