1. Wrap Your Widget #
Wrap the widget you want to capture with WidgetToPng and provide a GlobalKey to identify it.
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:widgets_to_png/widgets_to_png.dart';

class MyWidget extends StatelessWidget {
final GlobalKey _globalKey = GlobalKey();

@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(
title: Text('Widget to Image Example'),
),
body: Center(
child: WidgetToPng(
keyToCapture: _globalKey,
child: Container(
width: 200,
height: 200,
color: Colors.blue,
child: Center(child: Text('Capture Me!')),
),
),
),
floatingActionButton: FloatingActionButton(
onPressed: () async {
await ImageConverter.saveWidgetToGallery(
key: _globalKey,
fileName: 'captured_widget.png',
);
},
child: Icon(Icons.camera),
),
);
}
}

2. Capture Widget as Bytes #
Use the captureWidgetToBytes method to capture the widget as bytes. You can specify the image quality using either the ImageQuality enum or a custom quality value.
import 'package:widgets_to_png/widgets_to_png.dart';

Uint8List? imageBytes = await ImageConverter.captureWidgetToBytes(
key: _globalKey,
imageQuality: ImageQuality.high,
);

// Or using a custom quality value
Uint8List? imageBytes = await ImageConverter.captureWidgetToBytes(
key: _globalKey,
customImageQuality: 3.0,
);

3. Save Bytes to File #
Save the captured bytes to a file using the saveBytesToFile method.
import 'dart:io';
import 'package:widgets_to_png/widgets_to_png.dart';

File imageFile = await ImageConverter.saveBytesToFile(
bytes: imageBytes!,
filename: 'widget_image.png',
);

4. Convert Bytes to XFile #
Convert the captured bytes to an XFile using the convertBytesToXFile method.
import 'package:image_picker/image_picker.dart';
import 'package:widgets_to_png/widgets_to_png.dart';

XFile imageXFile = await ImageConverter.convertBytesToXFile(
bytes: imageBytes!,
filename: 'widget_image.png',
);

5. Save Widget to Gallery #
Save the captured widget image directly to the device gallery using the saveWidgetToGallery method.
import 'package:widgets_to_png/widgets_to_png.dart';

await ImageConverter.saveWidgetToGallery(
key: _globalKey,
fileName: 'captured_widget.png',
);
