How to wait for internet connection in flutter application?

Question

I am trying to add functionality to my app where it waits on the load screen till the internet connection is available. Is there any way I can achieve this functionality.

You can use the Flutter Favorite package called connectivity

This package has a method where you can check if

A user has an internet connection or not
Whether the user is using mobile data or Wifi

import 'package:connectivity/connectivity.dart';

var connectivityResult = await (Connectivity().checkConnectivity());

if (connectivityResult == ConnectivityResult.none) {
  // I am not connected to any network.

} else if (connectivityResult == ConnectivityResult.mobile) {
  // I am connected to a mobile network.

} else if (connectivityResult == ConnectivityResult.wifi) {
  // I am connected to a wifi network.

}
