appdynamics_agent

AppDynamics Flutter Plugin

Extension of the AppDynamics SDK that allows you to instrument Flutter apps and receive analytics.

This plugin wraps the native SDKs and requires a valid AppDynamics mobile license.

Features

The Flutter agent incorporates the following features:

• Network request tracking via the TrackedHTTPClient and RequestTracker classes.
• Automatic crash reporting and CrashReportCallback for extra crash report configuration.
• Screen tracking via NavigationObserver and WidgetTracker.
• Automatic detection and reporting of the app-is-not-responding cases (ANR).
• SessionFrame mechanism to track custom user flows in the app.
• Errors and custom metrics reporting.
• Automatic capture of screenshots and user touch-points (iOS only).
• Custom user data on network requests, crash reports, or sessions.
• Report breadcrumbs to track UI widgets or custom user interactions.
• Timers to track events that span across multiple methods.
• Mark method execution as info points.
• Split app instrumentation into multiple sessions.
• Automatically report device metrics (memory, storage, battery) and connection transition events.

Getting started

Installation

You can install the Flutter plugin via flutter — more info on the Installation tab.

$ flutter pub add appdynamics_agent

Extra configuration for Android apps:

1. Add the following changes to android/build.gradle:

    // ... other dependencies
}

2. Apply the adeum plugin to the bottom of the android/app/build.gradle file:

dependencies {
    // ... project dependencies
}

// Bottom of file
apply plugin: 'adeum'

3. Add the following permissions to your AndroidManifest.xml (usually in android/src/main/):

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.example.myawesomepackage">

    <!-- add these two permissions -->
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />

    <!-- other permissions -->

    <application>
        <!-- other settings -->

</manifest>

Start instrumentation

NOTE: Replace <EUM_APP_KEY> with your app key.

import 'package:appdynamics_agent/appdynamics_agent.dart';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

Future<void> main() async {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();

  final config = AgentConfiguration(
      appKey: "<EUM_APP_KEY>",
      loggingLevel: LoggingLevel.verbose, // optional, for better debugging.
      collectorURL: "<COLLECTOR_URL>", // optional, mostly on-premises. 
      screenshotURL: "<SCREENSHOT_URL>" // optional, mostly on-premises.
  );
  await Instrumentation.start(config);

  runApp(const MyApp());
}
