lb_discovery 1.0.1

Logbot MDNS discovery service to scan and find nearby devices

Logbot Discovery SDK for Flutter

This is a package that provides an MDNS service to scan and find nearby IoTs.

Requirements

Dart 2.17 or later

Installation & Usage

Add the dependencies from pub.dev:

dependencies:
  lb_auth:
  lb_discovery:

lb_auth is always required to make authorized calls to the APIs. To use the SDK on you application see the example below:

For Android, add the following properties to your Android Manifest:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CHANGE_WIFI_MULTICAST_STATE" />

For iOS, add the following properties to Info.plist:

<key>NSLocalNetworkUsageDescription</key>
<string>Required to discover local network devices</string>
<key>NSBonjourServices</key>
<array>
    <string>_http._tcp</string>
</array>

To use the SDK on you application see the example below:

import 'package:lb_auth/lb_auth.dart';
import 'package:lb_writer/lb_writer.dart';

class Example {
  
  Future<void> run() async {
    /// Initialize Logbot SDK by logging in with Logbot Credentials
    await LogbotAuth.init(LogbotCredentials(
      username: username,
      password: password,
      clientId: clientId,
      clientSecret: clientSecret,
    ));
    /// Now you can use every API included on the SDK
    /// for example:
    await LogbotDiscovery.startDiscovery();
    List<Device> response = await LogbotDiscovery.discovery.discoverLocal();
  }
}

Note that the user must be logged in with a Logbot account before using startDiscovery() otherwise it will throw an error. This is because the user can locally connect only to the IoTs that he actually owns.
