Setup

Loading images from network

By default, MacOS applications cannot connect to the internet. Thus if you want to load network images, you have to add the Network Outgoing Connection (Client) entitlement to your application using XCode or edit the entitlement files with your preferred editor.

Using XCode

1. Open the file macos/Runner.xcworkspace with XCode
2. Select the Runner project in the Project navigator (left sidebar).
3. Select the Runner target in the Targets list.
4. Click the Signing & Capabilities tab in the project editor.
5. Locate the App Sandbox capability.
6. Check the Outgoing Connections (Client) checkbox to enable outgoing network connections for your app.

Editing entitlements files

1. Add the lines below to all the files matching the pattern macos/Runner/*.entitlements. Example:
   • macos/Runner/DebugProfile.entitlements
   • macos/Runner/Release.entitlements

<key>com.apple.security.network.client</key>
<true/>
