Flutter News Service Package

The Flutter News Service package is a library for interacting with NewsAPI.org. NewsAPI.org provides a service API that delivers news from various sources worldwide. With this Flutter News Service, you can filter news by keyword, source, language, and many other criteria. The news can also be sorted by publication time. Ideal for news-based applications.

Usage

import 'package:flutter_news_service/flutter_news_service.dart';

Future<void> main() async {
  var newsService = FlutterNewsService('<your-api-key>');
  
  var topHeadlines = await newsService.fetchTopHeadlines(country: 'us');
  print('Top Headlines: ${topHeadlines.articles.map((a) => a.title).toList()}');

  var everything = await newsService.fetchEverything(
      q: 'bitcoin', from: '2023-05-15', sortBy: 'publishedAt');
  print('Everything: ${everything.articles.map((a) => a.title).toList()}');

  var sources = await newsService.fetchSources(language: 'en', country: 'us');
  print('Sources: ${sources.map((s) => s.name).toList()}');
}

Replace <your-api-key> with the API key you received from NewsAPI.org.

• The fetchTopHeadlines() function will return an ArticleResponse object containing news articles of the top headlines from NewsAPI.org.
• The fetchEverything() function will return an ArticleResponse object containing news articles that meet specified criteria from NewsAPI.org.
• The fetchSources() function will return a List of Source objects from NewsAPI.org based on specified language and country parameters.
