Audience List

This documentation guides you through using the core component of the AtomicXCore SDK, LiveCoreWidget, to quickly build a basic live streaming app with host broadcasting and audience viewing functionality.

Core Features

LiveCoreWidget is a lightweight widget built for live streaming scenarios. As the foundation of your live streaming implementation, it abstracts away the complexities of streaming, co-hosting, and audio and video rendering. Use LiveCoreWidget as the video canvas for your live stream, so you can focus on building your UI and interactive features.
The image below shows how LiveCoreWidget fits into the live streaming interface:


Preparations

Step 1: Activate the Service

See Activate the Service to obtain either the trial or paid version of the SDK. Then, go to the Console for application management, and get the following:
SDKAppID: Application identifier (required). TRTC uses SDKAppID for billing and details.
SDKSecretKey: Application secret key.


Step 2: Import AtomicXCore into Your Project

1. Install the SDK: Add the atomic_x_core dependency in your pubspec.yaml file and execute flutter pub get.
dependencies:
  atomic_x_core: ^3.6.0
2. Configure project permissions: Both Android and iOS projects require configuration.
Android
iOS
Add camera and microphone permissions to your android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml file.
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />
Add camera and microphone usage descriptions to your app’s Podfile in the iOS directory and to the Info.plist file in the ios/Runner directory.
Podfile:
post_install do |installer|
  installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
    flutter_additional_ios_build_settings(target)
      target.build_configurations.each do |config|
          config.build_settings['GCC_PREPROCESSOR_DEFINITIONS'] ||= [
        '$(inherited)',
        'PERMISSION_MICROPHONE=1',
        'PERMISSION_CAMERA=1',
        ]
      end
  end
end
Info.plist:
<key>NSCameraUsageDescription</key>
<string>TUILiveKit needs to access your camera permission. Video recording with picture only after enabling.</string>
<key>NSMicrophoneUsageDescription</key>
<string>TUILiveKit needs to access your mic permission. Recorded video will have sound when enabled.</string>


Step 3: Implement Login Logic

Call LoginStore.shared.login in your project to log in. This is the key premise for using all functions of AtomicXCore.
Important:
It is recommended to call LoginStore.shared.login after successful log-in to your App's user account to ensure clear and consistent business logic.
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:atomic_x_core/atomicxcore.dart';

void main() async {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();

  final result = await LoginStore.shared.login(
    sdkAppID: 1400000001,           // replace with your sdkAppID
    userID: "test_001",             // replace with your userID
    userSig: "xxxxxxxxxxx",         // replace with your userSig
  );

  if (result.isSuccess) {
    debugPrint("login success");
  } else {
    debugPrint("login failed code: ${result.errorCode}, message: ${result.errorMessage}");
  }

  runApp(const MyApp());
}
Login API parameters:
Parameter
Type
Note
sdkAppID
int
Your application identifier, which can be obtained from TRTC console.
userID
String
The unique ID for the current user.
Only letters, numbers, hyphens, and underscores are allowed.
To avoid login conflicts across devices, do not use simple IDs like 1, 123, etc.
userSig
String
Credential for TRTC authentication. Please note:
In development environment: You can use the local GenerateTestUserSig.genTestSig function to generate a UserSig or generate a temporary UserSig via the UserSig Generation Tool.
In production environment: To prevent SecretKey leakage, always generate UserSig on your server. For details, see Generating UserSig on the Server.

Building a Basic Live Room

Step 1: Host Video Streaming Setup

Follow these steps to quickly set up host video streaming:

Note:
For a complete host streaming implementation, see live_room_anchor_widget.dart in the TUILiveKit open-source project.
1. Initialize Host Streaming View
On your host page, create a LiveCoreWidget instance and control the live stream behavior through LiveCoreController.
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:atomic_x_core/atomicxcore.dart';

/// YourAnchorPage represents your anchor starts live streaming page
class YourAnchorPage extends StatefulWidget {
  final String liveId;

  const YourAnchorPage({super.key, required this.liveId});

  @override
  State<YourAnchorPage> createState() => _YourAnchorPageState();
}

class _YourAnchorPageState extends State<YourAnchorPage> {
  // 1. Create a LiveCoreController instance
  late final LiveCoreController _controller;

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();
    // 2. Initialize the controller
    _controller = LiveCoreController.create();
    // 3. Set up live streaming ID
    _controller.setLiveID(widget.liveId);
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: Stack(
        children: [
          // 4. Load the broadcaster stream page to your view
          LiveCoreWidget(controller: _controller),
          // Your other UI components
        ],
      ),
    );
  }
}
2. Turn on the camera and microphone
Call DeviceStore.shared.openLocalCamera and DeviceStore.shared.openLocalMicrophone to enable the camera and microphone. LiveCoreWidget will automatically preview the camera video stream:
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:atomic_x_core/atomicxcore.dart';

/// YourAnchorPage represents your anchor starts live streaming page
class YourAnchorPage extends StatefulWidget {
  final String liveId;

  const YourAnchorPage({super.key, required this.liveId});

