Flutter: Firebase Storage is not uploading multiple images, it always repeat the same path?

Question

class CategoryScreen extends StatefulWidget {
  static const routeName = '/category-screen';
  @override
  _CategoryScreenState createState() => _CategoryScreenState();
}

class _CategoryScreenState extends State<CategoryScreen> {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {

    String _carModel = '';
    File carImage;
    
    String ranDom = randomBetween(0, 300).toString();
    
    void _submitCarCategory() async{
    final isValid = _form.currentState.validate();
    
    if(isValid){
      _form.currentState.save();
       //.... upload image here
/*===============================Here is firebase storage work==============================*/
      final ref = FirebaseStorage.instance.ref().child('cars').child(ranDom + '.jpg');
      await ref.putFile(carImage);
      //kan fe .onComplete ba3ed (image)**strong text**

Answer 1

Instead of using

 String ranDom = randomBetween(0, 300).toString();

Assign a Date and Time(including seconds) to your image name or combination of both ranDom and dateTime.

final ref = FirebaseStorage.instance.ref().child('cars').child(ranDom + DateTime + '.jpg');
