Usage 📱

Basic Example

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

void main() {
  runApp(const MyApp());
}

class MyApp extends StatefulWidget {
  const MyApp({super.key});

  @override
  State<MyApp> createState() => _MyAppState();
}

class _MyAppState extends State<MyApp> {
  String networkStatus = "Checking Internet...";

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();

    // Listen to network changes
    NetWatchX.onStatusChange.listen((status) {
      setState(() {
        if (status == NetworkStatus.connected) {
          networkStatus = "Internet Connected ✅";
        } else {
          networkStatus = "No Internet ❌";
        }
      });
    });

    // Initial internet check
    checkInternet();
  }

  Future<void> checkInternet() async {
    bool isConnected = await NetWatchX.isConnected();
    setState(() {
      networkStatus = isConnected ? "Internet Connected ✅" : "No Internet ❌";
    });
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      home: Scaffold(
        appBar: AppBar(title: const Text("NetWatchX Example")),
        body: Center(
          child: Text(
            networkStatus,
            style: const TextStyle(fontSize: 24, fontWeight: FontWeight.bold),
          ),
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}

Using NetWatchXBuilder Widget

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

class MyWidget extends StatelessWidget {
  const MyWidget({super.key});

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return NetWatchXBuilder(
      online: const Text('You are online! ✅'),
      offline: const Text('You are offline! ❌'),
    );
  }
}

Check Connection Status

// One-time check
bool isConnected = await NetWatchX.isConnected();

if (isConnected) {
  print('Internet is available');
} else {
  print('No internet connection');
}

Listen to Connection Changes

StreamSubscription<NetworkStatus> subscription = 
  NetWatchX.onStatusChange.listen((status) {
    if (status == NetworkStatus.connected) {
      print('Connected to internet');
    } else {
      print('Disconnected from internet');
    }
  });

// Don't forget to cancel the subscription when done
subscription.cancel();