  @override
  State<YourAnchorPage> createState() => _YourAnchorPageState();
}

class _YourAnchorPageState extends State<YourAnchorPage> {
  late final LiveCoreController _controller;

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();
    _controller = LiveCoreController.create();
    _controller.setLiveID(widget.liveId);
    // Turn on the device
    _openDevices();
  }

  void _openDevices() {
    // 1. Open front camera
    DeviceStore.shared.openLocalCamera(true);
    // 2. Turn on the microphone
    DeviceStore.shared.openLocalMicrophone();
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: Stack(
        children: [
          LiveCoreWidget(controller: _controller),
        ],
      ),
    );
  }
}
3. Start live streaming
By calling the LiveListStore createLive API to start video live streaming:
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:atomic_x_core/atomicxcore.dart';

/// YourAnchorPage represents your anchor starts live streaming page
class YourAnchorPage extends StatefulWidget {
  final String liveId;

  const YourAnchorPage({super.key, required this.liveId});

  @override
  State<YourAnchorPage> createState() => _YourAnchorPageState();
}

class _YourAnchorPageState extends State<YourAnchorPage> {
  late final LiveCoreController _controller;

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();
    _controller = LiveCoreController.create();
    _controller.setLiveID(widget.liveId);
    _openDevices();
  }

  void _openDevices() {
    DeviceStore.shared.openLocalCamera(true);
    DeviceStore.shared.openLocalMicrophone();
  }

  // Call the go live API to start live streaming
  Future<void> _startLive() async {
    // 1. Prepare the LiveInfo object
    final liveInfo = LiveInfo(
      // Set up live streaming room id
      liveID: widget.liveId,
      // Set up live streaming room name
      liveName: "test live stream",
      // Configure the layout template, default: 600 dynamic grid layout
      seatLayoutTemplateID: 600,
      // Configure the anchor to always stay on the seat
      keepOwnerOnSeat: true,
    );

    // 2. Call LiveListStore.shared.createLive to start live streaming
    final result = await LiveListStore.shared.createLive(liveInfo);

    if (result.isSuccess) {
      debugPrint("startLive success");
    } else {
      debugPrint("startLive error: ${result.errorMessage}");
    }
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: Stack(
        children: [
          LiveCoreWidget(controller: _controller),
          // Go live button
          Positioned(
            bottom: 50,
            left: 0,
            right: 0,
            child: Center(
              child: ElevatedButton(
                onPressed: _startLive,
                child: const Text('Start live broadcast'),
              ),
            ),
          ),
        ],
      ),
    );
  }
}

4. End live streaming
When the live stream ends, call LiveListStore.shared.endLive to stop streaming and close the room. The SDK will handle cleanup automatically.
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:atomic_x_core/atomicxcore.dart';

/// YourAnchorPage represents your anchor starts live streaming page
class YourAnchorPage extends StatefulWidget {
  final String liveId;

  const YourAnchorPage({super.key, required this.liveId});

  @override
  State<YourAnchorPage> createState() => _YourAnchorPageState();
}

class _YourAnchorPageState extends State<YourAnchorPage> {
  // ... Other code ...

  End live streaming
  Future<void> _stopLive() async {
    final result = await LiveListStore.shared.endLive();

    if (result.isSuccess) {
      debugPrint("endLive success");
    } else {
      debugPrint("endLive error: ${result.errorMessage}");
    }
  }

  // ... Other code ...
}

Step 2: Audience Room Entry and Viewing

Enable audience live viewing with these steps:

Note:
For a complete audience implementation, see audience_widget.dart in the TUILiveKit open-source project.
1. Audience Streaming Page
On your audience page, create a LiveCoreWidget instance and control the live stream behavior through LiveCoreController.
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:atomic_x_core/atomicxcore.dart';

/// YourAudiencePage represents your audience viewing webpage
class YourAudiencePage extends StatefulWidget {
  final String liveId;

  const YourAudiencePage({super.key, required this.liveId});

  @override
  State<YourAudiencePage> createState() => _YourAudiencePageState();
}

class _YourAudiencePageState extends State<YourAudiencePage> {
  // 1. Create a LiveCoreController instance
  late final LiveCoreController _controller;

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();
    // 2. Initialize the controller
    _controller = LiveCoreController.create();
    // 3. Bind live streaming id
    _controller.setLiveID(widget.liveId);
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: Stack(
        children: [
          // 4. Load the audience pull stream page to your view
          LiveCoreWidget(controller: _controller),
        ],
      ),
    );
  }
}
2. Join Live Room
Call LiveListStore.shared.joinLive to join the live stream. LiveCoreWidget will automatically play the video stream:
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:atomic_x_core/atomicxcore.dart';

/// YourAudiencePage represents your audience viewing webpage
class YourAudiencePage extends StatefulWidget {
  final String liveId;

  const YourAudiencePage({super.key, required this.liveId});

  @override
  State<YourAudiencePage> createState() => _YourAudiencePageState();
}

class _YourAudiencePageState extends State<YourAudiencePage> {
  late final LiveCoreController _controller;

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();
    _controller = LiveCoreController.create();
    _controller.setLiveID(widget.liveId);
    // Enter live room
    _joinLive();
  }

