💡 Overview

A Flutter plugin that allows you to create a floating bubble on the screen built on top of Floating-Bubble-View library by TorryDo 💙

The plugin currently supports Android only.

🔧 Setup

Set the minimum SDK version to 21 or higher in your android/app/build.gradle file:

android {
    defaultConfig {
        ...
        minSdkVersion 21 // Set this to 21 or higher
        ...
    }
}

The plugin uses these two permissions but you don't need to add them to your AndroidManifest.xml file because the plugin will add them automatically:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE" />

💻 Usage

Import the package:

import 'package:dash_bubble/dash_bubble.dart';

Use the singleton instance of DashBubble to access all the available methods, for example:

DashBubble.instance.requestPermission()
DashBubble.instance.startBubble()
