import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_passkey_service/flutter_passkey_service.dart';

class PasskeyDemo extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(title: Text('Passkey Demo')),
      body: Center(
        child: Column(
          mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
          children: [
            ElevatedButton(
              onPressed: () => _registerPasskey(),
              child: Text('🔐 Register Passkey'),
            ),
            SizedBox(height: 20),
            ElevatedButton(
              onPressed: () => _authenticate(),
              child: Text('🔓 Authenticate'),
            ),
          ],
        ),
      ),
    );
  }

  Future<void> _registerPasskey() async {
    try {
      final options = FlutterPasskeyService.createRegistrationOptions(
        challenge: 'demo-challenge-${DateTime.now().millisecondsSinceEpoch}',
        rpName: 'Demo App',
        rpId: 'yourdomain.com', // Replace with your domain
        userId: 'demo-user',
        username: '[e-mail]',
        displayName: 'Demo User',
      );
      
      final response = await FlutterPasskeyService.register(options);
      print('✅ Registration successful: ${response.id}');
    } on PasskeyException catch (e) {
      print('❌ Registration failed: ${e.message}');
    }
  }

  Future<void> _authenticate() async {
    try {
      final request = FlutterPasskeyService.createAuthenticationOptions(
        challenge: 'auth-challenge-${DateTime.now().millisecondsSinceEpoch}',
        rpId: 'yourdomain.com', // Replace with your domain
      );
      
      final response = await FlutterPasskeyService.authenticate(request);
      print('✅ Authentication successful: ${response.id}');
    } on PasskeyException catch (e) {
      print('❌ Authentication failed: ${e.message}');
    }
  }
}

3️⃣ Essential Platform Setup

⚠️ Important: Domain verification is required for production use. The demo above works for testing, but you'll need to set up domain association for real apps.

iOS Setup

1. Minimum Requirements: iOS 16.0+

2. Add Capability: In Xcode, add "Associated Domains" capability

   • Open your project in Xcode
   • Select your target → "Signing & Capabilities"
   • Click "+" and add "Associated Domains"

3. Configure Domain: Add your domain with webcredentials prefix:

   webcredentials:yourdomain.com
   

4. Domain Verification: Create an apple-app-site-association file on your server:

   {
     "webcredentials": {
       "apps": ["TEAMID.com.yourcompany.yourapp"]
     }
   }
   

   • Host at: https://yourdomain.com/.well-known/apple-app-site-association
   • No file extension required
   • Content-Type: application/json
   • Verification Tool: Apple App Site Association Validator

Android Setup

1. Minimum Requirements: Android API 28+ (Android 9.0)

2. Add Dependencies: The plugin automatically includes required dependencies

3. Configure Digital Asset Links: Create an assetlinks.json file:

   [{
     "relation": ["delegate_permission/common.handle_all_urls"],
     "target": {
       "namespace": "android_app",
       "package_name": "com.yourcompany.yourapp",
       "sha256_cert_fingerprints": ["SHA256_FINGERPRINT_OF_YOUR_APP"]
     }
   }]
   

4. Host Asset Links File:

   • Upload to: https://yourdomain.com/.well-known/assetlinks.json
   • Content-Type: application/json
   • Must be accessible via HTTPS

5. Get SHA256 Fingerprint:

   # For debug keystore
   keytool -list -v -keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore -alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -keypass android
      
   # For release keystore
   keytool -list -v -keystore /path/to/your/keystore.jks -alias your_key_alias
   

6. Verification Tools:

   • Google Digital Asset Links Tester
   • Android Asset Links Testing Tool

4️⃣ Working with Server JSON

The library provides convenient methods to work with JSON data from your server:

import 'package:flutter_passkey_service/flutter_passkey_service.dart';

class ServerIntegration {
  
  /// Register with server-provided JSON options
  Future<bool> registerWithServerOptions() async {
    try {
      // Get registration options from your server
      final serverResponse = await getRegistrationOptionsFromServer();
      
      // Method 1: Create from JSON Map
      final options = FlutterPasskeyService.createRegistrationOptionsFromJson(serverResponse);
      
      // Method 2: Create from JSON String (if server returns string)
      // final options = FlutterPasskeyService.createRegistrationOptionsFromJsonString(jsonString);
      
      final result = await FlutterPasskeyService.register(options);
      
      // Send result to server for verification
      return await sendRegistrationResultToServer(result);
      
    } on PasskeyException catch (e) {
      print('Registration failed: ${e.message}');
      return false;
    }
  }
  
  /// Authenticate with server-provided JSON options
  Future<bool> authenticateWithServerOptions() async {
    try {
      // Get authentication options from your server
      final serverResponse = await getAuthenticationOptionsFromServer();
      
