Getting Started

Initialization

Initialize the ImageBoxService at the beginning of your app:

await ImageBoxService.initialize();
ImageBoxService.setBaseUrl('https://via.placeholder.com/150/92c952');

Displaying Cached Images

To display a cached image, use CachedImage instead of Image.asset:

import 'package:catched_image/catched_image.dart';

class MyWidget extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(
        title: Text('Catched Image Example'),
      ),
      body: Center(
        child:CachedImage(imageName:'/150/92c952',
          width: 200,
          height: 200,
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}

Configuration

You can set a custom base URL for loading images:

ImageBoxService.setBaseUrl('https://my.custom.base.url');
