can any one help and my code look like this

import 'package:image/image.dart' as convertinglib;
File imageFile = await ImagePicker.pickImage();
convertinglib.Image image = convertinglib.decodeImage(new Io.File(imageFile.uri.toString()).readAsBytesSync());
convertinglib.Image thumbnail = convertinglib.copyResize(image, 120);

Answer 1

I suppose the issue is passing the Image URI as a String. There is a fromUri constructor where you can pass the file URI.

Try using

    new Io.File.fromUri(imageFile.uri)

instead of

    new Io.File(imageFile.uri.toString())
