🚀 Lightweight: No unnecessary dependencies or code bloat.

🔧 Easy to Integrate: Add to your project and start using in seconds.

🏁 Getting Started #

To use this plugin in your project, add info_getter as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file.

  info_getter: ^1.0.0 

Then, run flutter pub get in your terminal to install the package.

Usage #

Using the package is straightforward. Import the library and call the static method InfoGetter.getAppVersion() wherever you need it. It returns a Future<String?>, so you'll need to use async/await or .then().

Here is a typical example of fetching the version in a StatefulWidget and displaying it.

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
// 1. Import the package
import 'package:info_getter/info_getter.dart';

class VersionDisplayWidget extends StatefulWidget {
  const VersionDisplayWidget({super.key});

  @override
  State<VersionDisplayWidget> createState() => _VersionDisplayWidgetState();
}

class _VersionDisplayWidgetState extends State<VersionDisplayWidget> {
  String _appVersion = 'Loading version...';

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();
    _fetchAppVersion();
  }

  Future<void> _fetchAppVersion() async {
    // 2. Call the static method
    final String? version = await InfoGetter.getAppVersion();

    // 3. Update the state to display the version
    if (mounted) {
      setState(() {
        _appVersion = version ?? 'Unknown';
      });
    }
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: Center(
        child: Text(
          'App Version: $_appVersion',
          style: Theme.of(context).textTheme.headlineMedium,
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}
