# Flutter Notification Permissions

Package to check for and ask for Notification Permissions on iOS and Android.

## Checking Notification Permission Status

```dart

Future permissionStatus =

    NotificationPermissions.getNotificationPermissionStatus();

```

This method will return an enum with the following values:

```dart

enum PermissionStatus {

  provisional, // iOS Only

	granted,

	unknown,

	denied

}

```

In iOS, a permission is `unknown` when the user hasn’t accepted or refuse the notification permissions. In Android this state will never occur, since the permission will be `granted` by default and it will be `denied` if the user goes to the app settings and turns off notifications for the app. The `provisional` status will also offer the same behavior.

## Requesting Notification Permissions

If the `PermissionStatus` is `denied` or `unknown`, we can ask the user for the Permissions:

```dart

Future permissionStatus = NotificationPermissions.requestNotificationPermissions({NotificationSettingsIos iosSettings, bool openSettings});

```

On Android, if the permission is `denied`, this method will open the app settings.

In iOS, if the permission is `unknown` or `provisional`, it will show an alert window asking the user for the permission. On the other hand, if the permission is `denied` it has the same behaviour as Android, opening the app settings.

Also in iOS if you set `openSettings` to false settings window won't be opened. You will get `denied` status. 

`NotificationPermissions.requestNotificationPermissions` returns status after user select answer from native permission popup.

Note: if the permission is `granted`, this method will not do anything.

## iOS Error: Swift.h not found

If your project is in Objective-C, you will have to do the changes referenced in [this SO post](https://stackoverflow.com/a/53453243/4499889) in order to solve the issue:

```

'notification_permissions/notification_permissions-Swift.h' file not found

    #import 

            ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    1 error generated.

```

Add `use_frameworks!` in target Runner in your `(YOUR_PROJECT)/ios/Podfile`

```

target 'Runner' do

  use_frameworks! # Add here

```
