Possible values: wifi, mobile, ethernet, vpn, none

String type = await InternetPermission().getConnectionType();

hasInternetPermission() → Future<bool> #

Checks if internet permissions are properly configured.

bool hasPermission = await InternetPermission().hasInternetPermission();

getPlatformVersion() → Future<String?> #

Gets the device platform version.

String? version = await InternetPermission().getPlatformVersion();

🔧 Manual Setup (If Needed) #

📱 Android (manual) #

Edit android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml:

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
    
    <application>
        <!-- ... -->
    </application>
</manifest>

🍎 iOS (manual) #

Edit ios/Runner/Info.plist:

<key>NSAppTransportSecurity</key>
<dict>
    <key>NSAllowsArbitraryLoads</key>
    <true/>
</dict>

💻 macOS (manual) #

Edit macos/Runner/DebugProfile.entitlements and Release.entitlements:

<dict>
    <key>com.apple.security.network.client</key>
    <true/>
    <key>com.apple.security.network.server</key>
    <true/>
</dict>

🧪 Testing #

In Example Project #

cd example
dart run internet_permission:setup
flutter run

In a New Project #

flutter create my_app
cd my_app
flutter pub add internet_permission
dart run internet_permission:setup
flutter run -d macos

⚠️ Important Notes #

• Backup Files — The script creates .backup files before making changes
• Repeatable — Safe to run multiple times; skips already configured platforms
• Production — For iOS/macOS, use HTTPS connections in production
• Web — CORS must be configured on your server
• Backward Compatibility — Old command setup_permissions still works

🐛 Troubleshooting #

Script Not Working? #

flutter clean
flutter pub get
dart run internet_permission:setup

Platform Missing? #

Some platforms may not exist in your project by default — this is normal.

Permissions Not Added? #

If automatic setup fails, follow the manual setup instructions above.
