DirectoryLocation custom class

[panalgin]

Hello,

How can we instantiniate DirectoryLocation object? Because I would like to manually set a location if the user does not select a folder to save to. In this case, I can't seem to find a constructor function for DirectoryLocation and it is not castable from "Directory" class of dart:io

DirectoryLocation? pickedDirectory =
        await FlutterFileDialog.pickDirectory();

    pickedDirectory ??=
        (await getApplicationDocumentsDirectory()) as DirectoryLocation;

The above cast does not work

Hi @panalgin , DirectoryLocation may contain temporary permission information granted by the user with a specific directory, therefore, there is no way to constructs a DirectoryLocation without interacting with the user.