      // Create from JSON
      final request = FlutterPasskeyService.createAuthenticationOptionsFromJson(serverResponse);
      
      final result = await FlutterPasskeyService.authenticate(request);
      
      // Send result to server for verification
      return await sendAuthenticationResultToServer(result);
      
    } on PasskeyException catch (e) {
      print('Authentication failed: ${e.message}');
      return false;
    }
  }
  
  /// Example server responses that the JSON methods can handle
  Future<Map<String, dynamic>> getRegistrationOptionsFromServer() async {
    // Your server should return something like this:
    return {
      "challenge": "base64url-encoded-challenge",
      "rp": {
        "name": "My App",
        "id": "example.com"
      },
      "user": {
        "id": "user-123",
        "name": "[e-mail]",
        "displayName": "John Doe"
      },
      "pubKeyCredParams": [
        {"alg": -7, "type": "public-key"},   // ES256
        {"alg": -257, "type": "public-key"}  // RS256
      ],
      "timeout": 60000,
      "attestation": "none",
      "excludeCredentials": [], // Optional: exclude existing credentials
      "authenticatorSelection": {
        "residentKey": "preferred",
        "userVerification": "required",
        "requireResidentKey": false,
        "authenticatorAttachment": "platform"
      },
      "extensions": {
        "credProps": true
      }
    };
  }
  
  Future<Map<String, dynamic>> getAuthenticationOptionsFromServer() async {
    // Your server should return something like this:
    return {
      "challenge": "base64url-encoded-challenge",
      "rpId": "example.com",
      "allowCredentials": [
        {
          "id": "credential-id-1",
          "type": "public-key",
          "transports": ["internal", "hybrid"]
        }
      ],
      "timeout": 60000,
      "userVerification": "required"
    };
  }
  
  Future<bool> sendRegistrationResultToServer(CreatePasskeyResponseData result) async {
    // Send to your server for verification
    // Implementation depends on your backend
    return true;
  }
  
  Future<bool> sendAuthenticationResultToServer(GetPasskeyAuthenticationResponseData result) async {
    // Send to your server for verification  
    // Implementation depends on your backend
    return true;
  }
}

5️⃣ JSON Serialization Support

You can also convert options back to JSON for debugging or server communication:

// Convert options to JSON for debugging
final options = FlutterPasskeyService.createRegistrationOptions(/*...*/);
final jsonMap = options.toJson();
final jsonString = options.toJsonString();

print('Registration options: $jsonString');

// Same for authentication options
final authOptions = FlutterPasskeyService.createAuthenticationOptions(/*...*/);
final authJson = authOptions.toJson();

6️⃣ Production-Ready Example

Once you've set up domain verification, here's a production-ready implementation:

import 'package:flutter_passkey_service/flutter_passkey_service.dart';

class PasskeyAuthService {
  static const String rpId = 'yourdomain.com'; // Your verified domain
  static const String rpName = 'Your App Name';
  
  /// Register a new passkey for the user
  Future<bool> registerPasskey({
    required String userId,
    required String username,
    required String displayName,
    required String serverChallenge, // Get from your backend
  }) async {
    try {
      final options = FlutterPasskeyService.createRegistrationOptions(
        challenge: serverChallenge,
        rpName: rpName,
        rpId: rpId,
        userId: userId,
        username: username,
        displayName: displayName,
      );
      
      final response = await FlutterPasskeyService.register(options);
      
      // Send response to your server for verification and storage
      final success = await _sendToServer('/register', response);
      
      if (success) {
        print('✅ Passkey registered successfully');
        return true;
      }
      
    } on PasskeyException catch (e) {
      _handlePasskeyError(e);
    } catch (e) {
      print('❌ Unexpected error: $e');
    }
    
    return false;
  }
  
  /// Authenticate user with their passkey
  Future<bool> authenticate({
    required String serverChallenge, // Get from your backend
    List<String>? allowedCredentials, // Optional: restrict to specific credentials
  }) async {
    try {
      final request = FlutterPasskeyService.createAuthenticationOptions(
        challenge: serverChallenge,
        rpId: rpId,
        allowedCredentialIds: allowedCredentials,
      );
      
      final response = await FlutterPasskeyService.authenticate(request);
      
      // Send response to your server for verification
      final success = await _sendToServer('/authenticate', response);
      
      if (success) {
        print('✅ Authentication successful');
        return true;
      }
      
