CARD91 NSDL AADHAAR SDK Flutter Implementation for Android

Card91 NSDL AADHAAR KYC Android Library Integration with Flutter Android Apps

Description

Purpose of this document is to illustrate the method to add Card91 ‘Card91AadhaarKYC’ android library to any flutter android application written in java and dart.

Card91 Card91AadhaarKYC library allows developers to launch the Card91KYCActivity activity from their application to process and complete the aadhaar XML full KYC for NSDL cards.

Developers need to launch Card91KYCActivity from their android native class on the flutter application with some required parameters mentioned below for completing the aadhaar KYC for the NSDL cards.

Note

Clean and Build the android app to get the dependencies added on to the application
And minifyEnable is true on you app build.gradle and add below line on your ProGuard rules file

-keep class com.card91.nsdlkyc.model.** { *; }

USAGE

Launch Card91KYCActivity (Aadhaar SDK) from flutter application android native module class with the help of MethodChannel (https://api.flutter.dev/flutter/services/MethodChannel-class.html)
MethodChannel is used to communicate between Dart widget and Android Native Activity Class.

First create a stateful widget on flutter application from where you want to invoke the SDK (aar class).

Declare the MethodChannel on the widget.

static const platform = MethodChannel('flutter.native/intent');

Then invoke the function of the native android activity which has been exposed with a matching key.

var dataRespForGetToken = await platform.invokeMethod('invoke_card91SDK', {  
                  'MOBILE_NUMBER': '91805**\*\***', //Should start with 91 (12 digit)  
                  'AUTH_TOKEN': "C91CHVdNSU1jWVQWxIoXWoDZgWcBAp7U5cfrE**\***",// Card holder auth token  
                  'ENV': 'PROD_SANDBOX', // "PROD_SANDBOX" for production sandbox and "PROD" for PRODUCTION environment  
                  'PAN': 'AJHPL**\*\***' /// User real PAN needs to be passed here  
                  'ORG_ID':'230901080404946ID1OID909***' ///Card org id
                });

Dart widget example from where the native android activity is called .

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter/services.dart';

class InvokeAadhaarSDK extends StatefulWidget {
  const InvokeAadhaarSDK({Key? key}) : super(key: key);

  @override
  State<InvokeAadhaarSDK> createState() => _InvokeAadhaarSDKState();
}

class _InvokeAadhaarSDKState extends State<InvokeAadhaarSDK> {
  static const platform = MethodChannel('flutter.native/intent');

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: Container(
        child: Center(
          child: ElevatedButton(
              onPressed: () async {
                var dataRespForGetToken = await platform.invokeMethod('invoke_card91SDK', {
                  'MOBILE_NUMBER': '91805******', //Should start with 91 (12 digit)
                  'AUTH_TOKEN': "C91CHVdNSU1jWVQWxIoXWoDZgWcBAp7U5cfrE*****",// Card holder auth token
                  'ENV': 'PROD_SANDBOX', // "PROD_SANDBOX" for production sandbox and "PROD" for PRODUCTION environment
                  'PAN': 'AJHPL******' /// User real PAN needs to be passed here
                  'ORG_ID':'230901080404946ID1OID909***' ///Card org id
                });
                print(
                    "dataRespForGetToken--->${dataRespForGetToken.toString()}");
              },
              child: Text("Invoke Aadhaar SDK")),
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}

After setting up the dart file with MethodChannel while calling invokeMethod with key "invoke_card91SDK", now we have to setup the listener on the MainActivity.

Then invoke the function of the native android activity MainActivity which extends FlutterFragmentActivity and has been exposed with a matching key.

In case there is following runtime exception:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{...../com.karza.aadhaarsdk.AadharActivity}: java.lang.IllegalStateException: You need to use a Theme.AppCompat theme (or descendant) with this activity.

Add a following line in AndroidManifest.xml under the application tag:

android:theme=“@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light”

INPUT PARAMETER DETAILS WHICH LAUNCHING THE SDK ACTIVITY

NameTypeRequiredDescription

DIFFERENT CALLBACK EVENTS

The events are as follows:

Event NameDescription
SUCCESSOn successful aadhaar KYC completion, developer needs to parse "bundle.getString("COMPLETE_KYC_SUCCESS")" for the same. In this scenario "KYC_RESPONSE_CODE" will comes as 00 and "COMPLETE_KYC_SUCCESS" key value will be "SUCCESS"
FAILEDOn un successful aadhaar KYC completion, developer needs to parse the key "COMPLETE_KYC_SUCCESS" from the bundle, value be "FAILED". In this scenario "KYC_RESPONSE_CODE" will not comes as 00 and detail reason will on the key "KYC_RESPONSE_DATA"
KYC_RESPONSE_DATAAPI service response body will be send back on this param
KYC_RESPONSE_CODEAPI service response code will be send back on this param
