I am using the following code to list down all the files present on the SD card. However I just want to list down all the text files can some body tell me how to add a file filter. Similarly I need to fetch the image files as well. Following is my code:
public ArrayList<String> GetFiles(String DirectoryPath) {
ArrayList<String> MyFiles = new ArrayList<String>();
File f = new File(DirectoryPath);
f.mkdirs();
File[] files = f.listFiles();
if (files.length == 0)
return null;
else {
for (int i=0; i<files.length; i++)
MyFiles.add(files[i].getName());
}
return MyFiles;
}
Use .endsWith()
method from Java String Class to check File Extension from file path.
Method:
public boolean endsWith(String suffix)
Your Code something like,
private List<String> ReadSDCard()
{
//It have to be matched with the directory in SDCard
File f = new File("your path");
File[] files=f.listFiles();
for(int i=0; i<files.length; i++)
{
File file = files[i];
/*It's assumed that all file in the path are in supported type*/
String filePath = file.getPath();
if(filePath.endsWith(".txt")) // Condition to check .txt file extension
tFileList.add(filePath);
}
return tFileList;
}
