Example usage of the Flutter SDK

A brief code example of how to use the Optimizely Feature Experimentation Flutter SDK to evaluate feature flags, activate A/B tests, or feature tests.

You are ready to use the client to evaluate flag rules, including A/B tests and flag deliveries.

This example demonstrates the basic usage of each of the following concepts:

  1. Evaluate a flag with the key product_sort using the Decide method. As a side effect, the Decide function also sends a decision event to Optimizely Feature Experimentation to record that the system exposed the current user to the experiment.

  2. Execute your feature code conditionally. You have a couple of options:

  • Fetch the flag-enabled state, then check a configuration variable on the flag called sort_method. The SDK evaluates your flag rules and determines what flag variation the user is in and which sort method variable to display.
  • Fetch the flag variation, then run the 'control' or 'treatment' code.
  1. Use event tracking to track an event called purchased. This conversion event measures the impact of an experiment. Using the Track Event method, the system automatically attributes the purchase back to the running A/B test we made a decision for and the SDK sends a network request to Optimizely Feature Experimentation using the customizable event dispatcher, so Optimizely can count it on your results page.
// Initializing OptimizelyClient
var flutterSDK = OptimizelyFlutterSdk("<Your_SDK_Key>");
var response = await flutterSDK.initializeClient();
// flag decision
var user = await flutterSDK.createUserContext(userId: "user123");

var attributes = <String, dynamic>{};
attributes["logged_in"] = true;
user!.setAttributes(attributes);

var decideResponse = await user.decide("product_sort");

// did the decision fail with a critical error?
if (!decideResponse.success) {
 var reason = decideResponse.reason;
 print("decision error: $reason");
}
var decision = decideResponse.decision;
var variationKey = decision!.variationKey;

// execute code based on flag enabled state
var enabled = decision.enabled;
var variables = decision.variables;
if (enabled) {
 String vs;
 try {
   vs = variables["sort_method"] as String;
 } catch  (ex) {
   print(ex);
 }
}

// or execute code based on flag variation:
if (variationKey == "control") {
// Execute code for control variation
} else if (variationKey == "treatment") {
// Execute code for treatment variation
}

// Track an event
user.trackEvent("purchased");
