path_provider_tizen #

The Tizen implementation of path_provider.

Usage #

This package is not an endorsed implementation of path_provider. Therefore, you have to include path_provider_tizen alongside path_provider as dependencies in your pubspec.yaml file.

dependencies:
  path_provider: ^2.0.2
  path_provider_tizen: ^2.0.1

Then you can import path_provider in your Dart code:

import 'package:path_provider/path_provider.dart';

For detailed usage, see https://github.com/flutter/plugins/tree/master/packages/path_provider/path_provider#usage.

Notes #

• On Tizen, getExternalStorageDirectories will return internal storage paths (such as /home/owner/media/Music) unlike on Android where the function returns external storage (separate partition or SD card) paths.
• To access paths returned by getExternalStorageDirectory and getExternalCacheDirectories, you will need an SD card inserted to your Tizen device.