  Future<void> _joinLive() async {
    // Call LiveListStore.shared.joinLive to enter live room
    // - liveId: same liveId as anchor starts live streaming
    final result = await LiveListStore.shared.joinLive(widget.liveId);

    if (result.isSuccess) {
      debugPrint("joinLive success");
    } else {
      debugPrint("joinLive error: ${result.errorMessage}");
      // Failed to enter the room, must exit the page
      // if (mounted) Navigator.of(context).pop();
    }
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: Stack(
        children: [
          LiveCoreWidget(controller: _controller),
        ],
      ),
    );
  }
}
3. Leave Live Room
When the audience leaves, call LiveListStore.shared.leaveLive to exit. The SDK will stop streaming and leave the room automatically.
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:atomic_x_core/atomicxcore.dart';

/// YourAudiencePage represents your audience viewing webpage
class YourAudiencePage extends StatefulWidget {
  final String liveId;

  const YourAudiencePage({super.key, required this.liveId});

  @override
  State<YourAudiencePage> createState() => _YourAudiencePageState();
}

class _YourAudiencePageState extends State<YourAudiencePage> {
  // ... Other code ...

  End live stream
  Future<void> _leaveLive() async {
    final result = await LiveListStore.shared.leaveLive();

    if (result.isSuccess) {
      debugPrint("leaveLive success");
    } else {
      debugPrint("leaveLive error: ${result.errorMessage}");
    }
  }

  // ... Other code ...
}

Step 3: Listen for Live Events

After the audience enters the live room, you should handle passive events such as the host ending the stream or the audience being kicked out. Without event handling, the audience UI may remain on a black screen, impacting user experience.
Use LiveListListener to listen for live events:
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:atomic_x_core/atomicxcore.dart';

/// YourAudiencePage represents your audience viewing webpage
class YourAudiencePage extends StatefulWidget {
  final String liveId;

  const YourAudiencePage({super.key, required this.liveId});

  @override
  State<YourAudiencePage> createState() => _YourAudiencePageState();
}

class _YourAudiencePageState extends State<YourAudiencePage> {
  late final LiveCoreController _controller;
  // 1. Define LiveListListener to manage event monitoring
  late final LiveListListener _liveListListener;

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();
    _controller = LiveCoreController.create();
    _controller.setLiveID(widget.liveId);
    // 2. Listen to Live Event
    _setupLiveEventListener();
    // 3. Enter live room
    _joinLive();
  }

  // 4. Add a method to set up event listening
  void _setupLiveEventListener() {
    _liveListListener = LiveListListener(
      onLiveEnded: (liveID, reason, message) {
        // Listen to live streaming end
        debugPrint("Live ended. liveID: $liveID, reason: ${reason.value}, message: $message");
        // Handle the logic for exiting a live streaming room herein, such as closing current page
        // if (mounted) Navigator.of(context).pop();
      },
      onKickedOutOfLive: (liveID, reason, message) {
        // Listen to being kicked out of live stream
        debugPrint("Kicked out of live. liveID: $liveID, reason: ${reason.value}, message: $message");
        // Handle the logic for exiting a live streaming room herein
        // if (mounted) Navigator.of(context).pop();
      },
    );
    LiveListStore.shared.addLiveListListener(_liveListListener);
  }

  Future<void> _joinLive() async {
    final result = await LiveListStore.shared.joinLive(widget.liveId);
    if (result.isSuccess) {
      debugPrint("joinLive success");
    } else {
      debugPrint("joinLive error: ${result.errorMessage}");
    }
  }

  Future<void> _leaveLive() async {
    final result = await LiveListStore.shared.leaveLive();
    if (result.isSuccess) {
      debugPrint("leaveLive success");
    } else {
      debugPrint("leaveLive error: ${result.errorMessage}");
    }
  }

  @override
  void dispose() {
    // 5. Remove event listening
    LiveListStore.shared.removeLiveListListener(_liveListListener);
    super.dispose();
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: Stack(
        children: [
          LiveCoreWidget(controller: _controller),
        ],
      ),
    );
  }
}

FAQs

Why is the screen black with no video after the host calls createLive or the audience calls joinLive?

Check setLiveID: Please ensure the correct liveID has been set for the LiveCoreController instance before calling the live streaming or viewing API.
Check device permission: Please ensure the app has obtained system usage permission for the camera and microphone.
Check anchor side: Whether the Anchor side normally called DeviceStore.shared.openLocalCamera(true) to open the camera.
Check the network: Please check whether the device network connection is normal.

How to Request Permission in a Flutter Project?

You can use the permission_handler plug-in to request camera and mic permission:
import 'package:permission_handler/permission_handler.dart';

Future<void> requestPermissions() async {
  await [
    Permission.camera,
    Permission.microphone,
  ].request();
}

How to Handle Page Lifecycle in Flutter?

It is recommended to clean up resources in the dispose method, such as removing event listeners:
@override
void dispose() {
  LiveListStore.shared.removeLiveListListener(_liveListListener);
  super.dispose();
}
