Using Flutter Downloader plugin, after download app closes

Question

I use flutter_downloader package. After complete download some files, my app closes automatically and disconnects from the android studio. Anyone help me to find solutions.

    final status = await Permission.storage.request();
            if (status.isGranted) {
              await downloadPDF();
            } 

downloadPDF() async {
    final externalDir = await getExternalStorageDirectory();
    taskId = await FlutterDownloader.enqueue(
      url: pdfURL,
      savedDir: externalDir.path,
      fileName: "Flamingo Order Details",
      showNotification: true,
      openFileFromNotification: true,
    );
  }

Here is my console error:

are you using any api? – Verified

Yes, But I think It does not affect because file download successfully then after closes app. – Groggy

I think you have changed your stacktrace. The previous error caused was due to bad api. What you have now is Fatal signal 11 (SIGSEGV). This happens when the application is accessing memory outside of its address space. Please check #17841021 for more info. – Verified

Maybe it is late but it may help others. Recently I faced this error and I solved it. Your UI is rendering in Main isolate and your download events come from background isolate. Because codes in callback are run in the background isolate, so you have to handle the communication between two isolates. Usually, communication needs to take place to show download progress in the main UI. Implement the below code to handle communication:

import 'dart:isolate';
import 'dart:ui'; // You need to import these 2 libraries besides another libraries to work with this code

final ReceivePort _port = ReceivePort();

@override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();

    IsolateNameServer.registerPortWithName(_port.sendPort, 'downloader_send_port');
    _port.listen((dynamic data) {
      String id = data[0];
      DownloadTaskStatus status = data[1];
      int progress = data[2];
      setState((){ });
    });

    FlutterDownloader.registerCallback(downloadCallback);
  }

@override
  void dispose() {
    IsolateNameServer.removePortNameMapping('downloader_send_port');
    super.dispose();
  }

  static void downloadCallback(String id, DownloadTaskStatus status, int progress) {
    final SendPort send = IsolateNameServer.lookupPortByName('downloader_send_port')!;
    send.send([id, status, progress]);
  }


void _download(String url) async {
    final status = await Permission.storage.request();

    if(status.isGranted) {
      final externalDir = await getExternalStorageDirectory();

      final id = await FlutterDownloader.enqueue(
          url: url,
          savedDir: externalDir!.path,
        showNotification: true,
        openFileFromNotification: true,
      );
    } else {
      print('Permission Denied');
    }
  }

Call _download(url) function in your button and you are ready to go.

N.B: I am using sound null safety in my app and for this reason I am using null aware operator in this line of code:

final SendPort send = IsolateNameServer.lookupPortByName('downloader_send_port')!;

is all this process are necessary for each page where I'm using download function? or can I make it global? – Dehumidify
