Create local port

Use LocalPort.create() method to create a local port.

String portName = 'servicePort';
LocalPort localPort = await LocalPort.create(portName);

To register callback to be called when message arrives to the local port, use LocalPort.register() method.

void onMessage(Object message, [RemotePort remotePort]) {
  // Handle the received message.
}
...
localPort.register(onMessage);

Use LocalPort.unregister() to unregister port when it is no longer needed.

localPort.unregister();

String portName = 'servicePort';
String remoteAppId = 'remote.app.id';
RemotePort remotePort = await RemotePort.connect(remoteAppId, portName);
