Flutter - How to get gallery folder path?

Question

I want to get gallery folder path.

I tried to use multiple libraries [path_provider, storage_path, image_save, multi_image_picker ...] to get the gallery folder path, but none of the libraries got the gallery folder path.

See, I don't find any great thing to save your file to your gallery, what I did found is to how to get your things done.

My solution will give you some things like

• Save a file visible to the user
• Check whether the file exists or not

Saving the file:

• For saving the file we can rely on the package downloads_path_provider.
• Look at this answer for using this package precisely
• Flutter save file visible to the user - StackOverFlow would help you to know how he is using path_provider package to save his files.

Check whether the file exists or not

To do this, you can use this code inside your code, where you are trying to save the file, form the above answer.

Important: You will get the path of the file where you are storing the file, just pass the path in the below code

import 'dart:io' as io;

// for a file
bool exists = io.File(path).exists();

// for a directory
bool exists = io.Directory(path).exists();

if(exists) // do your operation
else // do your else operation
