FileSystem shim to allow saving file in IndexedDB or memory

fs_shim.dart's Issues

Does fs_shim support random read/writes

I need a solution that works for large files (GB+) within a browser.

The storage system must not require any user interactions to create/read/write files.

The storage system needs to provide seek style operations with efficient read/write operations to parts of a large file.

Does fs_shim allow this?

I can't find any references to the likes of RandomAccessFile.
I'm assuming that give fs_shim is backed by indexed_db that it requires no user permissions but I'm unable to find any definitive statement on this.

Support Platform class in fs_shim/fs_io.dart

When replacing

import 'dart:io';

with

import 'package:fs_shim/fs_io.dart';

It would be really handy to have Platform class (from dart:io) also supported when running on web.

So, calls like Platform.isAndroid, Platform.isIOS, etc. would return correct platform the web browser running in.

Support fs_io on web

Currently the fs_io doesn't seem to work on web and you have to fall back to fs_shim.dart and direct use of fileSystemWeb.file() in order to use File API on the web.

It would be really neat if the fs_io worked out of the box on the web too.

File not working on Flutter Web

Hello I tried using your plug in Flutter for Web and it just does not work. Below is the code. Could you please help?

somethingElse()
async {

FileSystem fs = ioFileSystem;
// safe place when running from package root
String dirPath = (Directory.current.path);

// Create a top level directory
// fs.newDirectory('/dir');
Directory dir = new Directory(dirPath);

// delete its content
await dir.delete(recursive: true);

// and a file in it
// fs.newFile(join(dir.path, "file"));
File file = new File(dir.path+ "file.txt");

// create a file
await file.create(recursive: true);
await file.writeAsString("Hello world!");

// list dir content
print(await dir.list(recursive: true, followLinks: true).toList());
}
