How to get a Uint8List file with dio? :-/

[sucknorris]

Hi,
i want to download a file to a users mobile device library with using dio and gal.
Now i have the following code (part of it):

if (permissionRequested) { final hash = math.Random().nextInt(10000); final fileExt = 'png'; final fileName = 'gu_' + '$hash.$fileExt'; final imagePath = '${Directory.systemTemp.path}/' + fileName; await Dio().download(photoURL, imagePath); await Gal.putImage(imagePath, album: albumName); } else { throw Exception('Permission to access gallery denied'); }

But now photoURL iis a string await Dio().download(photoURL, imagePath);

is there any way to replace it to a Uint8List file?

Don't understand the code or the question. Can you be more specific and share full example?
