Investigate iOS sensor implementation using the pigeon plugin and the code from flutter_sensors.

• [x] ask @Shiroen95 for the already existing demo and push your results.

Result of investigation (prerequisite: api code was generated by pigeon previously)

• to implement a sensor, first run flutter once to create the Pod file, if not existing
• open example/ios/Runner.xcworkspace where you can see the code for the example and the runner etc.
• to change the code of the plugin, go to Pods/Development Pods/sensor_demo/../../example/ios/.../ios/Classes (see here for example)
• add your classes in the Classes directory and make Plugin class to implement the interface from Pigeon (e. g. public class SwiftSensorDemoPlugin: NSObject, FlutterPlugin, FLTApi2Host {...)
• implement at least interface methods

Hint: To prevent problems (not sure whether they are or how to solve), first create api code with pigeon, afterwards open project in Xcode (so you do not need to add api files to Xcode later) and try to build to create all necessary files. Afterwards you can start coding the classes.

Conclusion:

• use experimental swift for pigeon and than demo code from flutter_sensors works

Hint:

• set version in pubspec.yml
• check, that app will be build in Release mode, if you want to have the app "permanently"
