image_gallery_saver_plus
An updated plugin enables users to download and save images and videos directly to their gallery, with enhanced performance, improved media organization features, and better compatibility across various devices.
Usage
To use this plugin, add image_gallery_saver_plus as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file. For example:
dependencies:
image_gallery_saver_plus: ^5.1.1
iOS
Your project need create with swift. Add the following keys to your Info.plist file, located in
<key>NSPhotoLibraryAddUsageDescription</key>
<string>We need permission to save photos and videos to your library for your convenience.</string>
<key>NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription</key>
<string>We need permission to access your photo library to view and select your photos and videos.</string>
Android
You need to ask for storage permission to save an image to the gallery. You can handle the storage permission using flutter_permission_handler. In Android version 10, Open the manifest file and add this line to your application tag
<application android:requestLegacyExternalStorage="true" .....>
API
ImageGallerySaverPlus.saveImage(...)
Save raw image bytes to the gallery.
| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
imageBytes |
Uint8List |
required | The image bytes to save. |
quality |
int |
80 |
JPEG compression quality (0–100). |
name |
String? |
null |
Optional file name. |
isReturnImagePathOfIOS |
bool |
false |
Return the saved file path on iOS. |
creationDate |
DateTime? |
null |
iOS only. Sets the asset's creation date shown in Photos. See below. |
ImageGallerySaverPlus.saveFile(...)
Save a PNG/JPG/JPEG image or a video file to the gallery.
| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
file |
String |
required | Path to the local file to save. |
name |
String? |
null |
Optional file name. |
isReturnPathOfIOS |
bool |
false |
Return the saved file path on iOS. |
creationDate |
DateTime? |
null |
iOS only. Sets the asset's creation date shown in Photos (works for both images and videos). See below. |
Setting the creation date (iOS)
By default the gallery stamps saved media with the current date/time. Pass a
creationDate to control the date that Photos displays for the asset — useful
when re-saving media that was originally captured at an earlier time (e.g.
downloaded backups, imported memories).
final result = await ImageGallerySaverPlus.saveImage(
imageBytes,
quality: 80,
name: "my_photo",
creationDate: DateTime(2020, 1, 1),
);
final result = await ImageGallerySaverPlus.saveFile(
savePath,
creationDate: DateTime.parse("2020-01-01T10:30:00"),
);
Notes:
- iOS only. On iOS, providing a
creationDateimports the asset throughPHPhotoLibraryso the date is honored. When it isnull, the legacy save path is used and the asset gets the current date. - On Android the parameter is accepted but currently ignored; the asset keeps the date it is saved.
Example
Saving an image from the internet, quality and name is option
_saveLocalImage() async {
RenderRepaintBoundary boundary =
_globalKey.currentContext!.findRenderObject() as RenderRepaintBoundary;
ui.Image image = await boundary.toImage();
ByteData? byteData =
await (image.toByteData(format: ui.ImageByteFormat.png));
if (byteData != null) {
final result =
await ImageGallerySaverPlus.saveImage(byteData.buffer.asUint8List());
print(result);
}
}
_saveNetworkImage() async {
var response = await Dio().get(
"https://ss0.baidu.com/94o3dSag_xI4khGko9WTAnF6hhy/image/h%3D300/sign=a62e824376d98d1069d40a31113eb807/838ba61ea8d3fd1fc9c7b6853a4e251f94ca5f46.jpg",
options: Options(responseType: ResponseType.bytes));
final result = await ImageGallerySaverPlus.saveImage(
Uint8List.fromList(response.data),
quality: 60,
name: "hello");
print(result);
}
Saving file(ig: video/gif/others) from the internet
_saveNetworkGifFile() async {
var appDocDir = await getTemporaryDirectory();
String savePath = appDocDir.path + "/temp.gif";
String fileUrl =
"https://hyjdoc.oss-cn-beijing.aliyuncs.com/hyj-doc-flutter-demo-run.gif";
await Dio().download(fileUrl, savePath);
final result =
await ImageGallerySaverPlus.saveFile(savePath, isReturnPathOfIOS: true);
print(result);
}
_saveNetworkVideoFile() async {
var appDocDir = await getTemporaryDirectory();
String savePath = appDocDir.path + "/temp.mp4";
String fileUrl =
"https://s3.cn-north-1.amazonaws.com.cn/mtab.kezaihui.com/video/ForBiggerBlazes.mp4";
await Dio().download(fileUrl, savePath, onReceiveProgress: (count, total) {
print((count / total * 100).toStringAsFixed(0) + "%");
});
final result = await ImageGallerySaverPlus.saveFile(savePath);
print(result);
}
