Looking for maintainer

I'm looking for someone to take over the maintenance of this package as currently I don't work on flutter or Star Micromics printer, I can't really validate any changes on Star Micromics native code. Please open an issue if you're interested, generally I'm just looking for someone that can give me confidence you won't just hijack the package for something else.

Updating from 1.0.4 and lower

If you're having trouble please run these commands

rm -rf ios/Pods && rm ios/Podfile.lock && flutter clean

Getting Started

import 'package:flutter_star_prnt/flutter_star_prnt.dart';

// Find printers
List<PortInfo> list = await StarPrnt.portDiscovery(StarPortType.All);

list.forEach((port) async {
/// Check status
await StarPrnt.checkStatus(portName: port.portName,emulation: 'StarGraphic',)
}

///send print commands to printer
PrintCommands commands = PrintCommands();
commands.push({
 'appendBitmapText': "Hello World"
});
commands.push({
 'appendCutPaper': "FullCutWithFeed"
});
await StarPrnt.print(portName: port.portName, emulation: 'StarGraphic',printCommands: commands)
