Display the Upload Progress of Images in Flutter with Firebase Storage

When building a Flutter application that involves uploading images to Firebase Storage, providing feedback to your users regarding upload progress is crucial. It enhances user experience and helps manage expectations, especially when uploading multiple images. If you've implemented a feature to upload images but are unsure how to track and display how many images have been uploaded versus how many are yet to be uploaded, you're in the right place.

The Problem

You need a way to inform users of the upload status of their images. For instance, displaying a message like "uploaded 1 out of 10 images" can certainly make the process more informative and engaging.

The Solution

To implement this feature, we can utilize the StreamController in conjunction with the StreamBuilder widget in Flutter. This setup allows us to dynamically update the UI with the progress of the upload. Let’s break this solution into clear steps.

Step 1: Integrate StreamController

First, you need to create a StreamController instance, which will be responsible for managing the stream of upload progress data:

Step 2: Update the Upload Function

Next, modify your existing uploadImage function. In this function, after each successful upload, we’ll add the current count of uploaded images to the stream using streamController.add(...).

Here’s how your modified function would look:

Step 3: Construct the User Interface with StreamBuilder

In your Flutter widget where the images will be uploaded, you can use a StreamBuilder to listen to the stream from the StreamController. This allows you to update the UI whenever the upload count changes.

Here's an example of how to structure the UI:

Final Thoughts

By following these steps, you'll provide users with a clear and concise message about the upload status of their images. This method not only keeps users informed but also improves the overall user experience of your app. With the use of StreamController and StreamBuilder, you can easily update the UI based on real-time data.

In summary, enhance your Flutter application with this engaging upload feature and watch as your users appreciate the responsiveness of your app!
