Collects data from phone's rotation vector and accelerometer, offering implementations for both Android and iOS. Integrates easily with dependency management and supports sensor availability checks.
This is a Kotlin Multiplatform library which collects data from the phone's rotation vector and accelerometer, with implementations for Android and iOS. A sample app for this library: https://github.com/ovicristurean/SensorCollectorPlayground
Steps to integrate the library:
mavenCentral is added in settings.gradle:dependencyResolutionManagement {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
}
libs.versions.toml:[versions]
sensor-collector = "0.1.4"
[libraries]
sensor-collector = { module = "io.github.ovicristurean:sensor-collector-kmp", version.ref = "sensor-collector" }
commonMain of the shared module's build.gradle.kts file of you app, add the dependency:commonMain.dependencies {
implementation(libs.sensor.collector)
}
Provide an instance of the PhoneSensorManager for android and iOS, manually or using the prefferred DI framework: AndroidPhoneSensorManager(activityContext) for Android, or IosPhoneSensorManager() for iOS.
Inject the PhoneSensorManager in the prefferred app component, for example in a ViewModel:
class SensorListViewModel(
private val phoneSensorManager: PhoneSensorManager
) : ViewModel() {
}
You can check if the sensor you want to collect is available using the isAvailable(sensorType) method.
Register for the SharedFlow that emits sensor events, and then call the registerSensor method:
viewModelScope.launch {
phoneSensorManager.rotationData.collectLatest { rotationData ->
_uiState.update { currentState ->
//update the UI
}
}
}
phoneSensorManager.registerSensor(SensorType.ROTATION_VECTOR)
Surfaced from shared tags and platforms — no rankings paid for.
