How to get full downloadUrl from UploadTaskSnapshot in Flutter?

Question

I correctly receive UploadTaskSnapshot, and the field downloadUrl contains an instance of Uri that parses download link of uploaded file.

How to get storage and downloadUrl as strings?

Answer 1

old

final uploadTask = imageStore.putFile(imageFile);
final url = (await uploadTask.future).downloadUrl;

update

This answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/52690889/217408 is now the accurate one.

final ref = FirebaseStorage.instance
    .ref()
    .child('path')
    .child('to')
    .child('the')
    .child('image_filejpg');

ref.putFile(imageFile);
// or ref.putData(Uint8List.fromList(imageData));

var url = await ref.getDownloadURL() as String;

or

var url = Uri.parse(await ref.getDownloadURL() as String);