    } on PasskeyException catch (e) {
      _handlePasskeyError(e);
    } catch (e) {
      print('❌ Unexpected error: $e');
    }
    
    return false;
  }
  
  /// Handle passkey-specific errors with user-friendly messages
  void _handlePasskeyError(PasskeyException e) {
    switch (e.errorType) {
      case PasskeyErrorType.userCancelled:
        print('🚫 User cancelled the operation');
        break;
      case PasskeyErrorType.noCredentialsAvailable:
        print('📱 No passkeys available - please register first');
        break;
      case PasskeyErrorType.platformNotSupported:
        print('⚠️ Passkeys not supported on this device');
        break;
      case PasskeyErrorType.domainNotAssociated:
        print('🔗 Domain verification failed - check your setup');
        break;
      default:
        print('❌ Authentication failed: ${e.message}');
    }
  }
  
  /// Send authentication response to your backend
  Future<bool> _sendToServer(String endpoint, dynamic response) async {
    // Implement your server communication here
    // This should verify the response and return success/failure
    return true; // Placeholder
  }
}

📚 Comprehensive Guide

Domain Verification Setup

Proper domain verification is essential for passkey functionality. Both platforms require your app to be associated with your web domain.

iOS Domain Verification (Apple App Site Association)

1. Create the Association File:

   {
     "webcredentials": {
       "apps": [
         "TEAMID.com.yourcompany.yourapp",
         "TEAMID.com.yourcompany.yourapp.staging"
       ]
     }
   }
   

2. Host the File:

   • URL: https://yourdomain.com/.well-known/apple-app-site-association
   • Important: No .json file extension!
   • Content-Type: application/json
   • Must be served over HTTPS
   • Must return HTTP 200 status

3. Find Your Team ID:

   • Go to Apple Developer Account
   • Navigate to "Membership" section
   • Copy your Team ID (10-character string)

4. Verify Association:

   # Test your association file
   curl -v https://yourdomain.com/.well-known/apple-app-site-association
   

   • Use Apple's Validator

Android Domain Verification (Digital Asset Links)

1. Get Your App's SHA256 Fingerprint:

   # Debug keystore (for development)
   keytool -list -v -keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore -alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -keypass android | grep SHA256
      
   # Release keystore (for production)
   keytool -list -v -keystore /path/to/release-key.keystore -alias release-key-alias | grep SHA256
      
   # From APK file
   keytool -printcert -jarfile app-release.apk | grep SHA256
   

2. Create Asset Links File:

   [
     {
       "relation": ["delegate_permission/common.handle_all_urls"],
       "target": {
         "namespace": "android_app",
         "package_name": "com.yourcompany.yourapp",
         "sha256_cert_fingerprints": [
           "AB:CD:EF:12:34:56:78:90:AB:CD:EF:12:34:56:78:90:AB:CD:EF:12:34:56:78:90:AB:CD:EF:12:34:56:78"
         ]
       }
     }
   ]
   

3. Host the File:

   • URL: https://yourdomain.com/.well-known/assetlinks.json
   • Content-Type: application/json
   • Must be served over HTTPS
   • Must return HTTP 200 status

4. Verify Asset Links:

   # Test your asset links file
   curl -v https://yourdomain.com/.well-known/assetlinks.json
   

   • Use Google's Tester
   • Use Asset Links Generator

Common Domain Verification Issues

Issue	Solution
File not found (404)	Ensure files are in /.well-known/ directory
HTTPS required	Both files must be served over HTTPS only
Wrong content-type	Set Content-Type: application/json
Invalid JSON	Validate JSON syntax
Wrong package name	Must match your app's package identifier exactly
Case sensitivity	Package names and fingerprints are case-sensitive
Caching issues	Clear CDN/server cache after updating files

Testing Domain Verification

// Test domain association in your Flutter app
void testDomainVerification() async {
  try {
    // This will fail if domain verification is not set up correctly
    final request = FlutterPasskeyService.createAuthenticationOptions(
      challenge: 'test-challenge',
      rpId: 'yourdomain.com', // Must match your verified domain
    );
    
    print('Domain verification appears to be working');
  } catch (e) {
    print('Domain verification issue: $e');
  }
}

Registration Flow

The passkey registration process involves creating a new credential for the user:

Future<CreatePasskeyResponseData> registerUser({
  required String username,
  required String userId,
  required String challenge,
}) async {
  // 1. Create registration options
  final options = RegisterGenerateOptionData(
    challenge: challenge, // Base64URL encoded challenge from server
    rp: RegisterGenerateOptionRp(
      name: 'Your App Name',
      id: 'yourdomain.com',
    ),
    user: RegisterGenerateOptionUser(
      id: userId, // Unique user identifier
      name: username,
      displayName: 'Display Name',
    ),
    pubKeyCredParams: [
      RegisterGenerateOptionPublicKeyParams(alg: -7, type: 'public-key'), // ES256
      RegisterGenerateOptionPublicKeyParams(alg: -257, type: 'public-key'), // RS256
    ],
    timeout: 60000,
    attestation: 'none',
    excludeCredentials: [], // Previously registered credentials to exclude
    authenticatorSelection: RegisterGenerateOptionAuthenticatorSelection(
      residentKey: 'preferred',
      userVerification: 'required',
      requireResidentKey: false,
      authenticatorAttachment: 'platform',
    ),
    extensions: RegisterGenerateOptionExtension(credProps: true),
  );
  
