I have been reading a number of different Stackoverflow answers that say to use the path_provider plugin. I think I have everything workign fine but its not quite saving.
// Convert the data to CSV format
String csvContent =
const ListToCsvConverter().convert(csvData);
// Write the CSV content to a file
final Directory? appDocumentsDir =
await getApplicationDocumentsDirectory();
// Ensure the downloads directory is not null
if (appDocumentsDir != null) {
// Create a file in the downloads directory
File file =
File('${appDocumentsDir.path}/your_file_name.csv');
// Write the CSV content to the file
await file.writeAsString(csvContent);
print('Data exported to CSV file: ${file.path}');
} else {
print('Error: Unable to get the downloads directory.');
}
Whats odd is when I print the location it is saving too I get this:
/data/user/0/com.appName/app_flutter/your_file_name.csv
Which is not the documents directory as this line should be grabbing:
final Directory? appDocumentsDir = await getApplicationDocumentsDirectory();
When I look in the documents directory on my emulator I dont see any files. So I dont think its saving properly.
