Android Photo Editor SDK quickstart

This guide demonstrates how to quickly integrate Android Photo Editor SDK into your Flutter project. The main part of an integration and customization is implemented in android directory in your Flutter project using native Android development process.

Once complete you will be able to launch photo editor in your Flutter project.

Installation

GitHub Packages is used for downloading Android Photo Editor SDK modules. First, add repositories to gradle file in allprojects section.

...

allprojects {
    repositories {
        ...

        maven {
            name = "GitHubPackages"
            url = uri("https://maven.pkg.github.com/Banuba/banuba-ve-sdk")
            credentials {
                username = "Banuba"
                password = "\u0038\u0036\u0032\u0037\u0063\u0035\u0031\u0030\u0033\u0034\u0032\u0063\u0061\u0033\u0065\u0061\u0031\u0032\u0034\u0064\u0065\u0066\u0039\u0062\u0034\u0030\u0063\u0063\u0037\u0039\u0038\u0063\u0038\u0038\u0066\u0034\u0031\u0032\u0061\u0038"
            }
        }
        maven {
            name = "ARCloudPackages"
            url = uri("https://maven.pkg.github.com/Banuba/banuba-ar")
            credentials {
                username = "Banuba"
                password = "\u0038\u0036\u0032\u0037\u0063\u0035\u0031\u0030\u0033\u0034\u0032\u0063\u0061\u0033\u0065\u0061\u0031\u0032\u0034\u0064\u0065\u0066\u0039\u0062\u0034\u0030\u0063\u0063\u0037\u0039\u0038\u0063\u0038\u0038\u0066\u0034\u0031\u0032\u0061\u0038"
            }
        }
        maven {
            name "GitHubPackagesEffectPlayer"
            url "https://maven.pkg.github.com/sdk-banuba/banuba-sdk-android"
            credentials {
                username = "sdk-banuba"
                password = "\u0067\u0068\u0070\u005f\u0033\u0057\u006a\u0059\u004a\u0067\u0071\u0054\u0058\u0058\u0068\u0074\u0051\u0033\u0075\u0038\u0051\u0046\u0036\u005a\u0067\u004f\u0041\u0053\u0064\u0046\u0032\u0045\u0046\u006a\u0030\u0036\u006d\u006e\u004a\u004a"
            }
        }

        ...
    }
}

Specify Photo Editor SDK dependencies in the app gradle file.

    def banubaPESdkVersion = '1.1.0'
    implementation "com.banuba.sdk:pe-sdk:${banubaPESdkVersion}"

    def banubaSdkVersion = '1.34.0'
    implementation "com.banuba.sdk:core-sdk:${banubaSdkVersion}"
    implementation "com.banuba.sdk:core-ui-sdk:${banubaSdkVersion}"
    implementation "com.banuba.sdk:ve-gallery-sdk:${banubaSdkVersion}"
    implementation "com.banuba.sdk:effect-player-adapter:${banubaSdkVersion}"

Additionally, make sure the following plugins are in your app gradle file.

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-android'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-parcelize'

Launch

Flutter platform channels approach is used for communication between Flutter and Android.

Set up channel message handler in your MainActivity to listen to calls from Flutter.

class MainActivity : FlutterActivity() {
    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        ...
        val appFlutterEngine = requireNotNull(flutterEngine)
        GeneratedPluginRegistrant.registerWith(appFlutterEngine)

        MethodChannel(
            appFlutterEngine.dartExecutor.binaryMessenger,
            "banubaSdkChannel"
        ).setMethodCallHandler { call, result ->
            // Handle method calls
        }
    }
}

Send startPhotoEditor message from Flutter to Android

  dynamic result = await platformChannel.invokeMethod('startPhotoEditor', LICENSE_TOKEN);

and add corresponding handler on Android side to start Photo Editor.

val licenseToken = call.arguments as String
+ val editorSDK = BanubaVideoEditor.initialize(licenseToken)

if (editorSDK == null) {
    // The SDK token is incorrect - empty or truncated
    ...
} else {
    checkSdkLicense(
        callback = { isValid ->
            if (isValid) {
                // ✅ The license is active
+                startActivityForResult(
                    PhotoCreationActivity.startFromGallery(this),
                    PHOTO_EDITOR_REQUEST_CODE
                )
            } else {
                // ❌ Use of SDK is restricted: the license is revoked or expired
                ...
            }
        },
        onError = { ... }
    )
}

❗ Important

  1. Instance editorSDK is null if the license token is incorrect. In this case you cannot use photo editor. Check your license token.
  2. It is highly recommended to check if the license is active before starting Photo Editor.
