Question

Hi Guys,

I am trying to load one image from GitHub to my Flutter App. But it is showing me the below error.

The following assertion was thrown resolving an image codec:
Unable to load asset: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/

I am using the below code.

Container(
          decoration: BoxDecoration(
              image: DecorationImage(
                  image: AssetImage(
                     "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/")
                      .image,
                  fit: BoxFit.cover))
)

Hi@akhtar,

You are using the wrong parameter. In your case, you are trying to load the image from the internet. So instead of AssetImage, you have to use Image.network keyword.

Container(
          decoration: BoxDecoration(
              image: DecorationImage(
                  image: Image.network(
                     "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/")
                      .image,
                  fit: BoxFit.cover))
)
