@jigrawesome-team/jigra-android-foreground-service

Jigra plugin to run a foreground service on Android.

Installation

Android

This API requires the following permissions be added to your AndroidManifest.xml before or after the application tag:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" />
<!-- Required to request the manage overlay permission -->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW" />

Attention: Replace FOREGROUND_SERVICE_LOCATION with the foreground service types you want to use (see Foreground service types).

You also need to add the following receiver and service inside the application tag in your AndroidManifest.xml:

<receiver android:name="io.jigrawesome.jigrajs.plugins.foregroundservice.NotificationActionBroadcastReceiver" />
<service android:name="io.jigrawesome.jigrajs.plugins.foregroundservice.AndroidForegroundService" android:foregroundServiceType="location" />

Attention: Replace location with the foreground service types you want to use (see Foreground service types).

Configuration
