flutter-tv-remote-control

To control app you only need these five button Left,Right,Top,Bottom and center for select

Basic thing to control TV remote button (You can achive this by using ShortCuts and focus)

• You need shortCut keys widget -- to determine different Intent (Like select Intent)
• Select Intent is enough to control the remote

    return Shortcuts(
      shortcuts: {
        LogicalKeySet(LogicalKeyboardKey.select): ActivateIntent(),
        // LogicalKeySet(LogicalKeyboardKey.enter): SelectIntent()
      },
      child: MaterialApp(
        title: 'Flutter Demo',

• Last thing you need focus so that your tv remote knows where to click -- For This we use a widget which have autoFocus property

   return ListView.builder(
              itemCount: 20,
              itemBuilder: (context, index) {
                return InkWell(
                  autofocus: true,    //here is autofocus
                  focusColor: Colors.green,
                  onTap: () {
                    print(index);
                    Navigator.push(
                        context,
                        MaterialPageRoute(
                          builder: (context) => Details(
                              key: Key(index.toString()),
                              data: state.todos[index].title.toString()),
                        ));
                  },

If you want to perform any specific task from these four keys that is also very simple

• visit this link to see the example to perform specific button task https://github.com/aman246149/flutter-tv-remote-control/blob/master/mysample/lib/main.dart

note-> Similar thing can be achieve by using ShortCut widget ,Actions Widget and Focus Widget and combination of all three widget is FocusDetectorWidget. But it is very hard to maintain sometime so i prefer above methods.😁😁
