@dcworldwide , thank you for your information ! I think you might try removing the prefix file: from the path, and see if it works then 👍

Awesome work. I've quickly tested out uploading a file to firebase on 0.8.0-alpha.5 but I did have an issue.

// create Blob from BASE64 data
                    let blob = new Blob(RNFetchBlob.wrap(media.url), {type: 'image/png;BASE64'})

                    // Blob creation is async, start upload task after it created
                    blob.onCreated(() => {

                        var metadata = {
                            customMetadata: {

                        // Push to child path.
                        var uploadTask = storageRef.child('media/' + mediaId).put(blob, metadata);

                                switch (progress.state) {

                                resolve(uploadTask.snapshot.metadata.downloadURLs[0])
                            }
                        );

I realise this is alpha so there is no point testing it just yet. Just wanted to say I"m really happy your tackling an important problem and am looking forward to using your lib :)

[dcworldwide]

Ok I'll try that, thanks 👍

[shirleycharlin]

@dcworldwide hey I have also encounter the same issue right now. Can I know if you have resolved it? :)

[shirleycharlin]

right now I am encountering with these error message:

Blob verbose: Blob constructor called mime image/jpeg;BASE64 type string length 34
log.js:24 Blob verbose: create Blob cache file from file path RNFetchBlob-file://[object Object]
log.js:24 Blob verbose: register blob onCreated 0
log.js:36 Blob error: RNFetchBlob could not create Blob : [object Object] failed to list path [object Object] for it is not exist or it is not exist

and I am using 0.8.0-alpha.6

[wkh237]

@shirleycharlin , I think that's because you're using an object as first argument of Blob constructor.

please refer to the document

[shirleycharlin]

I have resolve it. I actually uses the syntax from Mr @dcworldwide . if you don't mind I would like to copy and paste these code of mine later.

@shirleycharlin , great to hear that 👍 Please feel free to leave any comment or message.
