How to pass a message from Flutter to Native?

问题:

How would you pass info from Flutter back to Android/Native code if needed to interact with a specific API / hardware component?

Are there any Event Channels that can send info the other way or something similar to a callback?

  1. The platform_channel documentation points out "method calls can also be sent in the reverse direction, with the platform acting as client to methods implemented in Dart. A concrete example of this is the quick_actions plugin." I don't see how the native side is receiving a message from Flutter in this instance.
  2. It looks like a BasicMessageChannel’s send() method can be used to send "the specified message to the platform plugins on this channel". Can anyone provide a simple implementation example of this?

This is a simple implementation showcasing :

  1. Passing a string Value from flutter to Android code
  2. Getting back response from Android code to flutter

code is based on example from :https://flutter.io/platform-channels/#codec

1.Passing string value "text" :

String text = "whatever";

Future<Null> _getBatteryLevel(text) async {
String batteryLevel;
try {
  final String result = await platform.invokeMethod('getBatteryLevel',{"text":text}); 
  batteryLevel = 'Battery level at $result % .';
} on PlatformException catch (e) {
  batteryLevel = "Failed to get battery level: '${e.message}'.";
}

setState(() {
  _batteryLevel = batteryLevel;
});

}

2.Getting back response "batterylevel" after RandomFunction();

 public void onMethodCall(MethodCall call, MethodChannel.Result result) {
                    if (call.method.equals("getBatteryLevel")) {

                        text = call.argument("text");
                        String batteryLevel = RandomFunction(text);

                        if (batteryLevel != null) {
                            result.success(batteryLevel);
                        } else {
                            result.error("UNAVAILABLE", "Battery level not available.", null);
                        }
                    } else {
                        result.notImplemented();
                    }
                }

Hope this helps!

Yes, flutter does has an EventChannel class which is what you are looking for exactly.

Here is an example of that demonstrates how MethodChannel and EventChannel can be implemented. And this medium article shows how an EventChannel can be implemented in flutter.

Hope that helped!
