Introduction #
The Vital SDK is split into three main components: vital_core, vital_health and vital_devices.

vital_core holds common
components to both vital_health and vital_devices. Among other things, it has the network layer that allows us to
send data from a device to a server.
vital_health is an abstraction over HealthKit an Health Connect(coming soon)
vital_devices is an abstraction over a set of Bluetooth devices.

Getting Started #
iOS #
Add the following to your Info.plist file:
<key>NSBluetoothAlwaysUsageDescription</key>
<string>Our app uses bluetooth to find, connect and transfer data between different devices</string>
copied to clipboard
You will have to request the bluetooth permission in your app before using the SDK.
Android #
Add the following to your AndroidManifest.xml:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH_SCAN" android:usesPermissionFlags="neverForLocation"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH_CONNECT"/>

<!-- Request legacy Bluetooth permissions on older devices. -->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH" android:maxSdkVersion="30"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH_ADMIN" android:maxSdkVersion="30"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" android:maxSdkVersion="30"/>

You will have to request the appropriate permissions at in your app before you can call the Vital Devices SDK.
Usage #
First you have to scan for one of the supported devices. You can find the list of supported devices by
calling DeviceManager().devices.
vitalDevices.scanForDevices(deviceModel).listen((device) {
// now you have the device you were looking for
});
copied to clipboard
Depending on the type of device you are connecting to, you will have to call different methods to connect to it.
Blood pressure monitor #
vitalDevices.readBloodPressureData(scannedDevice).listen((bloodPressureSamples) {
// you will receive a list of blood pressure samples
});
copied to clipboard
Glucose meter #
vitalDevices.readGlucoseMeterData(scannedDevice).listen((glucoseSamples) {
// you will receive a list of glucose samples
});
copied to clipboard
After you have received samples depending on the type of device you might need to star scanning again to receive the
next set of samples.
