Masamune Picker

Usage

Installation

Add the package to your project.

flutter pub add masamune_picker

Run flutter pub get when editing pubspec.yaml manually.

Register the Adapter

PickerMasamuneAdapter integrates file selection, camera capture, and storage handling. Register it before runApp.

// lib/adapter.dart

/// Masamune adapters used in the application.
final masamuneAdapters = <MasamuneAdapter>[
  const UniversalMasamuneAdapter(),

  const PickerMasamuneAdapter(),
];

The adapter provides platform-specific implementations for mobile, desktop, and web, exporting storage utilities under storage/.

Basic Usage

Use the Picker controller to select files or capture from camera.

Pick a Single Image:

class MyPage extends PageScopedWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context, PageRef ref) {
    final picker = ref.page.controller(Picker.query());

    return ElevatedButton(
      onPressed: () async {
        final image = await picker.pickSingle(
          type: PickerFileType.image,
          dialogTitle: "Select an image",
        );
        
        if (image != null) {
          print("Selected: ${image.path}");
          print("Size: ${image.bytes?.length} bytes");
        }
      },
      child: const Text("Pick Image"),
    );
  }
}

Pick Multiple Files:

final files = await picker.pickMultiple(
  type: PickerFileType.custom(["pdf", "docx", "txt"]),
  dialogTitle: "Select documents",
);

for (final file in files) {
  print("File: ${file.name}, Size: ${file.bytes?.length}");
}

Access Last Selection:

// Access the last selected files
final lastFiles = picker.value;
if (lastFiles != null && lastFiles.isNotEmpty) {
  print("Last picked: ${lastFiles.first.name}");
}

// Listen for changes
picker.addListener(() {
  final files = picker.value;
  // Update UI with selected files
});

Camera Capture

On supported platforms, capture photos or videos directly from the camera:

// Capture a photo
final photo = await picker.pickCamera(
  type: PickerFileType.image,
  dialogTitle: "Take a photo",
);

// Capture a video
final video = await picker.pickCamera(
  type: PickerFileType.video,
  dialogTitle: "Record a video",
);

Error Handling:

try {
  final photo = await picker.pickCamera(type: PickerFileType.image);
  print("Captured: ${photo?.path}");
} on MasamunePickerPermissionDeniedException {
  print("Camera permission denied");
  // Show permission request dialog
} catch (e) {
  print("Picker error: $e");
}

File Types

Specify the type of files to allow:

// Any file
await picker.pickSingle(type: PickerFileType.any);

// Images only
await picker.pickSingle(type: PickerFileType.image);

// Videos only
await picker.pickSingle(type: PickerFileType.video);

// Audio files
await picker.pickSingle(type: PickerFileType.audio);

// Custom extensions
await picker.pickSingle(
  type: PickerFileType.custom(["pdf", "docx", "xlsx"]),
);

Display Selected Images

Show selected images in your UI:

class ImagePickerWidget extends PageScopedWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context, PageRef ref) {
    final picker = ref.page.controller(Picker.query());

    return Column(
      children: [
        // Display selected images
        if (picker.value != null && picker.value!.isNotEmpty)
          Wrap(
            spacing: 8,
            children: picker.value!.map((file) {
              return Image.memory(
                file.bytes!,
                width: 100,
                height: 100,
                fit: BoxFit.cover,
              );
            }).toList(),
          ),
        
        // Pick button
        ElevatedButton(
          onPressed: () async {
            await picker.pickMultiple(type: PickerFileType.image);
          },
          child: const Text("Select Images"),
        ),
      ],
    );
  }
}

Tips

• Use PickerFileType.custom() for specific file extensions
• Provide localized dialog titles via the dialogTitle parameter
• Monitor picker.future to show loading indicators during selection
• Combine with masamune_camera for advanced capture scenarios
• Use with storage adapters to automatically upload selected files to cloud storage
