Store Image in List<Xfile> from image urls - flutter

Question

I have created a variable
List<Xfile> imageList;
using this variable I have showed the selected images in GridView.Builder and uploaded them.
But I want to store those uploaded images in this List to show them again in GridView.Builder.
Means How to store images from imageUrls in List
How can I achieve this?

Answer 1

Follow as follows:
Variables
final picker = ImagePicker();
File? file;
XFile? pickedImage;
bool isLoading = false;
List<File?> fileList = [];
Method to select image from gallery
Future pickImageFromGallery() async {
pickedImage = await picker.pickImage(source: ImageSource.gallery);
setState(() {
file = File(pickedImage!.path);
fileList.add(file);
});
}
And place in gridview as follows:
GridView.builder(
itemCount: fileList.length,
gridDelegate:
const SliverGridDelegateWithFixedCrossAxisCount(crossAxisCount: 3),
itemBuilder: (BuildContext context, int i) {
return Container(
padding: const EdgeInsets.all(10),
child: Stack(
children: <Widget>[
SizedBox(
height: 100,
width: 100,
child: Image.file(File(fileList[i]!.path),fit: BoxFit.cover,),
),
Positioned(
right: 1,
child: GestureDetector(
onTap: () {
setState(() {
dltImages(fileList[i]);
});
},
child: const Icon(Icons.cancel, color: Colors.red),
))
],
),
);
},
),

I do like this if there is multi images upload
class PickImagesPage extends StatefulWidget {
const PickImagesPage({super.key, required this.initialUrls});
final List<String> initialUrls;
#override
State<PickImagesPage> createState() => _PickImagesPageState();
}
class _PickImagesPageState extends State<PickImagesPage> {
#override
void initState() {
urls = widget.initialUrls;
super.initState();
}
List<String> urls = [];
List<File> files = [];
List<String> removedUrls = [];
final Repo repo = Repo();
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
final theme = Theme.of(context);
final style = theme.textTheme;
final scheme = theme.colorScheme;
return LoadingLayer(
child: Scaffold(
bottomNavigationBar: Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.fromLTRB(24, 0, 24, 24),
child: ElevatedButton(
onPressed:
files.isNotEmpty || widget.initialUrls.length != urls.length
? () async {
try {
await repo.uploadImages(
files: files,
urls: urls,
removedUrls: removedUrls,
);
Navigator.pop(context);
} catch (e) {
AppSnackbar(context).error(e);
if (kDebugMode) {
print(e);
}
}
}
: null,
child: const Text(Labels.save),
),
),
appBar: AppBar(
title: const Text(
Labels.ambienceImages,
),
),
floatingActionButton: FloatingActionButton(
onPressed: () async {
final List<XFile> pickedFiles = await pickImages();
if (pickedFiles.isNotEmpty) {
setState(() {
files.addAll(pickedFiles.map((e) => File(e.path)));
});
}
},
child: const Icon(Icons.add),
),
body: GridView.count(
padding: const EdgeInsets.all(12),
crossAxisCount: 2,
mainAxisSpacing: 12,
crossAxisSpacing: 12,
children: [
