Setup

Android

android/build.gradle

  buildscript {
    dependencies {
      // ... other dependencies
      classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.3'
    }
  }

android/app/build.gradle

  // under apply plugin: 'com.android.application' or at the end of file
  apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'

if you are faceing multidex error while building your app you can do one of this

  minSdkVersion 21 

or

   android {
       defaultConfig {
           // ...
           minSdkVersion 16
           targetSdkVersion 28
           multiDexEnabled true 
       }
   }
   
   dependencies {
     implementation 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.3'
   }

Dart/Flutter

Initialize

 await FCMConfig.init();
 //or if you need to listen background notification
 //Pass top level function

  Future<void> _firebaseMessagingBackgroundHandler(RemoteMessage  message) async {
   print("Handling a background message: ${message.messageId}");
  }
  
  void main() async {
    FCMConfig.init(onBackgroundMessage: _firebaseMessagingBackgroundHandler);
    runApp(MaterialApp(
      home: MyHomePage(),
    ));
  }

• To know more about background handler please https://firebase.flutter.dev/docs/messaging/usage#background-messages

Get token

FCMConfig.getToken().then((token) {
      print(token);
 });

To get notification that launched the application

 await FCMConfig.getInitialMessage();// may be null
 

Now to listen to incomming notification :

• First option

  class MyScreen extends StatelessWidget {
    @override
    Widget build(BuildContext context) {
      return FCMNotificationListener(
        onNotification:
            (RemoteMessage notification, void Function() setState) {},
        child: SizedBox(),
      );
    }
  }
  

• Second option

  class MyScreen extends StatefulWidget {
    @override
    _MyScreenState createState() => _MyScreenState();
  }
    
  class _MyScreenState extends State<MyScreen>
      with FCMNotificationMixin {
    @override
    Widget build(BuildContext context) {
      return SizedBox();
    }
    
    @override
    void onNotify(RemoteMessage notification) {
      // do some thing
    }
  }
    
  

To listen notification tap there is FCMNotificationClickListener and FCMNotificationClickMixin but be aware that its recommended to use it in main screen

Localize your notification

Till that moment firbase_messaging plugin dont give any option to localize notification according to app locale So we cand do this workaround

1- First you have to insure your locale are save using any package like shared_prefrence 2- Add the following lines to the didFinishLaunchingWithOptions method in the AppDelegate.m/AppDelegate.swift file of your iOS project Objective-C:

if (@available(iOS 10.0, *)) {
  [UNUserNotificationCenter currentNotificationCenter].delegate = (id<UNUserNotificationCenterDelegate>) self;
}

Swift:

if #available(iOS 10.0, *) {
  UNUserNotificationCenter.current().delegate = self as? UNUserNotificationCenterDelegate
}

3- You have to make sure that the notification not send with notification object just data this will prevent the default notification to be displayed example

{
  "data":{
    "title_key":"New_Order_Title",
    "body_key":"New_Order_Body",
    "body_args":"150",
  }
}

4- Use background handler to view your translated notification

Map<String, Map<String, String>> translations = {
  "ar": {
    "New_Order_Title": "طلب جديد",
    "New_Order_Body": "لديك طلب جديد برقم{args}",
  },
  "en": {
    "New_Order_Title": "New order",
    "New_Order_Body": "You has new order with number {args}",
  }
};
Future<void> _firebaseMessagingBackgroundHandler(
    RemoteMessage _notification) async {
  var strings = translations[(await getSavedLocale()).languageCode];
  if (strings == null) strings = translations["en"];
  String title = strings[_notification.data["title_key"]];
  String body = strings[_notification.data["body_key"]]
      .replaceAll("{args}", _notification.data["body_args"]);
  FCMConfig.displayNotification(title: title, body: body);
}

Future<Locale> getSavedLocale() async {
  SharedPreferences prefs = await SharedPreferences.getInstance();
  await prefs.reload();
  var locale = prefs.containsKey("locale") ? prefs.getString("locale") : null;
  return Locale(locale ?? Platform.localeName);
}


  void main() async {
    FCMConfig.init(onBackgroundMessage: _firebaseMessagingBackgroundHandler);
    runApp(MaterialApp(
      home: MyHomePage(),
    ));
  }
