Url to APK in Flutter
In flutter we can easily convert Web Url to APK , below are the steps which execute smoothly:
Step 1: Add package in your project pubspec.yaml file
webview_flutter: 3.0.4
Step 2 : Now Update the main.dart file and add Url, here in this we are using researchthinker.com, you can use own url
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:webview_flutter/webview_flutter.dart';
import 'package:permission_handler/permission_handler.dart';
import 'dart:async';
void main() {
runApp(MyApp());
}
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
debugShowCheckedModeBanner: false,
theme: ThemeData(
primarySwatch: Colors.blue,
),
home: SplashScreen(),
);
}
}
class SplashScreen extends StatefulWidget {
@override
_SplashScreenState createState() => _SplashScreenState();
}
class _SplashScreenState extends State<SplashScreen> {
@override
void initState() {
super.initState();
_navigateToNextScreen();
}
Future<void> _navigateToNextScreen() async {
await Future.delayed(Duration(seconds: 2)); // Duration of the splash screen
Navigator.pushReplacement(
context,
MaterialPageRoute(builder: (context) =>
WebViewScreen()
),
);
}
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
backgroundColor: Colors.white,
body: Center(
child: Image.asset('assets/splashIcon.png'), // Incase you want splash screen
),
);
}
}
class WebViewScreen extends StatefulWidget {
const WebViewScreen({Key? key}) : super(key: key);
@override
State<WebViewScreen> createState() => _WebViewScreenState();
}
class _WebViewScreenState extends State<WebViewScreen> {
late WebViewController _controller;
bool _isLoading = true;
final _key = UniqueKey();
@override
void initState() {
super.initState();
}
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
body: Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.fromLTRB(0, 0, 0, 0),
child: Stack(
children: [
WebView(
key: _key,
initialUrl:'https://researchthinker.com', // Adding a unique query parameter
javascriptMode: JavascriptMode.unrestricted,
zoomEnabled: true,
onWebViewCreated: (controller) async {
_controller = controller;
await _controller.clearCache();
_controller.reload(); // Reload the page to ensure fresh content
},
onProgress: (progress) {
print("Progress: $progress%");
},
onPageFinished: (url) {
setState(() {
_isLoading = false;
});
},
onWebResourceError: (error) {
if (error.errorCode == -2 || error.errorType == WebResourceErrorType.connect) {
_controller.reload(); // Reload on error
}
setState(() {
_isLoading = false;
});
ScaffoldMessenger.of(context).showSnackBar(
SnackBar(content: Text('Failed to load page: ${error.description}')),
);
},
),
if (_isLoading)
const Center(
child: CircularProgressIndicator(),
),
],
),
),
);
}
}
