# Flutter

# Introduction

This plugin provides object-oriented interfaces including full functionality of PocketPy C-API.

Run the following script to install this plugin.

flutter pub add pocketpy

# Requirements

# For Android

You may need to set the Android NDK version to "21.4.7075529" or higher in android/app/build.gradle.

android {
    ndkVersion "21.4.7075529"
}

# For iOS

It should work without any setup.

# For Web

Download an artifact from https://github.com/blueloveTH/pocketpy/releases/latest.

Unzip it and copy web/lib into your root folder where index.html locates.

...
lib/pocketpy.js
lib/pocketpy.wasm
index.html
...

Then open index.html and add this line before flutter.js tag.

...
  <!-- This script initializes WASM of pocketpy -->
  <script src="./lib/pocketpy.js"></script>

  <!-- This script adds the flutter initialization JS code -->
  <script src="flutter.js" defer></script>
...

# For Windows

VS2017 or higher is required to build the windows .dll. Make sure you have C++ component installed.

# Basic Example

import 'package:pocketpy/pocketpy.dart' as pkpy;

// Create a virtual machine
pkpy.VM vm = pkpy.VM();

// Run a script
String code = 'print("Hello World!")';
vm.exec(code);

// Read the output
var _o = vm.read_output();
print(_o.stdout)	// "Hello world!\n"
print(_o.stderr)	// ""
    
// Create a binding
vm.bind<int>("builtins", "add", (int x, int y) => x + y);
vm.eval("add(1, 2)");	// '3'

# REPL Widget Example

import 'dart:io';

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:pocketpy/pocketpy.dart' as pkpy;

void main() {
  runApp(const MaterialApp(home: MyApp()));
}

class MyApp extends StatefulWidget {
  const MyApp({super.key});

  @override
  State<MyApp> createState() => _MyAppState();
}

class _MyAppState extends State<MyApp> {
  late final pkpy.VM vm;
  late final pkpy.REPL repl;
  bool needMoreLines = false;

  final TextEditingController _controller = TextEditingController();
  final StringBuffer buffer = StringBuffer();

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();

    // create a pocketpy virtual machine
    vm = pkpy.VM();

    // create a REPL
    repl = pkpy.REPL(vm);

    WidgetsBinding.instance.addPostFrameCallback((timeStamp) {
      refresh();
    });
  }

  void addMessage(String text) {
    setState(() {
      buffer.write(text);
    });
  }

  void submitCode() {
    var text = _controller.text;
    _controller.clear();
    setState(() {
      buffer.write(needMoreLines ? '... $text' : '>>> $text\n');
    });

    needMoreLines = repl.input(text);
    refresh();
  }

  void refresh() {
    // ignore: no_leading_underscores_for_local_identifiers
    var _o = vm.read_output();
    if (_o.stdout.isNotEmpty) buffer.write(_o.stdout);
    if (_o.stderr.isNotEmpty) buffer.write(_o.stderr);
    setState(() {});
  }
