photos_library

A simple flutter plugin to demo how to interact to system gallery. Only iOS PhotosKit is supported for now:

  1. get authorization status
  2. request Photos authorization status
  3. fetch assets metadata
  4. fetch assets' thumbnail image in binary form, then sent to flutter side
  5. (in example) display binary-form image with Image.memory

Methods

  1. PhotosLibrary.authorizeationStatus
  2. PhotosLibrary.requestAuthorization
  3. PhotosLibrary.fetchMediaWithType
  4. PhotosLibrary.requestThumbnail

Notes

For authorizing to Photos library, you need to add NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription into your info.plist in project

History:

Version 0.0.4:

  1. added @required to width and height parameters

Version 0.0.3:

  1. Breaking API of 0.0.2
  2. changed deliverMode to PHImageRequestOptionsDeliveryModeOpportunistic for [PHImageManager requestImageForAsset:targetSize:contentMode:options:resultHandler:] message. using PHImageRequestOptionsDeliveryModeFastFormat makes API only return very low resolution image. but using PHImageRequestOptionsDeliveryModeOpportunistic makes multiple calls to get different resolution images, so
  3. Because 2. has multiple calls to get images, in 0.0.2, the message handler is set inside Asset instance, but Dart's object doesn't have a deconstructor like method to call unregister message handler, and I move the example's AssetView into lib, and have the unregistering inside deactive of the Widget.
