Getting started

What Version Checker do

A Flutter plugin that makes it possible to:

• Check if a user has the most recent version of your app installed.

Installation

Add version_checker as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file.

dependencies:
  version_checker: ^0.0.1

Usage

In main.dart (or wherever your app is initialized), create an instance of VersionChecker.

final versionChecker = VersionChecker();

The plugin will automatically use your Flutter package identifier to check the app store. If your app has a different identifier in the Google Play Store or Apple App Store, you can overwrite this by providing values for androidId and/or iOSId. If you need to check AppGallery, you must set checkAppGallery to true and provide appGalleryId, appGalleryClientId and appGalleryClientSecret:

VersionChecker versionChecker = VersionChecker(
      checkAppGallery: true
      appGalleryId: "<your app ID>",
      appGalleryClientId: "<yout app gallery client ID>",
      appGalleryClientSecret:
          "<yout app gallery client secret ID>",
    );

VersionStatus status = await versionChecker.getVersionStatus();

print(value!.localVersion);
print(value!.storeVersion);
print(value!.canUpdate);
print(value!.storeLink);

For iOS: If your app is only available outside the U.S. App Store, you will need to set iOSAppStoreCountry to the two-letter country code of the store you want to search. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2 for a list of ISO Country Codes.
