- Note: Example compilable with XCode 12.2 & Flutter 1.22.4.
Ensure in your Podfile you have an entry like below declaring platform of 12.0 or above and disable BITCODE.
platform :ios, '12.0'
...
post_install do |installer|
installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
target.build_configurations.each do |config|
config.build_settings['ENABLE_BITCODE'] = 'NO'
end
end
end
Add NSCameraUsageDescription and NSMicrophoneUsageDescription to your Info.plist.
<key>NSCameraUsageDescription</key>
<string>$(PRODUCT_NAME) MyApp needs access to your camera for meetings.</string>
<key>NSMicrophoneUsageDescription</key>
<string>$(PRODUCT_NAME) MyApp needs access to your microphone for meetings.</string>
Set dependencies of build tools gradle to minimum 7.3.1:
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:7.3.1' <!-- Upgrade this -->
classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"
}
Set distribution gradle wrapper to minimum 7.4.
distributionBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
distributionPath=wrapper/dists
zipStoreBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
zipStorePath=wrapper/dists
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-7.4-bin.zip <!-- Upgrade this -->
Jitsi Meet's SDK AndroidManifest.xml will conflict with your project, namely
the application:label field. To counter that, go into
android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml
and add the tools library
and tools:replace="android:label"
to the application tag.
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="yourpackage.com"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"> <!-- Add this -->
<application tools:replace="android:label" android:name="your.application.name" android:label="My Application" android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher">
...
</application>
...
</manifest>
Update your minimum sdk version to 24 in android/app/build.gradle
defaultConfig {
applicationId "com.thorito.jitsi_meet_example"
minSdkVersion 24 // Required for Jitsi
targetSdkVersion 33
versionCode flutterVersionCode.toInteger()
versionName flutterVersionName
}
Jitsi's SDK enables proguard, but without a proguard-rules.pro file, your release apk build will be missing the Flutter Wrapper as well as react-native code. In your Flutter project's android/app/build.gradle file, add proguard support
buildTypes {
release {
// TODO: Add your own signing config for the release build.
// Signing with the debug keys for now, so `flutter run --release` works.
signingConfig signingConfigs.debug
// Add below 2 lines for proguard
minifyEnabled true
proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
}
}
Then add a file in the same directory called proguard-rules.pro. See the example app's proguard-rules.pro file to know what to paste in.
Note
If you do not create the proguard-rules.pro file, then your app will
crash when you try to join a meeting or the meeting screen tries to open
but closes immediately. You will see one of the below errors in logcat.
## App crashes ##

To implement you need to include Jitsi Js library in the index.html of web section
<script src="https://meet.jit.si/external_api.js" type="application/javascript"></script>
Example:
<body>
<!-- This script installs service_worker.js to provide PWA functionality to
application. For more information, see:
https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/primers/service-workers -->
<script>
if ('serviceWorker' in navigator) {
window.addEventListener('load', function () {
navigator.serviceWorker.register('/flutter_service_worker.js');
});
}
</script>
<script src="https://meet.jit.si/external_api.js" type="application/javascript"></script>
<script src="main.dart.js" type="application/javascript"></script>
</body>
</html>

To listen to meeting events per meeting, pass in a JitsiMeetingListener
in joinMeeting. The listener will automatically be removed when an
onConferenceTerminated event is fired.
final JitsiMeetingResponse response = await JitsiMeet.joinMeeting(
options,
listener: JitsiMeetingListener(
onOpened: () {
debugPrint("JitsiMeetingListener - onOpened");
},
onClosed: () {
debugPrint("JitsiMeetingListener - onClosed");
},

debugPrint("JitsiMeetingListener - onError: error: $error");
},

debugPrint(
"JitsiMeetingListener - onConferenceWillJoin: url: $url");
},
onConferenceJoined: (url) {
