Image.getSize does not use headers

[jberns88]

When loading images with something like:

[
  {
    "source": {
      "uri": "http://my.files.com/123",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "BASIC ..."
      }
    }
  }
]

The gallery errors because the getSize cannot be given headers and therefore sets the state to error. As images are cached by React Native once they're loaded is it possible to run the getSize method after the image is loaded as a workaround?

Hi @jberns88, I am facing a similar issue, have you found the answer on how to send headers while using Image.getSize(). I need this because I can't access the image without auth token that must be present in the header. Thanks in advance

Nope, I ended up fetching the image myself and passing it in as base64. It's not very efficient but did the job.

Ammm....bad luck for me then...Thanks
