MissingPluginException while using plugin for flutter

Question

I am trying to use the plugin

_launchURL(url) async {
  await launch("www.google.com");
}

I have put "www.google.com" just for debugging purposes.

The error I get is MissingPluginException :

restarting the app from ide doesn't work.

I had that problem when using image_picker: ^0.6.7+4 with flutter_facebook_login: ^3.0.0 I had to remove Facebook support from my app — Lauro Kozovits, Aug 03 '20 at 22:12

If you are using hot restart or hot reload, it won't do the trick. Since Flutter has to inject plugin dependencies into the platform-specific parts of your app, hot restart/hot reload is not enough to trigger the injection. Check this issue for more.

Close the app and execute flutter run command.

Its better to clean the run one before using the command 'flutter run'. To clean use the command 'flutter clean' – Parth Kinjal Shah Aug 31 '20 at 11:08

No need to do anything, just close the app and re-run/re-compile. It worked for me. Thanks to ask. – Kamlesh Oct 08 '20 at 11:20

@Kamlesh That's exactly what is mentioned in the last line of the solution. The first paragraph is just to explain why the exception might be occurring. – Mohit Nainwal Oct 09 '20 at 05:52

Yes, because the URL needs to be set up in native settings. so it will be done after rerunning the flutter project. – amit.flutter Feb 08 '23 at 09:43

Had problem while using flutter toast dependency and dependencies like facebook_login. I followed these steps and resolved it:

First, u need to test whether these toast and shared preference dependencies are causing problems or some other dependencies cause the problem.
For testing that, u need to create a new seprate flutter project having the same flutter toast and shared preference dependency and check now if u r able to get toasts or not.
If u r getting toast so there is no problem with ur toast dependency.
The problem might be in ur one of the social media dependency.

In my case, I followed the above steps and found that problem was in facebook dependency. Finally, I found that I did not provide details of my app at facebook developer console. So implemented that and my app was fine.

Thanks brother, you saved me, I was also struggling with same problem facebook dependency, I was amazed why the plugins are not working while they are working on the other app correctly, great!!!! — Faisal Nadeem, Dec 22 '20 at 10:42

In my case it was for the cached_network_image plugin , I have removed cached_network_image from pubspec.yaml and replaced the implementation with Image.network and the problem has disappeared

In my case, I had this problem with the image picker, then I followed the documentation and used an emulator with api 29+, it didn't work before because I was using an emulator with api 28 https://pub.dev/packages/image_picker

i think if you have already done flutter pub get on the dependency, and added all the requirements for the given platform you just have to flutter run your app
