firebase_storage 5.0.0-dev.2

Flutter plugin for Firebase Cloud Storage, a powerful, simple, and cost-effective object storage service for Android and iOS.

Firebase Cloud Storage for Flutter

A Flutter plugin to use the Firebase Cloud Storage API.

For Flutter plugins for other Firebase products, see README.md.

Usage

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

Logging

If you wish to see status events for your upload tasks in your logs, you should listen to the StorageUploadTask.events stream.
This could look like the following if you are using StorageReference.putData:

final StorageReference storageReference = FirebaseStorage().ref().child(path);

final StorageUploadTask uploadTask = storageReference.putData(data);

final StreamSubscription<StorageTaskEvent> streamSubscription = uploadTask.events.listen((event) {
  // You can use this to notify yourself or your user in any kind of way.
  // For example: you could use the uploadTask.events stream in a StreamBuilder instead
  // to show your user what the current status is. In that case, you would not need to cancel any
  // subscription as StreamBuilder handles this automatically.

  // Here, every StorageTaskEvent concerning the upload is printed to the logs.
  print('EVENT ${event.type}');
});

// Cancel your subscription when done.
await uploadTask.onComplete;
streamSubscription.cancel();
