LinkedIn GitHub

flutter_meta_sdk allows you to integration Flutter with Native Meta SDK.

This was created using the latest SDK to include support for iOS 14. The plugin currently supports app events and deeps links for iOS and Android.

Setting things up #

First of all, if you don't have one already, you must first create an app at Facebook developers: https://developers.facebook.com/

1. Get your app id (referred to as [APP_ID] below)
2. Get your client token (referred to as [CLIENT_TOKEN] below). See "Facebook Doc: Client Tokens" for more information and how to obtain it.

• Don't forget to replace [APP_ID] with your Application ID

For IOS #

For more information you can see full setup from Facebook SDK Official Read through the "Getting Started with App Events for iOS" tutuorial and in particular, follow step 5 by opening info.plist "As Source Code" and add the following

• If your code does not have CFBundleURLTypes, add the following just before the final </dict> element:

<key>CFBundleURLTypes</key>
<array>
  <dict>
  <key>CFBundleURLSchemes</key>
  <array>
    <string>fb[APP_ID]</string>
  </array>
  </dict>
</array>
<key>FacebookAppID</key>
<string>[APP_ID]</string>
<key>FacebookClientToken</key>
<string>[CLIENT_TOKEN]</string>
<key>FacebookDisplayName</key>
<string>[APP_NAME]</string>

• If your code already contains CFBundleURLTypes, insert the following:

<array>
 <dict>
 <key>CFBundleURLSchemes</key>
 <array>
   <string>fb[APP_ID]</string>
 </array>
 </dict>
</array>
<key>FacebookAppID</key>
<string>[APP_ID]</string>
<key>FacebookClientToken</key>
<string>[CLIENT_TOKEN]</string>
<key>FacebookDisplayName</key>
<string>[APP_NAME]</string>

# For Android 
For more information you can see full setup from [Facebok SDK Official](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/android/)
Read through the "[Getting Started with App Events for Android](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/app-events/getting-started-app-events-android)" tutorial and in particular, follow [step 3](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/app-events/getting-started-app-events-android#step-3--integrate-the-facebook-sdk-in-your-android-app) by adding the following into `/app/res/values/strings.xml` (or into respective `debug` or `release` build flavor)

```xml
<string name="facebook_app_id">[APP_ID]</string>
<string name="facebook_client_token">[CLIENT_TOKEN]</string>

After that, add that string resource reference to your main AndroidManifest.xml file, directly under the <application> tag.

<application android:label="@string/app_name" ...>
    ...
   	<meta-data android:name="com.facebook.sdk.ApplicationId" android:value="@string/facebook_app_id"/>
   	<meta-data android:name="com.facebook.sdk.ClientToken" android:value="@string/facebook_client_token"/>
    ...
</application>
