Introduction

The meetings polls object can be accessed using meeting.polls. It provides methods to create polls, vote, and more.

meeting.polls.items returns an array of all polls created in a meeting, where each element is an object of type Poll.

class Poll {
  final String id;
  final String question;
  final bool anonymous;
  final bool hideVotes;
  final String createdBy;
  final List<PollOption> options;
  final List<String> voted;
}

The Poll class has the following properties:

• id: Unique ID assigned to each poll.
• question: Question of the poll.
• anonymous: To hide the votes of each user even after completion. (false by default)
• hideVotes: Hide votes until the voting is complete. (enabled if anonymous is enabled)
• createdBy: Name of creator the poll.
• options: Array of PollOption object, contains all the options to the poll question.
• voted: Array of String which contains User IDs that have voted.

The type Poll represents a poll in a RealtimeKit meeting. It also contains list of PollOption which are options for a given poll. And every PollOption has list of votes inside of it. Votes are objects of class PollVote which internally has id and name of the vote.

class PollOption(
  final String text;   // Option text.
  final List<PollVote> votes;   // List of votes.
  final int count;    // Number of votes.
);

class PollVote {
  final String id;    // ID of the voter.
  final String name;  // Name of the voter.
}

Listening to new polls in a meeting

To be able to receive new poll messages you need to implement a method onPollUpdates() method from callback RtkPollsEventListener:

To get poll updates, listen to onPollUpdates() callback:

class PollEventsListener extends RtkPollsEventListener {
  @override
  void onPollUpdates(List<Poll> pollItems) {
    /// code to handle polls
  }

  @override
  void onNewPoll(Poll poll) {
    /// code to handle new poll
  }
}

You can subscribe to these events as follows:

meeting.addPollsEventListener(PollEventsListener());
