receive_whatsapp_chat

A flutter plugin that enables flutter apps to receive chats from Whatsapp.

Note: the pulgin is currently Android only.

Setup

Please add the following to android/app/main/java/.../MainActivity.java.

import android.os.Bundle;

import io.flutter.plugins.GeneratedPluginRegistrant;

import com.whatsapp.receive_whatsapp_chat.FlutterShareReceiverActivity;

public class MainActivity extends FlutterShareReceiverActivity {
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        GeneratedPluginRegistrant.registerWith(this.getFlutterEngine());
    }
}

Usage

You can import the package with:

import 'package:receive_whatsapp_chat/receive_whatsapp_chat.dart';

You need to create a class that extends the class ReceiveWhatsappChat.

class DemoAppState extends ReceiveWhatsappChat<DemoApp>

It will make you implement a function that receive Chat content class every time a chat is exported from WhatsApp. Chat content contains chat members, chat name, messages per member, size of the chat and all of its messages.

@override
void receiveChatContent(ChatContent chatContent) {
  // TODO: implement receiveChatContent
}

Note: enableShareReceiving() is called automatically when the plugin is initialized, so remember to call disableShareReceiving() when you don't want to receive chats anymore or close the app.
