Flutter Cache Image

pub package

A Flutter plugin to load and cache network or firebase storage images with a retry mechanism if the download fails.

This package supports the download of images from a standard network path and from a firebase storage gs path.

Images are stored in the temporary directory of the app.

Usage

To use this plugin, add firebase_storage as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file.

dependencies:
  cache_image: "^1.0.5"

Import cache_image in a dart file:

import 'package:cache_image/cache_image.dart';

To support firebase storage download the generated google-services.json file and place it inside android/app. Next, modify the android/build.gradle file and the android/app/build.gradle file to add the Google services plugin as described by the Firebase assistant.

How to use

Cache Image can be used with any widget that support an ImageProvider.

Image(
    fit: BoxFit.cover,
    image: CacheImage('gs://your-project.appspot.com/image.png'),
),
Image(
    fit: BoxFit.cover,
    image:  CacheImage('https://hd.tudocdn.net/874944?w=646&h=284', duration: Duration(seconds: 2), durationExpiration: Duration(seconds: 10)),
),
FadeInImage(
    fit: BoxFit.cover,
    placeholder: AssetImage('assets/placeholder.png'),
    image: CacheImage('gs://your-project.appspot.com/image.jpg')