  // 2. Perform registration
  final response = await FlutterPasskeyService.register(options);
  
  // 3. Send to server for verification and storage
  // response contains: id, rawId, type, authenticatorAttachment, 
  // response (attestationObject, clientDataJSON), clientExtensionResults
  
  return response;
}

Authentication Flow

Authenticate users with their existing passkeys:

Future<GetPasskeyAuthenticationResponseData> authenticateUser({
  required String challenge,
  List<String>? allowedCredentialIds,
}) async {
  // 1. Create authentication request
  final request = AuthGenerateOptionResponseData(
    rpId: 'yourdomain.com',
    challenge: challenge, // Base64URL encoded challenge from server
    allowCredentials: allowedCredentialIds?.map((id) => 
      AuthGenerateOptionAllowCredential(
        id: id,
        type: 'public-key',
        transports: ['internal', 'hybrid'],
      )
    ).toList() ?? [],
    timeout: 60000,
    userVerification: 'required',
  );
  
  // 2. Perform authentication
  final response = await FlutterPasskeyService.authenticate(request);
  
  // 3. Send to server for verification
  // response contains: id, rawId, type, authenticatorAttachment,
  // response (clientDataJSON, authenticatorData, signature, userHandle)
  
  return response;
}

Error Handling

The plugin provides comprehensive error handling through PasskeyException:

try {
  await FlutterPasskeyService.register(options);
} on PasskeyException catch (e) {
  switch (e.errorType) {
    case PasskeyErrorType.userCancelled:
      showMessage('User cancelled the operation');
      break;
    case PasskeyErrorType.noCredentialsAvailable:
      showMessage('No passkeys available for this account');
      break;
    case PasskeyErrorType.invalidParameters:
      showMessage('Invalid request parameters');
      break;
    case PasskeyErrorType.platformNotSupported:
      showMessage('Passkeys not supported on this device');
      break;
    default:
      showMessage('Authentication failed: ${e.message}');
  }
}

Server Integration

Challenge Generation

// Generate a cryptographically secure challenge on your server
String generateChallenge() {
  final bytes = List<int>.generate(32, (i) => Random.secure().nextInt(256));
  return base64Url.encode(bytes);
}

Verification

// Verify registration response on server
bool verifyRegistration(CreatePasskeyResponseData response, String challenge) {
  // 1. Decode and verify clientDataJSON
  // 2. Verify challenge matches
  // 3. Verify origin matches your domain
  // 4. Parse and verify attestationObject
  // 5. Store credential for future authentication
  return true; // Simplified
}

// Verify authentication response on server
bool verifyAuthentication(GetPasskeyAuthenticationResponseData response, String challenge) {
  // 1. Decode and verify clientDataJSON
  // 2. Verify challenge matches
  // 3. Verify origin matches your domain
  // 4. Verify signature using stored public key
  // 5. Update credential sign count
  return true; // Simplified
}

🧪 Testing

Unit Testing

import 'package:flutter_test/flutter_test.dart';
import 'package:flutter_passkey_service/flutter_passkey_service.dart';

void main() {
  group('FlutterPasskeyService', () {
    test('createRegistrationOptions returns valid options', () {
      final options = FlutterPasskeyService.createRegistrationOptions(
        challenge: 'test-challenge',
        rpName: 'Test App',
        rpId: 'test.com',
        userId: 'user-123',
        username: '[e-mail]',
      );
      
      expect(options.challenge, 'test-challenge');
      expect(options.rp.name, 'Test App');
      expect(options.user.id, 'user-123');
    });
  });
}

Integration Testing

import 'package:integration_test/integration_test.dart';
import 'package:flutter_test/flutter_test.dart';

void main() {
  IntegrationTestWidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
  
  group('Passkey Integration Tests', () {
    testWidgets('registration flow', (tester) async {
      // Test complete registration flow
      // Note: Requires physical device and user interaction
    });
  });
}

🔐 Security Considerations

1. Challenge Generation: Always generate challenges server-side using cryptographically secure methods
2. Origin Verification: Verify the origin in clientDataJSON matches your domain
3. Timeout Handling: Implement appropriate timeouts for user operations
4. Error Messages: Avoid exposing sensitive information in error messages
5. Credential Storage: Store public keys and metadata securely on your server
6. Sign Count: Track and validate signature counter to prevent replay attacks
