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
# 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");
LoginState loginState = LoginState.LOGGED_OUT;
boolean doNotShowPreChatForm = true;
/**
* if the application doesn't need to show the pre-chat form then needs to set as
* loginState = LoginState.LOGGED_IN
*/
if (doNotShowPreChatForm)
loginState = LoginState.LOGGED_IN;
//Creating visitor info
VisitorInfo visitorInfo = new VisitorInfo.Builder()
.name("your name")
.email("your@email.com")
.phoneNumber("your number")
.appLoginState(loginState)
.build();
//Set visitor info
ReveChat.setVisitorInfo(visitorInfo);
//Optional
//If want to Receive push notification from Reve Chat.
//Add your device token id(registration Id)
//You also need to do step 4.
ReveChat.setDeviceTokenId("deviceTokenId");
//starting chat window
startActivity(new Intent(this, ReveChatActivity.class));
Code for KOTLIN
//Initializing with account id
ReveChat.init("account id")
var loginState : LoginState = LoginState.LOGGED_OUT
var doNotShowPreChatForm = true
/**
* if the application doesn't need to show the pre-chat form then needs to set as
* loginState = LoginState.LOGGED_IN
*/
if (doNotShowPreChatForm)
loginState = LoginState.LOGGED_IN
//Creating visitor info
val visitorInfo: VisitorInfo = VisitorInfo.Builder()
.name("your name")
.email("your@email.com")
.phoneNumber("your number")
.appLoginState(loginState)
.build()
//Set visitor info
ReveChat.setVisitorInfo(visitorInfo)
//Optional
//If want to Receive push notification from Reve Chat.
//Add your device token id(registration Id)
//You also need to do step 4.
ReveChat.setDeviceTokenId("deviceTokenId")
//starting chat window
startActivity(Intent(this, ReveChatActivity::class.java))
