Android library to provide chooser for files in External storage
- Clone the repository and copy the
filechooser
module to your project - Modify the layout files under layout folder according to your UI requirement
To choose from all image files
Intent addPhotosIntent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, FileChooseHelperActivity.class);
addPhotosIntent.putExtra(FileLibUtils.FILE_TYPE_TO_CHOOSE, FileLibUtils.FILE_TYPE_IMAGES);
startActivityForResult(addPhotosIntent, STORAGE_REQUEST_CODE);
To choose from all video files
Intent addPhotosIntent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, FileChooseHelperActivity.class);
addPhotosIntent.putExtra(FileLibUtils.FILE_TYPE_TO_CHOOSE, FileLibUtils.FILE_TYPE_VIDEOS);
startActivityForResult(addPhotosIntent, STORAGE_REQUEST_CODE);
You can get the result of above two request in onActivityResult()
of the activity
@Override protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == STORAGE_REQUEST_CODE && resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
ArrayList<String> stringArrayExtra = data.getStringArrayListExtra(FileLibUtils.SELECTED_FILES);
//the ArrayList will contain the absolute paths of selected files
....
....
}
}
You can also use the below method to get Folder and File lists
ArrayList<Bucket> buckets =
FileLibUtils.fetchLocalBuckets(MainActivity.this, FileLibUtils.FILE_TYPE_IMAGES);
ArrayList<FileItem> filesInBucket =
FileLibUtils.getFilesInBucket(MainActivity.this, buckets.get(0).bucketId,
FileLibUtils.FILE_TYPE_IMAGES);
