# [Whatsapp Share Plugin](https://pub.dev/packages/whatsapp_share)

[![pub package](https://img.shields.io/pub/v/whatsapp_share.svg)](https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/flutter_share)

A Flutter plugin for Android providing a simple way to share a message, link or local files to specific WhatsApp contact.

## Features:

* Share messages or link urls to specific contact.
* Share local files to specific contact.

## Installation

First, add this to your package's pubspec.yaml file:
```
dependencies:
  whatsapp_share: ^1.1.1
```

Now in your Dart code, you can use:
```
import 'package:whatsapp_share/whatsapp_share.dart';
```
## Installation (Platform Specific)

### iOS

Add if not exists one row to the `ios/podfile` after target runner:

```
...

target 'Runner' do
    use_frameworks!

...
```

### Android

If you pretends to use the file share, you need to configure the file provider, this will give access to the files turning possible to share with other applications.

Add to `AndroidManifest.xml`:

```
<application>
...
<provider
    android:name="androidx.core.content.FileProvider"
    android:authorities="${applicationId}.provider"
    android:exported="false"
    android:grantUriPermissions="true">
    <meta-data
        android:name="android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS"
        android:resource="@xml/provider_paths"/>
</provider>
</application>
```
Obs: You can change the android:name if you have an extension of file provider.

Add `res/xml/provider_paths.xml`:

```
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<paths xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <external-path name="external_files" path="."/>
</paths>
```
