await ReceiveIntent.setResult Not working

[sikandernoori]

Hello @daadu

I am performing Intent using below Code which works fine.

onPressed: () => android_intent.Intent()
                   ..setAction("com.packagename.MYINTENT")
                  ..startActivityForResult().then(
                    (data) {
                      print("mydata " + data.toString());
                      setState(() {
                        _scanBarcode = data.toString();
                      });
                    },
                    onError: (e) => print("error occured: " + e.toString()),
                  ),

The intent Open the App and after performing the Functionality I am calling your Plugin like below:

Future<void> _setActivityResult() async {
    await ReceiveIntent.setResult(999, data: {"sum": 123}, shouldFinish: true);
  }

After this function App Closes and I am back to parent App from where I Launched the Activity but in result the data is not being showed.
Am i missing any additional parameter ?

@sikandernoori The code snippet looks ok to me.

Can you share logs? Maybe there could be some hint.

Also if you could go through plugin code, to debug it would really help.

[daadu]

Can you confirm that the "data" in the code is what you are calling it with.

There are restriction to what "type" of data could be send, It has to be one of the following -> String, int, bool, double or another Map.

Check this function to know more -

receive_intent/android/src/main/kotlin/com/bhikadia/receive_intent/Utils.kt

Line 16 in 46d6502

fun jsonToBundle(json: JSONObject): Bundle {

I think maybe your Plugin is working Okay.

Because I am using Two Plugins.

1- https://pub.dev/packages/intent. -> To StartIntent Activity using below Code.

onPressed: () => android_intent.Intent()
                   ..setAction("com.packagename.MYINTENT")
                  ..startActivityForResult().then(
                    (data) {
                      print("mydata " + data.toString());
                      setState(() {
                        _scanBarcode = data.toString();
                      });
                    },
                    onError: (e) => print("error occured: " + e.toString()),
                  ),

This Functions open the the Intent App and in that App I am calling your plugin to send result back and finish Activity using below Code

Future<void> _setActivityResult() async {
    await ReceiveIntent.setResult(999, data: {"sum": 123}, shouldFinish: true);
  }

Now Your Plugin Does Close the App and I get back to the Main App, but in Main App the data is not received -> {"sum" : "123"} should be received but I am getting Null.

[daadu]

Which plugin are you using to call the "AcitivtyForResult" ?

[daadu]

receive_intent puts the data in "Intent.bundle", maybe that plugin maybe expecting something else in callback?

[sikandernoori]

Which plugin are you using to call the "AcitivtyForResult" ?

https://pub.dev/packages/intent

[daadu]

The code (of intent plugin) indicates, that it is looking for "Intent.data" with some specific type - filepath, URL, etc.

Check following:
https://github.com/itzmeanjan/intent/blob/7ebae1dac32058dcefa622f52ee4da354146769a/android/src/main/kotlin/io/github/itzmeanjan/intent/IntentPlugin.kt#L39-L78

While our plugin puts the data in Intent.bundle, that is why you are not getting the data in the callback.

[sikandernoori]

Can you Suggest an alternative to get this working ?

[daadu]

Opened a new issue regarding it #3. Feel free to file PR for it.

[daadu]

As of now you can wait or code #3 your self.

OR

Use linker plugin, I haven't used myself, but quick look at their code - suggests that in callback you will get "full intent", you should find the "data" in that "result.extra"

[daadu]

Also, I am incorrect above, we put "data" in Intent.extras (there is nothing like Intent.bundle!!)

[sikandernoori]

Thank You @daadu.

It seems like the best forward is to write my own plugin for StartActivityForResult after that maybe I can use your Plugin Intent for closing Activity.
