Usage

Example

To use this plugin :

  dependencies:
    flutter:
      sdk: flutter
    audioplayer: 0.8.1
    audioplayer_web: 0.7.1
  • Instantiate an AudioPlayer instance
//...
AudioPlayer audioPlugin = AudioPlayer();
//...

Player Controls

audioPlayer.play(url);

audioPlayer.pause();

audioPlayer.stop();

Status and current position

The dart part of the plugin listen for platform calls :

//...
_positionSubscription = audioPlayer.onAudioPositionChanged.listen(
  (p) => setState(() => position = p)
);

_audioPlayerStateSubscription = audioPlayer.onPlayerStateChanged.listen((s) {
  if (s == AudioPlayerState.PLAYING) {
    setState(() => duration = audioPlayer.duration);
  } else if (s == AudioPlayerState.STOPPED) {
    onComplete();
    setState(() {
      position = duration;
    });
  }
}, onError: (msg) {
  setState(() {
    playerState = PlayerState.stopped;
    duration = new Duration(seconds: 0);
    position = new Duration(seconds: 0);
  });
});

Do not forget to cancel all the subscriptions when the widget is disposed.

iOS

⚠️ iOS App Transport Security

By default iOS forbids loading from non-https url. To cancel this restriction edit your .plist and add :

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

Background mode

cf. enable background audio

MacOS

Add this to entitlements files ( cf. DebugProfile.entitlements )

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

cf. Flutter MacOS security

Troubleshooting

  • If you get a MissingPluginException, try to flutter build apk on Android, or flutter build ios
