getImage method
- @Deprecated('Switch to using pickImage instead')
- required ImageSource source,
- double? maxWidth,
- double? maxHeight,
- int? imageQuality,
- CameraDevice preferredCameraDevice = CameraDevice.rear,
Returns a PickedFile object wrapping the image that was picked.
The returned PickedFile is intended to be used within a single app session. Do not save the file path and use it across sessions.
The source
argument controls where the image comes from. This can
be either ImageSource.camera or ImageSource.gallery.
Where iOS supports HEIC images, Android 8 and below doesn't. Android 9 and above only support HEIC images if used in addition to a size modification, of which the usage is explained below.
If specified, the image will be at most maxWidth
wide and
maxHeight
tall. Otherwise the image will be returned at it's
original width and height.
The imageQuality
argument modifies the quality of the image, ranging from 0-100
where 100 is the original/max quality. If imageQuality
is null, the image with
the original quality will be returned. Compression is only supported for certain
image types such as JPEG and on Android PNG and WebP, too. If compression is not supported for the image that is picked,
a warning message will be logged.
Use preferredCameraDevice
to specify the camera to use when the source
is ImageSource.camera.
The preferredCameraDevice
is ignored when source
is ImageSource.gallery. It is also ignored if the chosen camera is not supported on the device.
Defaults to CameraDevice.rear. Note that Android has no documented parameter for an intent to specify if
the front or rear camera should be opened, this function is not guaranteed
to work on an Android device.
In Android, the MainActivity can be destroyed for various reasons. If that happens, the result will be lost in this call. You can then call getLostData when your app relaunches to retrieve the lost data.
See also getMultiImage to allow users to select multiple images at once.
The method could throw PlatformException
if the app does not have permission to access
the camera or photos gallery, no camera is available, plugin is already in use,
temporary file could not be created (iOS only), plugin activity could not
be allocated (Android only) or due to an unknown error.
