Introduction
This documentation shows you how to embed REVE Chat Android SDK in a Flutter based Android application and get started in a few minutes.
Necessary or minimum requirements:
Android Studio
Minimum SDK version should be 14 or above
SDK version (Compile, Build, Target) should be 26 or above
Flutter Android SDK integration process
Step 1
To integrate Flutter Android SDK with your mobile app, please follow the below mentioned steps:
Add the Flutter Android SDK URL in your Project level build gradle file’s repositories section as shown below:
If android studio version less than Android Studio Arctic Fox
In project build.gradle, you can add the repositories
allprojects {
repositories {
…
maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
maven { url 'https://maven.google.com/' }
maven {
url "https://maven.iptelephony.revesoft.com/artifactory/libs-release-local/"
}
maven {
url "https://jfrog-artifact.revechat.com/artifactory/artifactory/"
}
}
}
Otherwise
In settings.gradle, you can add the repositories
dependencyResolutionManagement {
repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.FAIL_ON_PROJECT_REPOS)
repositories {
…
maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
maven { url 'https://maven.google.com/' }
maven {
url "https://maven.iptelephony.revesoft.com/artifactory/libs-release-local/"
}
maven {
url "https://jfrog-artifact.revechat.com/artifactory/artifactory/"
}
}
}
Step 2
Add Design support library and REVE Chat Android SDK as dependency in your App level build.gradle file :
dependencies {
…
implementation('com.revesoft.revechatsdk:revechatsdk:3.2.2')
}
Note- You can also use Design support library greater then 26 also according to your project build SDK version.
Step 3
Add proguard-rules.pro. Path → /android/app/proguard-rules.pro
# Add project specific ProGuard rules here.
# By default, the flags in this file are appended to flags specified
# in E:\Android_Studio\sdk/tools/proguard/proguard-android.txt
# You can edit the include path and order by changing the proguardFiles
# directive in build.gradle.
#
# For more details, see
# http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/proguard.html
# Add any project specific keep options here:
# If your project uses WebView with JS, uncomment the following
# and specify the fully qualified class name to the JavaScript interface
# class:
#-keepclassmembers class fqcn.of.javascript.interface.for.webview {
# public *;
#}
-keep class com.revesoft.revechatsdk.** {*;}
-keep interface com.revesoft.revechatsdk.** { *; }
-keep enum com.revesoft.revechatsdk.** { *; }
-dontwarn com.revesoft.revechatsdk.**
-keep class org.webrtc.** { *; }
-keep class org.webrtc.voiceengine.** { *; }
-dontwarn org.webrtc.**
Step 4
Add following lines from where you want to start the chat. However, this step needs to be done differently for JAVA or KOTLIN in separate ways.
Code for JAVA
//Initializing with account id
ReveChat.init("account id");
//Creating visitor info
VisitorInfo visitorInfo = new VisitorInfo.Builder()
.name("your name")
.email("[email protected]")
.phoneNumber("your number")
.build();
//Set visitor info
ReveChat.setVisitorInfo(visitorInfo);
ReveChat.setAppBundleName(BuildConfig.APPLICATION_ID);
ReveChat.setAppVersionNumber(BuildConfig.VERSION_NAME);
//starting chat window
startActivity(new Intent(this, ReveChatActivity.class));
Code for KOTLIN
//Initializing with account id
ReveChat.init("account id")
//Creating visitor info
val visitorInfo: VisitorInfo = VisitorInfo.Builder()
.name("your name")
.email("[email protected]")
.phoneNumber("your number")
.build()
//Set visitor info
ReveChat.setVisitorInfo(visitorInfo)
//starting chat window
startActivity(Intent(this, ReveChatActivity::class.java))
