I upload an image to firebase storage but i can't see image in firebase storage-CodePudding

First this is about my uploadImage code, I try to fix it again and again but doesn't work

Future uploadImageFile() async
  {
    String fileName = DateTime.now().millisecondsSinceEpoch.toString();
    StorageReference storageReference = FirebaseStorage.instance.ref().child("Chat Images").child(fileName);

    StorageUploadTask storageUploadTask = storageReference.putFile(imageFile);
    StorageTaskSnapshot storageTaskSnapshot = await storageUploadTask.onComplete;

    storageTaskSnapshot.ref.getDownloadURL().then((downloadUrl){
      
      imageUrl = downloadUrl;
      setState(() {
        isLoading = false;
        onSendMessage(imageUrl, 1);
      });
    }, one rror: (error){
      setState(() {
        isLoading = false;
      });
      Fluttertoast.showToast(msg: "Error: "   error);
    });
  }

And after in click upload image the result in terminal like this :

[VERBOSE-2:ui_dart_state.cc(209)] Unhandled Exception: type 'PlatformException' is not a subtype of type 'String'

#8      StorageReference.getDownloadURL (package:firebase_storage/src/storage_reference.dart)

I don't know what to do.

I made a simple function to upload to Firebase Storage that works for me:

storage.dart

  Future upload({required String ref, required File file}) async {
    return await FirebaseStorage.instance.ref(ref).putFile(file).catchError(
          (e) => Utils.log(
            e,
            type: LogType.error,
          ),
        );
  }

  Future<String> downloadURL({required String ref}) async {
    return await FirebaseStorage.instance.ref(ref).getDownloadURL().catchError(
          (e) => Utils.log(
            e,
            type: LogType.error,
          ),
        );
  }

This Utils.log() is just a logger, you can use Toast if you want. And this is how I use it:

anywhere_else.dart:

  String ref = 'users/${Services.auth.currentUser()!.uid}/selfie.png';

  var upload = await Services.storage.upload(ref: ref, file: selfie);

  if (upload != null) {
    user.selfie = await Services.storage.downloadURL(ref: ref);
  }

CodePudding user response：

The exception you show in your question comes from this line:

Fluttertoast.showToast(msg: "Error: "   error);

The error in here is not a string, so you can't concatenate it to a string. What you want is:

Fluttertoast.showToast(msg: "Error: "   error.toString());

Or:

Fluttertoast.showToast(msg: "Error: $error");

That will then show you what the root cause of the upload failure is, so you can address that.
