I want to add the function which can upload multiple Photo image via ImagePicker
In this code, I can just upload single photo, not mutiple.
This app operating by flutter, dart and firebase server.
void dispose() {
textEditingController.dispose();
super.dispose();
}
File _image;
Future _getImage() async {
var image = await ImagePicker.pickImage(
source: ImageSource.gallery,
maxWidth: 1000,
maxHeight: 1000,
);
setState(() {
_image = image;
});
}
Future _uploadFile(BuildContext context) async {
if (_image != null) {
final firebaseStorageRef = FirebaseStorage.instance
.ref()
.child('post')
.child('${DateTime.now().millisecondsSinceEpoch}.png');
final task = firebaseStorageRef.putFile(
_image,
StorageMetadata(contentType: 'image/png'),
);
final storageTaskSnapshot = await task.onComplete;
final downloadUrl = await storageTaskSnapshot.ref.getDownloadURL();
await Firestore.instance.collection('post').add(
{
'contents': textEditingController.text,
'displayName': widget.user.displayName,
'email': widget.user.email,
'photoUrl': downloadUrl,
'userPhotoUrl': widget.user.photoUrl,
});
}

Instead of using ImagePicker.pickImage, use ImagePicker.pickMultiImage. That gives you a List instead of an XFile. Then you can just upload all images in the list. For instance, add an image parameter to your _uploadFile Function so that its function signature is
Future _uploadFile(BuildContext context, XFile image)
and just upload all images like
for (final image of images) {
_uploadFile(context, image)
}
I created here 3 functions used to pick files from imagePicker and to upload them to firebase storage.
