Quick start guide

This guide is designed to get you up and running with Mobile Messaging SDK plugin for Flutter

1. Make sure to setup application at the Infobip portal, if you haven't already.

2. Add MobileMessaging plugin to dependencies at pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  infobip_mobilemessaging: '^6.1.0'

3. Run flutter pub get to install plugin

4. Configure platforms

   • iOS

     1. Update the ios/Podfile with iOS deployment target platform 12.0 - platform :ios, '12.0' if needed, and perform in Terminal cd ios && pod update
     2. Import MobileMessaging @import MobileMessaging; and add [MobileMessagingPluginApplicationDelegate install]; into <ProjectName>/ios/Runner/AppDelegate.m (this is required for OS callbacks such as didRegisterForRemoteNotifications to be intercepted by native MobileMessaging SDK) :

            ...
            @import MobileMessaging;
     
            @implementation AppDelegate
     
            - (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
            {
                ...
                [MobileMessagingPluginApplicationDelegate install];
                ...
            }
            ...

     expand to see Swift code

              import MobileMessaging
              ...
              @UIApplicationMain
              @objc class AppDelegate: FlutterAppDelegate {
                override func application(
                   _ application: UIApplication,
                   didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?
                 ) -> Bool {
                    ...
                    MobileMessagingPluginApplicationDelegate.install()
                    ...
                 }
               }
              ...

     3. Configure your project to support Push Notification as described in item 2 of iOS integration quick start guide
     4. Integrate Notification Service Extension into your app in order to obtain:
        • more accurate processing of messages and delivery stats
        • support of rich notifications on the lock screen

   • Android

     1. Add 'com.google.gms:google-services' to android/build.gradle file

     buildscript {
        ...
        dependencies {
            ...
           //Google Services gradle plugin
           classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.10'
        }
     }

     2. Add apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services' at the end of your android/app/build.gradle in order to apply Google Services Gradle Plugin
     3. Setup Firebase for your project and add a Firebase configuration file (google-services.json) to the app as described in Firebase documentation. Usually it needs to be added into android/app folder.

     Notice

     If you want to provide the Firebase configuration differently, check Applying Firebase configuration

     Notice

     Starting from Android 13, Google requires to ask user for notification permission. Follow this guide to make a permission request.

5. Use plugin in your Dart code:

   import 'package:infobip_mobilemessaging/infobip_mobilemessaging.dart';
   import 'package:infobip_mobilemessaging/models/configurations/configuration.dart';
   import 'package:infobip_mobilemessaging/models/library_event.dart';
   
   ...
   
       await InfobipMobilemessaging.init(Configuration(
         applicationCode: '<Your app code>',
         iosSettings: IOSSettings(
           notificationTypes: ['alert', 'badge', 'sound'],
           logging: true
         )
       ));
   
       InfobipMobilemessaging.on(LibraryEvent.messageReceived, (Message event) => {
          print('Callback. messageReceived event,  message text: ${event.body}')
       });
   
   ...
