What is geofencing? here

Geofencing

A sample geofencing plugin with background execution support for Flutter.

Getting Started

This plugin works on both Android and iOS. Follow the instructions in the following sections for the platforms which are to be targeted.

Android

No additional setup required.

iOS

Add the following lines to your Info.plist:

<dict>
    <key>NSLocationAlwaysAndWhenInUseUsageDescription</key>
    <string>YOUR DESCRIPTION HERE</string>
    <key>NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription</key>
    <string>YOUR DESCRIPTION HERE</string>
    ...

And request the correct permissions for geofencing:

<dict>
    ...
    <string>Main</string>
    <key>UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities</key>
    <array>
        <string>location-services</string>
        <string>gps</string>
        <string>armv7</string>
    </array>
    <key>UIBackgroundModes</key>
    <array>
        <string>location</string>
    </array>
    ...
</dict>

Add this line to Runner-Briding-Header.h

#import <geofencing/GeofencingPlugin.h>

At the end add this line to AppDelegate.swift

GeofencingPlugin.setPluginRegistrantCallback { (registry) in GeneratedPluginRegistrant.register(with: registry) }

Notes

Before register geofence request permissions for location and location always. You can use permission_handler package. Don't forget include this line in Podfile

post_install do |installer|
  installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
    flutter_additional_ios_build_settings(target)
    target.build_configurations.each do |config|
        config.build_settings['ENABLE_BITCODE'] = 'NO'
        config.build_settings['GCC_PREPROCESSOR_DEFINITIONS'] ||= [
          '$(inherited)',
          'PERMISSION_LOCATION=1',
        ]
      end
  end
end
