getInitialSharedMedia don't works

[Reymai]

Hi! In my code didn't work getInitialSharedMedia function. I can get shared media by the sharedMediaStream, but initial shared media I can't get.

share handler:

import 'dart:async';
import 'dart:developer';

import 'package:share_handler/share_handler.dart';

abstract class IShareToHandler {
  Future<void> initPlatformState();
  SharedMedia? get sharedMedia;
  Stream<SharedMedia> get sharedMediaStream;
}

class ShareToHandler implements IShareToHandler {
  SharedMedia? _sharedMedia;
  final StreamController<SharedMedia> _sharedMediaStreamController =
      StreamController();

  ShareToHandler() {
    initPlatformState();
  }

  @override
  Future<void> initPlatformState() async {
    final handler = ShareHandlerPlatform.instance;
    _sharedMedia = await handler.getInitialSharedMedia();

    handler.sharedMediaStream.listen((SharedMedia media) {
      log('Shared media: ${media.toString()}');
      _sharedMedia = media;
      _sharedMediaStreamController.add(media);
    });
  }

  @override
  SharedMedia? get sharedMedia => _sharedMedia;
  @override
  Stream<SharedMedia> get sharedMediaStream =>
      _sharedMediaStreamController.stream.asBroadcastStream();
}

main:

final getIt = GetIt.I;

Future<void> singletonRegister() async {
  getIt.registerSingleton<IShareToHandler>(ShareToHandler());
  // ...
}

Future<void> bootstrap() async {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
  // ...
  singletonRegister();
  getIt.get<IShareToHandler>().initPlatformState();
}

void main() async {
  await bootstrap();
  runApp(
    MainApp(),
  );
}

You mean initPlatformState? It calls in main in bootstrap function. In initPlatformState calls getInitialSharedMedia too, but it's return null. It's return null when start application on "cold" without sharing, when start application on "cold" by sharing something to app, and, obviously, null, when share something in app, when app already is running

I re-installed the plugin to get more information before replying, and now it works as expected. only thing I did different was use default instead of custom group id.

Closing this as it seems to be an mis-configuration issue. If you still have questions, feel free to reopen with more details.
