Bhashini Flutter SDK

Translate any Flutter app into 22 Indian languages — without changing a single widget.

The SDK walks the Flutter element tree, collects every Text string on screen, sends them to the Bhashini translation backend in batches, and mutates the RenderParagraph objects in-place. No setState, no rebuilds, no wrapper widgets.

---

Features

• Zero widget changes — works on existing apps as-is
• 22 Indian languages — all IndicTrans2-supported languages
• Auto-retranslation on screen navigation via NavigatorObserver
• Progressive rendering — each chunk appears as it arrives
• In-memory cache — subsequent visits to a screen are instant
• Drop-in FAB — pre-built translate button with language picker

Installation

dependencies:
  bhashini_flutter_translation_plugin_sdk: ^1.0.0

flutter pub get

Setup

1. Register your app on the Bhashini portal

Go to the Bhashini developer portal and register your Android app. You will need:

Field	Where to find it
Package name	android/app/build.gradle → applicationId
Certificate fingerprint	keytool -list -v -keystore your-release.jks → SHA-256 line

After registration you will receive a serviceId for use in step 2.

2. Initialise the SDK in main.dart

void main() {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();

  BhashiniSDK.init(
    baseUrl: 'https://mobile-plugin.bhashini.gov.in',
    serviceId: 'ai4bharat/indictrans-v2-all-gpu--t4/btp',
    packageName: 'com.example.myapp',
    certificateFingerprint: 'AB:CD:EF:12:34:...',   // SHA-256 of your signing cert
  );

  runApp(const MyApp());
}

3. Wire into MaterialApp — two lines

MaterialApp(
  navigatorObservers: [BhashiniSDK.navigatorObserver], // detects screen changes
  home: Scaffold(
    floatingActionButton: const BhashiniFAB(),         // translate button
    body: const MyHomeScreen(),
  ),
)

That's the entire integration. The SDK handles everything else automatically.

How it works

User taps FAB → language picker sheet
        ↓
User picks a language (e.g. Hindi)
        ↓
SDK walks the Flutter element tree
  element.visitChildren() on rootElement
        ↓
Collects all Text widget strings
        ↓
Sends batches of 25 to /mobile/translate-text
  with X-App-Package + X-App-Certificate headers
        ↓
Translations injected into RenderParagraph.text
  (no widget rebuild required)
        ↓
NavigatorObserver detects screen push/pop
  → re-translates new screen automatically

API reference

BhashiniSDK.init()

BhashiniSDK.init({
  required String baseUrl,            // backend URL
  required String serviceId,          // IndicTrans2 service ID
  String sourceLanguage = 'en',       // source language (default English)
  String? packageName,                // X-App-Package header
  String? certificateFingerprint,     // X-App-Certificate header
});

BhashiniSDK.setLanguage(SupportedLanguage)

Programmatically set the translation language without showing the picker UI.

BhashiniSDK.restoreOriginal()

Restore all text to the original English (or source language).

BhashiniSDK.navigatorObserver

Add to MaterialApp.navigatorObservers to re-translate automatically on every screen change.

BhashiniFAB

Drop-in FloatingActionButton. Shows a spinner while translating, a language/restore menu when already translated.

Scaffold(
  floatingActionButton: const BhashiniFAB(),
)

BhashiniSDK.instance.status

BhashiniStatus enum: idle | loading | translated | error

BhashiniSDK.instance.onStateChanged

Callback fired on every status change. Use to show custom loading indicators or error banners.

BhashiniSDK.instance.onStateChanged = () {
  if (BhashiniSDK.instance.status == BhashiniStatus.error) {
    showErrorSnackbar(BhashiniSDK.instance.lastError);
  }
};
