asset_cache #

asset_cache will load and cache any asset of type T given a decoder.

Since CachingAssetBundle does not cache binary data, we load and cache data ourselves.

Binary resources (from load) are not cached.

Create an asset cache by inheriting from AssetCache and give it a decoder. Or, inherit from GenericCache and override loadAsset.

asset_cache includes singletons for loading: images, json, strings and byte data.

Usage #

Add asset_cache to your pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  asset_cache:

Describe assets in your pubspec.yaml:

  assets:
     - assets/images/
     - assets/json/

Set AssetCache.basePath to avoid using full asset paths:

ImageAssets.instance.basePath = "assets/images/";

Load and cache assets using load, which returns a Future<T>:

final image = await ImageAssets.instance.load('sprite.png')
