Errors when added image_picker dependency for flutter (iOS)

I needed to use image_picker for my application. I added image_picker dependency onto my pubspec.yaml file, and for the iOS I have added NSCameraUsageDescription NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription NSMicrophoneUsageDescription onto the info.plist file, but I get this error when trying to run the app on iOS simulator.

This is the error I got when trying to run the app. `Launching lib/main.dart on iPhone 11 Pro Max in debug mode... /Users/sirapol/Desktop/FirstCareFrontEnd/care_now_frontend_v1/ios/Runner/Info.plist: Property List error: Found non-key inside at line 27 / JSON error: JSON text did not start with array or object and option to allow fragments not set.

this is part of my pubspec.yaml file

I have no idea why the error is happening. Because I have done this once and got no error. Thank you for your help

Solution

  • You need to be sure you have a value added after key values in plist files. Add string values under those keys and it should fix the problem.

    Example:

    <key>NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription</key>
<string>Allow access to your phone's location</string>
<key>NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription</key>
<string>Allow access your photo library</string>
<key>NSCameraUsageDescription</key>
<string>Allow access your phone's camera</string>
<key>NSMicrophoneUsageDescription</key>
<string>Allow the app to record using your phone's microphone</string>

    As for the architecture mapping errors try setting your iOS deployment target to 9.0 or above in the xcode project.

    Also, I noticed you have a trailing value in your code example, that looks like it should be moved to under

    <key>UIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearance</key>
<false/>
