RequireImageCacheDimensionsRule class

Warns when Image.network is used without a cacheWidth/cacheHeight.

Since: v2.3.10 | Updated: v4.13.0 | Rule version: v6

Alias: image_cache_dimensions, network_image_size

Without cacheWidth/cacheHeight, images are decoded at full resolution, consuming excessive memory. Always specify cache dimensions for memory efficiency.

BAD:

Image.network('https://example.com/large-image.jpg')

GOOD:

Image.network(
  'https://example.com/large-image.jpg',
  cacheWidth: 400,
  cacheHeight: 400,
)
