Introduction #

A flutter plugin project to manage events between atsigns.

Get Started: #

Initially to get a basic overview of the SDK, you must read the atsign docs.

To use this package you must be having a basic setup, Follow here to get started.

Installation: #

To use this library in your app, add it to your pubspec.yaml

  dependencies:
    at_events_flutter: ^3.1.0

Add to your project

flutter pub get 

Import in your application code

import 'package:at_events_flutter/at_events_flutter.dart';

Clone it from github #

Feel free to fork a copy of the source from the GitHub Repo

Initialising: #

It is expected that the app will first authenticate an atsign using the Onboarding widget.

The event service needs to be initialised with a required GlobalKey

  initialiseEventService(
    navKey,
    mapKey: 'xxxx',
    apiKey: 'xxxx',
    rootDomain: 'root.atsign.org',
    streamAlternative: (__){},
    initLocation: true,
  );

As this package needs location permission, so add these for:

IOS: (ios/Runner/Info.plist)

<key>NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription</key>
<string>Explain the description here.</string>

Android: (android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml)

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />

at_events_flutter depends on at_location_flutter for the following features:

  • Sending/receiving location, make sure to initialise at_location_flutter inside/outside the at_events_flutter package, if location sharing is needed.
  • To render the map, pass [mapKey] to [initializeLocationService], if map is needed.
  • To calculate the ETA, pass [apiKey] to [initializeLocationService], if ETA is needed.

Usage #

To create a new event, using the default screen:

  CreateEvent(
    AtClientManager.getInstance(),
  ),

To use event creation/edit functions, use the [EventService()] singleton, make sure to call [EventService().init()] before using these functions:

  • createEvent() - Can create and edit based on [isEventUpdate] passed to [init()]
  • editEvent() - Will update the already created event
  • sendEventNotification() - Will create a new event

Navigating to the map screen for an event:

EventsMapScreenData().moveToEventScreen(eventNotificationModel);

Different datatypes used in the package:

 - EventNotificationModel: Contains the details of an event and is sent to atsigns while creating an event.
 - EventKeyLocationModel - The package uses this to keep a track of all the event notifications.

Steps to get mapKey #

Steps to get apiKey #

Example #

We have a good example with explanation in the at_events_flutter package.
