I need to save path of the image picked from server and later access the path to show that image on user click by database retrival.
-(void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info
{
NSString *urlPath = [info objectForKey:@"UIImagePickerControllerReferenceURL"]absoluteString];
}
and saving it to database.
It saved as assets-library://asset/asset.JPG?id=E1136225-97DE-4BF4-A864-67E33D60737A&ext=JPG
then I want to import to Imageview
UIImageView *iv = [[UIImageView alloc]init];
iv.image = [UIimage imageWithData:[NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:imagepath]]];
But it is not working
Use assetForURL:resultBlock:failureBlock:
method of ALAssetsLibrary class to retrieve image by URL.
There is more info: http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/AssetsLibrary/Reference/ALAssetsLibrary_Class/Reference/Reference.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40009722
UPD:
ALAssetsLibrary *lib = [[ALAssetsLibrary alloc] init];
[lib assetForURL: url resultBlock: ^(ALAsset *asset) {
ALAssetRepresentation *r = [asset defaultRepresentation];
self.imgView.image = [UIImage imageWithCGImage: r.fullResolutionImage];
}
failureBlock: nil];
Where is url
is your cached URL
Try this:
typedef void (^ALAssetsLibraryAssetForURLResultBlock)(ALAsset *asset);
typedef void (^ALAssetsLibraryAccessFailureBlock)(NSError *error);
ALAssetsLibraryAssetForURLResultBlock resultblock = ^(ALAsset *myasset){
ALAssetRepresentation *rep = [myasset defaultRepresentation];
CGImageRef iref = [rep fullResolutionImage];
if (iref){
UIImage *myImage = [UIImage imageWithCGImage:iref scale:[rep scale] orientation:(UIImageOrientation)[rep orientation]];
[fileImage addObject:myImage];
}
};
ALAssetsLibraryAccessFailureBlock failureblock = ^(NSError *myerror){
//failed to get image.
};
ALAssetsLibrary* assetslibrary = [[[ALAssetsLibrary alloc] init] autorelease];
[assetslibrary assetForURL:[filePath objectAtIndex:0] resultBlock:resultblock failureBlock:failureblock];
Note: Make sure your [filePath objectAtIndex:0]
will be a NSUrl
object. Else convert it to NSUrl
Example:
ALAssetsLibrary* assetslibrary = [[[ALAssetsLibrary alloc] init] autorelease];
NSURL myAssetUrl = [NSURL URLWithString:[filePath objectAtIndex:0]];
assetslibrary assetForURL:myAssetUrl resultBlock:resultblock failureBlock:failureblock];
