In Nougat, this function is not working.
String path = getRealPathFromURI(this, getIntent().getParcelableExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM));
public String getRealPathFromURI(Context context, Uri contentUri) {
Cursor cursor = null;
try {
String[] proj = {MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA};
cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(contentUri, proj, null, null, null);
if (cursor == null) return contentUri.getPath();
int column_index = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA);
cursor.moveToFirst();
return cursor.getString(column_index);
} finally {
if (cursor != null) {
cursor.close();
}
}
}

This function is working properly in devices before Android N. I read the article file:// scheme is now not allowed to be attached with Intent on targetSdkVersion 24 (Android Nougat). But couldn't find any solution. So please help.
This function is working properly in devices before Android N
It works for very few Uri
values, may not have a result (e.g., for things that are indexed by MediaStore
that are not local files), and may not have a usable result (e.g., for files on removable storage).
So please help.
Use a ContentResolver
and openInputStream()
to get an InputStream
on the content identified by the Uri
. Ideally, just use that stream directly, for whatever it is that you are trying to do. Or, use that InputStream
and some FileOutputStream
on a file that you control to make a copy of the content, then use that file.
As per given answer by CommonsWare, the solution code is :
public static String getFilePathFromURI(Context context, Uri contentUri) {
//copy file and send new file path
String fileName = getFileName(contentUri);
if (!TextUtils.isEmpty(fileName)) {
File copyFile = new File(TEMP_DIR_PATH + File.separator + fileName);
copy(context, contentUri, copyFile);
return copyFile.getAbsolutePath();
}
return null;
}
public static String getFileName(Uri uri) {
if (uri == null) return null;
String fileName = null;
String path = uri.getPath();
int cut = path.lastIndexOf('/');
if (cut != -1) {
fileName = path.substring(cut + 1);
}
return fileName;
}
public static void copy(Context context, Uri srcUri, File dstFile) {
try {
InputStream inputStream = context.getContentResolver().openInputStream(srcUri);
if (inputStream == null) return;
OutputStream outputStream = new FileOutputStream(dstFile);
IOUtils.copyStream(inputStream, outputStream);
inputStream.close();
outputStream.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
I hope this helps you.
The origin of IOUtils.copy is from this site : https://www.developerfeed.com/copy-bytes-inputstream-outputstream-android/ (May need to change a bit the exception but it works as needed)
//The following code is working in Android N:
private static String getFilePathForN(Uri uri, Context context) {
Uri returnUri = uri;
Cursor returnCursor = context.getContentResolver().query(returnUri, null, null, null, null);
/*
* Get the column indexes of the data in the Cursor,
* * move to the first row in the Cursor, get the data,
* * and display it.
* */
int nameIndex = returnCursor.getColumnIndex(OpenableColumns.DISPLAY_NAME);
int sizeIndex = returnCursor.getColumnIndex(OpenableColumns.SIZE);
returnCursor.moveToFirst();
String name = (returnCursor.getString(nameIndex));
String size = (Long.toString(returnCursor.getLong(sizeIndex)));
File file = new File(context.getFilesDir(), name);
try {
InputStream inputStream = context.getContentResolver().openInputStream(uri);
FileOutputStream outputStream = new FileOutputStream(file);
int read = 0;
int maxBufferSize = 1 * 1024 * 1024;
int bytesAvailable = inputStream.available();
//int bufferSize = 1024;
int bufferSize = Math.min(bytesAvailable, maxBufferSize);
final byte[] buffers = new byte[bufferSize];
while ((read = inputStream.read(buffers)) != -1) {
outputStream.write(buffers, 0, read);
}
Log.e("File Size", "Size " + file.length());
inputStream.close();
outputStream.close();
Log.e("File Path", "Path " + file.getPath());
Log.e("File Size", "Size " + file.length());
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e("Exception", e.getMessage());
}
return file.getPath();
}
@Redturbo
I can't write a comment, I write here
IOUtils.copyStream(inputStream, outputStream);
TEMP_DIR_PATH - any your directory path, something like this
File rootDataDir = context.getFilesDir();
File copyFile = new File( rootDataDir + File.separator + fileName + ".jpg");
