Package Overview

Package selection guidance compiled from public package information, community data, and project usage.

The bluetoothadapter package is a Flutter plugin that provides access to Bluetooth adapter functionalities on Android devices. It enables developers to check Bluetooth status, enable or disable Bluetooth, and retrieve adapter information. Designed specifically for Android, it offers a straightforward API to interact with the device's Bluetooth hardware, making it ideal for apps requiring low-level Bluetooth control. The plugin does not support iOS, limiting its use to Android-only applications. It integrates seamlessly with Flutter projects via pub.dev.

Use cases

  • Enabling/disabling Bluetooth programmatically
  • Checking Bluetooth adapter status
  • Integrating Bluetooth features in Android-only apps
  • Developing IoT device connectivity solutions
  • Creating Bluetooth-based proximity detection systems

Key features

  • Android-only compatibility
  • Simple API for Bluetooth adapter control
  • Supports enabling and disabling Bluetooth
  • Provides adapter information and status
  • Lightweight and easy to integrate

Suitable for

  • Android-focused mobile app developers
  • IoT application creators
  • Bluetooth-enabled device integrators
  • Apps requiring direct Bluetooth management
  • Projects without iOS support

Considerations

  • Not compatible with iOS platforms
  • Limited to Android Bluetooth adapter features
  • Requires Android-specific permissions
  • No support for advanced Bluetooth LE operations
  • Dependent on device manufacturer implementations

bluetoothadapter

A Flutter plugin to expose the features of Bluetooth Adapter for Android only.

Objective

The primary purpose of this project was to communicate between flutter and Rasburry Pie using Bluetooth.

Main Features

  • Setting up a UUID from user end.
  • Checking Bluetooth connection status and giving alerts if its off or not right.
  • Getting list of paired devices.
  • Get a particular paired device info.
  • Start Bluetooth server.
  • Start Bluetooth client.
  • Start Bluetooth client.
  • Send message to a connected device.
  • Stream for listening to received messages.
  • Stream for listening to connection status (CONNECTED, CONNECTING, CONNECTION FAILED, LISTENING, DISCONNECTED).
Getting Started

For a full example please check /example folder. Here are only the most important parts of the code to illustrate how to use the library.

//Initiatinng the bluetooth adapter
Bluetoothadapter flutterbluetoothadapter = Bluetoothadapter();

//Listening to the connection status listener
String _connectionStatus = "NONE";
StreamSubscription _btConnectionStatusListener =flutterbluetoothadapter.connectionStatus().listen((dynamic status) {
  setState(() {
    _connectionStatus = status.toString();
  });
});

//Listening to the recieved messages
String _recievedMessage;
StreamSubscription _btReceivedMessageListener = flutterbluetoothadapter.receiveMessages().listen((dynamic newMessage) {
  setState(() {
    _recievedMessage = newMessage.toString();
  });
});
Getting paired devices
List<BtDevice> devices = await flutterbluetoothadapter.getDevices();
Getting paired device
await flutterbluetoothadapter.getDevice(deviceAddress);
Starting BT server
await flutterbluetoothadapter.startServer();
Starting BT client
flutterbluetoothadapter.startClient(devices.indexOf(element), true);
Sending message
flutterbluetoothadapter.sendMessage(messageString);
Check BT connection
await flutterbluetoothadapter.checkBluetooth(); //returns bool
Set UUID
flutterbluetoothadapter.initBlutoothConnection(uuid);
