android_permissions_manager

Plugin to manage permissions on Android.

Based heavily on flutter_simple_permissions.

Getting Started

Add the dependency to your pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  android_permissoins_manager: any

For help getting started with Flutter, view our online documentation.

Usage Example

Import the package:

import 'package:android_permissions_manager/android_permissions_manager.dart'

Requesting a Permission

requestPermission() will open a dialog for the user to allow or deny the permission you are asking for.

PermissionResult result = await AndroidPermissionsManager.requestPermission(PermissionType.CAMERA);

switch(result) {
  case PermissionResult.granted:
    setState(() {
      _granted = true;
    });
    break;
  case PermissionResult.denied:
    setState(() {
      _granted = false;
    });
    break;
  case PermissionResult.showRationale:
    // showRationale means you should show the user why you need this permission
    Scaffold.of(context).showSnackBar(SnackBar(
      content: Text("We need the camera to show an image preview"),
    ));
    setState(() {
      _granted = false;
    });
    break;
}

Checking a Permission

checkPermission() will check if a user has previously granted a permission.

PermissionResult result = await AndroidPermissionsManager.checkPermission(PermissionType.CAMERA);

switch(result) {
  case PermissionResult.granted:
    setState(() {
      _granted = true;
    });
    break;
  case PermissionResult.denied:
    setState(() {
      _granted = false;
    });
    break;
  case PermissionResult.showRationale:
    // showRationale should be treated as denied when checking permissions
    setState(() {
      _granted = false;
    });
    break;
}

Opening Settings

Sometimes you will have top open the app settings (i.e. if a user has accidentally permanently denied a permision that you need)

// Always returns true instantly
bool result = await AndroidPermissionsManager.openSettings();
