Alan Flutter Framework

Integrating with Alan

To integrate a Flutter app with Alan:

1. In the pubspec.yaml file of your Flutter project, add the Alan voice dependency:

   //pubspec.yaml file
   ...
   dependencies:
     flutter:
       sdk: flutter
       ...
   
     alan_voice: 2.0.13

2. Open the main.dart file and at the top of it, add the alan_voice package dependency:

   //main.dart file
   ...
   import 'package:alan_voice/alan_voice.dart';

3. In the _MyHomePageState class, add the method for initializing the Alan button:

   //main.dart file
   ...
   class _MyHomePageState extends State<MyHomePage> {
   ...
   	_MyHomePageState() {
   		//init Alan with sample project id
   		AlanVoice.addButton(
   			"",
   			buttonAlign: AlanVoice.BUTTON_ALIGN_LEFT);
   	}
   ...

4. In Alan Studio, go to Integrations, copy the value from the Alan SDK Key field and insert this value in the quotes.

   //main.dart file
   ...
   class _MyHomePageState extends State<MyHomePage> {
   ...
   	_MyHomePageState() {
   		//init Alan with sample project id
   		AlanVoice.addButton(
   			"314203787ccd9370974f1bf6b6929c1b2e956eca572e1d8b807a3e2338fdd0dc/prod",
   			buttonAlign: AlanVoice.BUTTON_ALIGN_LEFT);
   	}
   ...

That's it. Now you can run the app, tap the Alan button and start interacting with Alan.
