Add pod installation to ios/Podfile. (Because there is no latest ChannelIOSDK pod in Cocopod, can not add dependecy to plugin podspec properly.)

target 'Runner' do
  use_frameworks!
  use_modular_headers!
  # Add below line
  pod 'ChannelIOSDK', podspec: 'https://mobile-static.channel.io/ios/latest/xcframework.podspec'

  flutter_install_all_ios_pods File.dirname(File.realpath(__FILE__))
end

Add ChannelTalk initializing code to [project]/ios/Runner/AppDelegate.swift

import ChannelIOFront
...

    override func application(
        _ application: UIApplication,
        didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?
    ) -> Bool {
        ...
        ChannelIO.initialize(application)
        ...
    }
...

Android

Push notifications in combination with FCM

This plugin works in combination with the firebase_messaging plugin to receive Push Notifications. To set this up:

• First, implement firebase_messaging and check if it works: https://pub.dev/packages/firebase_messaging#android-integration
• Then, add the Firebase server key to Channel Talk, as described here: https://developers.channel.io/docs/android-push-notification
• Add the following to your AndroidManifest.xml file, so incoming messages are handled by Channel Talk:

    <service
        android:name="ai.deepnatural.channel_talk.PushInterceptService"
        android:enabled="true"
        android:exported="true">
        <intent-filter>
          <action android:name="com.google.firebase.MESSAGING_EVENT" />
        </intent-filter>
    </service>

just above the closing </application> tag.
