Flutter Image Picker not working

[Brennan Altringer]

I am trying to use this image_picker and Firebase Storage and I think it should work but I'm getting an error. Im someone knows why that would be helpful.

My code:

Future<void> _pickSaveImage() async {

final File imageFile =

await ImagePicker.pickImage(source: ImageSource.gallery);

final StorageReference ref = FirebaseStorage.instance

.ref()

.child(globals.user['id'])

.child('profile.jpg');

final StorageUploadTask uploadTask = ref.putFile(imageFile);

_image = await (await uploadTask.onComplete).ref.getDownloadURL();

print(_image);

}

It was a typo on my end. I'm dumb

I had a similar problem. My app broke when I added cloud firestore and pickerImage like a dependencies. That is your case too? In that case, I had to use real time database instead firestore.
