How to pass a message from Flutter to Native?

Question

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 c

Answer 1

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 _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!
