Getting Started

The LikeMinds Flutter Feed SDK empowers you to integrate personalized and engaging feeds into your Flutter application, enhancing user experiences and driving user engagement. This guide will walk you through the steps to get started with the LikeMinds Flutter Feed SDK and set up a dynamic feed in your application. Obtain the necessary API key from the LikeMinds dashboard.

Add Dependency​

Add likeminds_feed as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file

dependencies:
  likeminds_feed: ^latest

or you can run this command in the terminal

flutter pub add likeminds_feed

Usage​

To start using the package, import it in your main.dart file

import 'package:likeminds_feed/likeminds_feed.dart';

To initiate LikeMinds SDK in your code, use the LMFeedClientBuilder class to build an instance of the LMFeedClient class. The LMFeedClientBuilder class has a build() method that returns the LMFeedClient instance.

 // Initiate the LMFeedClient instance
final LMFeedClient lmFeedClient = (LMFeedClientBuilder()
    ..apiKey("YOUR_LM_API_KEY")
    ..sdkCallback(YOUR_CALLBACK))
    .build();
tip

Maintain this instance of the LMFeedClient class throughout your application. You can use it to access the different methods exposed by the package.

LMSDKCallback​

The LMSDKCallback class is a callback class that is used to listen to analytic events from the LikeMinds Feed package. It has 4 methods that you can override to listen to events from the package.

class YourCallback extends LMSDKCallback {
  @override
  void eventFiredCallback(String eventKey, Map<String, dynamic> propertiesMap) {
    // Implement eventFiredCallback
  }

  @override
  void loginRequiredCallback() {
    // Implement loginRequiredCallback
  }

  @override
  void logoutCallback() {
    // Implement logoutCallback
  }

  // This method is called when the user profile (tag, header) is clicked
  @override
  void profileRouteCallback({required String lmUserId}) {}
}
