Unable to load animation.json file to my flutter project

Question

I exported animation.json file from Aftereffect using bodymovin and I can't load it to my flutter project.

I followed this medium article and I was unable to render the animation, also after putting the file path in assets at the pubspec.yaml file.

I tried to simplify my code to this:

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:lottie/lottie.dart';

void main() => runApp(MyApp());

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      home: Scaffold(
        body: ListView(
          children: [
            // Load a Lottie file from your assets
            Lottie.asset('assets/optimal.json'),

            // Load a Lottie file from a remote url
            Lottie.network(
                'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xvrh/lottie-flutter/master/example/assets/Mobilo/A.json'),

            // Load an animation and its images from a zip file
            // Lottie.asset('assets/lottiefiles/angel.zip'),
          ],
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}

And this is the error message:

Answer 1

You can try to delete pubspec.lock and install packages with flutter pub get.

Answer 2

Check that you added lottie folder or file to your pubdpec.yaml file of project like this

flutter:
assets:
- assets/images/
- assets/lottieFiles/   //this is an example of lottie file on your assets
