wakelock #
Plugin that allows you to keep the device screen awake, i.e. prevent the screen from sleeping on Android, iOS, and web.
The plugin allows you to enable and toggle the screen wakelock on Android, iOS, and web, which
prevents the screen from turning off automatically.
Essentially, this allows you to keep the device awake, i.e. prevent the device from sleeping.
Usage #
To use this plugin, follow the installing guide.
Implementation #
Everything in this plugin is controlled via the Wakelock
class.
If you want to enable the wakelock, i.e. keep the device awake, you can simply call Wakelock.enable
and to disable it again, you can use Wakelock.disable
:
import 'package:wakelock/wakelock.dart';
// ...
// The following line will enable the Android and iOS wakelock.
Wakelock.enable();
// The next line disables the wakelock again.
Wakelock.disable();
For more advanced usage, you can pass a bool
to Wakelock.toggle
to enable or disable the wakelock and also retrieve the current wakelock status using
Wakelock.isEnabled
:
import 'package:wakelock/wakelock.dart';
// ...
// The following lines of code toggle the wakelock based on a bool value.
bool enable = true;
// The following statement enables the wakelock.
Wakelock.toggle(enable: enable);
enable = false;
// The following statement disables the wakelock.
Wakelock.toggle(enable: enable);
// If you want to retrieve the current wakelock status,
// you will have to be in an async scope
// to await the Future returned by `enabled`.
bool wakelockEnabled = await Wakelock.enabled;
If you want to wait for the wakelock toggle to complete (which takes an insignificant amount of
time), you can also await
any of Wakelock.enable
, Wakelock.disable
, and Wakelock.toggle
.
