Configuration for Web

Web

The plugin allows you to insert Meet Hour meeting in a flutter web project.

  • Set the meeting view as a child for a flutter component allowing sizing the meeting section with onload callback
  • Set listeners to meeting events
  • Send commands to meetting

To implement you need to include Meet Hour External API by passing API Keys available on this link - https://portal.meethour.io/customer/developers

<script src="https://api.meethour.io/libs/v2.4.6/external_api.min.js?apiKey=${API_KEY}" type="application/javascript"></script>

Example:

<body>
  <script>
    if ('serviceWorker' in navigator) {
      window.addEventListener('load', function () {
        navigator.serviceWorker.register('/flutter_service_worker.js');
      });
    }
  </script>
  <script src="https://api.meethour.io/libs/v2.4.6/external_api.min.js?apiKey=${API_KEY}" type="application/javascript"></script>
  <script src="main.dart.js" type="application/javascript"></script>
</body>
</html>

Configuration for Android & iOS

Configuration

IOS

  • Note: Example compilable with XCode 12.2 & Flutter 1.22.4.

Podfile

Ensure in your Podfile you have an entry like below declaring platform of 11.0 or above and disable BITCODE.

platform :ios, '12.1'

...

post_install do |installer|
  installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
  flutter_additional_ios_build_settings(target)
      target.build_configurations.each do |config|
        config.build_settings['ENABLE_BITCODE'] = 'NO'
        config.build_settings["EXCLUDED_ARCHS[sdk=iphonesimulator*]"] = "arm64"
         end
     end
   end

Info.plist

Add NSCameraUsageDescription and NSMicrophoneUsageDescription to your Info.plist.

<key>NSCameraUsageDescription</key>
<string>$(PRODUCT_NAME) MyApp needs access to your camera for meetings.</string>
<key>NSMicrophoneUsageDescription</key>
<string>$(PRODUCT_NAME) MyApp needs access to your microphone for meetings.</string>

Android

Gradle

Set dependencies of build tools gradle to minimum 3.6.3:

dependencies {
    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:7.1.0' <!-- Upgrade this -->
    classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"
}

Set distribution gradle wrapper to minimum 5.6.4.

distributionBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
distributionPath=wrapper/dists
zipStoreBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
zipStorePath=wrapper/dists
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-7.2-bin.zip <!-- Upgrade this -->

AndroidManifest.xml

Meet Hour's SDK AndroidManifest.xml will conflict with your project, namely the application:label field. To counter that, go into android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml and add the tools library and tools:replace="android:label" to the application tag.

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="yourpackage.com"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"> <!-- Add this -->
    <application 
        tools:replace="android:label"  
        android:name="your.application.name"
        android:label="My Application"
        android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher">
        ...
    </application>
...
</manifest>

Minimum SDK Version 23

Update your minimum sdk version to 23 in android/app/build.gradle

defaultConfig {
    applicationId "go.meethour.io.flutter.sdk_example"
    minSdkVersion 23 //Required for MeetHour
    targetSdkVersion 33
    versionCode flutterVersionCode.toInteger()
    versionName flutterVersionName
}

Proguard

MeetHour's SDK enables proguard, but without a proguard-rules.pro file, your release apk build will be missing the Flutter Wrapper as well as react-native code. In your Flutter project's android/app/build.gradle file, add proguard support

buildTypes {
    release {
        // TODO: Add your own signing config for the release build.
        // Signing with the debug keys for now, so `flutter run --release` works.
        signingConfig signingConfigs.debug
        
        // Add below 3 lines for proguard
        minifyEnabled false
        useProguard true
        proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
    }
}

Then add a file in the same directory called proguard-rules.pro. See the example app's proguard-rules.pro file to know what to paste in.

Note
If you do not create the proguard-rules.pro file, then your app will crash when you try to join a meeting or the meeting screen tries to open but closes immediately. You will see one of the below errors in logcat.

onConferenceJoined User has joined meeting.
onConferenceTerminated User has exited the conference.
onPictureInPictureWillEnter User entered PIP mode.
onPictureInPictureTerminated User exited PIP mode.
onError Error has occurred with listening to meeting events.

Per Meeting Events

To listen to meeting events per meeting, pass in a MeetHourMeetingListener in joinMeeting. The listener will automatically be removed when an
onConferenceTerminated event is fired.

await MeetHour.joinMeeting(options,
  listener: MeetHourMeetingListener(onConferenceWillJoin: ({message}) {
    debugPrint("${options.room} will join with message: $message");
  }, onConferenceJoined: ({message}) {
    debugPrint("${options.room} joined with message: $message");
  }, onConferenceTerminated: ({message}) {
    debugPrint("${options.room} terminated with message: $message");
  }, onPictureInPictureWillEnter: ({message}) {
	debugPrint("${options.room} entered PIP mode with message: $message");
  }, onPictureInPictureTerminated: ({message}) {
	debugPrint("${options.room} exited PIP mode with message: $message");
  }));

Global Meeting Events

To listen to global meeting events, simply add a MeetHourListener with
MeetHour.addListener(myListener). You can remove listeners using
MeetHour.removeListener(listener) or MeetHour.removeAllListeners().

@override
void initState() {
  super.initState();
  MeetHour.addListener(MeetHourMeetingListener(
    onConferenceWillJoin: _onConferenceWillJoin,
    onConferenceJoined: _onConferenceJoined,
    onConferenceTerminated: _onConferenceTerminated,
    onPictureInPictureWillEnter: _onPictureInPictureWillEnter,
    onPictureInPictureTerminated: _onPictureInPictureTerminated,
    onError: _onError));
}

@override
void dispose() {
  super.dispose();
  MeetHour.removeAllListeners();
}

_onConferenceWillJoin({message}) {
  debugPrint("_onConferenceWillJoin broadcasted");
}

_onConferenceJoined({message}) {
  debugPrint("_onConferenceJoined broadcasted");
}

_onConferenceTerminated({message}) {
  debugPrint("_onConferenceTerminated broadcasted");
}

_onPictureInPictureWillEnter({message}) {
debugPrint("_onPictureInPictureWillEnter broadcasted with message: $message");
}

_onPictureInPictureTerminated({message}) {
debugPrint("_onPictureInPictureTerminated broadcasted with message: $message");
}

_onError(error) {
  debugPrint("_onError broadcasted");
}

Closing a Meeting Programmatically

MeetHour.closeMeeting();
