flutter_radar 4.0.0-beta.1

Flutter package for Radar, the leading geofencing and location tracking platform

Radar is the leading geofencing and location tracking platform.

The Radar SDK abstracts away cross-platform differences between location services, allowing you to add geofencing, location tracking, trip tracking, geocoding, and search to your apps with just a few lines of code.

Documentation

See the Radar overview documentation here.

Then, see the Flutter package documentation here.

Background event delivery

Use Radar.registerBackgroundHandler() to receive Radar events through a durable handler across foreground, background, and headless execution.

The handler must be a top-level or static function annotated with @pragma('vm:entry-point') so Flutter can invoke it after the primary Flutter engine has been terminated.

@pragma('vm:entry-point')
Future<void> radarBackgroundHandler(RadarBackgroundEvent event) async {
  switch (event.type) {
    case RadarBackgroundEventType.location:
    case RadarBackgroundEventType.clientLocation:
    case RadarBackgroundEventType.events:
    case RadarBackgroundEventType.error:
    case RadarBackgroundEventType.log:
    case RadarBackgroundEventType.token:
    case RadarBackgroundEventType.ipChanged:
    case RadarBackgroundEventType.sharingChanged:
      print('Radar background event: ${event.type.name} ${event.payload}');
  }
}

Future<void> initializeRadar() async {
  await Radar.initialize('prj_live_pk_...');
  await Radar.registerBackgroundHandler(radarBackgroundHandler);
}

Call Radar.registerBackgroundHandler() during normal Dart application initialization. No custom Android Application or iOS AppDelegate setup is required.

The durable background handler and Radar.onX listeners are independent subscriptions:

• The registered background handler is the durable event sink and can run in the primary Flutter engine or a headless engine.
• Radar.onX listeners are engine-scoped observers intended for active application or UI behavior.
• When both are registered on a running engine, both may receive the same underlying event.
• Durable events are delivered serially and queued until the appropriate Dart handler is ready.

Call Radar.unregisterBackgroundHandler() to remove the persisted handler and stop durable event delivery.
