The below gif displays a 30 MB image from cache Use shimmer package to create a beautiful loading widget.

Usage #

Import it

import 'package:fast_cached_network_image/fast_cached_network_image.dart';

Use path_provider to set a storage location for the db of images.

String storageLocation = (await getApplicationDocumentsDirectory()).path;

This package uses Hive as cache container, which uses getApplicationDocumentsDirectory() to get the default path in case subDir is not specified

Initialize the cache configuration

await FastCachedImageConfig.init(subDir: storageLocation, clearCacheAfter: const Duration(days: 15));

The clearCacheAfter property is used to set the Duration after with the cached image will be cleared. By default its set to 7 days, which means an image cached today will be deleted when you open the app after 7 days.

Use it as a Widget

child: FastCachedImage(url: url)

Properties #

errorBuilder: (context, exception, stacktrace) {
  return Text(stacktrace.toString());
},

errorBuilder property needs to return a widget. This widget will be displayed if there is any error while loading the provided image.


loadingBuilder: (context, progress) {
  return Container(
    color: Colors.yellow,
    child: Stack(
      alignment: Alignment.center,
      children: [
        if (progress.isDownloading && progress.totalBytes != null)
          Text('${progress.downloadedBytes ~/ 1024} / ${progress.totalBytes! ~/ 1024} kb',
              style: const TextStyle(color: Colors.red)),
        SizedBox(
            width: 120,
            height: 120,
            child:
            CircularProgressIndicator(color: Colors.red, value: progress.progressPercentage.value)),
      ],
    ),
  );
},

loadingBuilder property can be used to display a loading widget such as a shimmer. This widget will be displayed while the image is being downloaded and processed. loadingBuilder provides a progress property which can be used to display the image download progress with the size(in bytes) of the image.

fadeInDuration: const Duration(seconds: 1);

fadeInDuration property can be use to set the fadeInDuration between the loadingBuilder and the image. Default duration is 500 milliseconds

FastCachedImageConfig.isCached(imageUrl: url));

You can pass in a url to this method and check whether the image in the url is already cached.

FastCachedImageConfig.deleteCachedImage(imageUrl: url);

This method deletes the image with given url from cache.

FastCachedImageConfig.clearAllCachedImages();

This method removes all the cached images. This method can be used in situations such as user logout, where you need to clear all the images corresponding to the particular user.

If an image had some errors while displaying, the image will be automatically re - downloaded when the image is requested again.

FastCachedImage have all other default properties such as height, width etc. provided by flutter.

If you want to use an image from cache as image provider, use

FastCachedImageProvider(url);
