My app is webbased and I need to upload pictures from an INPUT field camp. I've two situations and as i don't know another way to do it depending the page I'm choosing one or another with "boolean boolFileChoser" depending its URL petition:
a. file picker
b. camera photo shoot.
I've dealt with file picker and it upload the file perfectly, the problem is with the camera. Once i try to upload the Camera Pic, it crashes.
As far as i know its because the URI.
a) File picker: content://media/external/images/1234
b) Camera shoot: file:///mnt/sdcard/Pic.jpg
I've found no way to change it.
See update
It now crashes because a nullpointerexception while trying to upload the "content://media/external/images/1234". (only with camera, not file chooser. ). Also if the chooser/camera is closed (back button), i'm unable to call it again.
Case a) and b) 100% working, here's the working code, including how I know if fileChooser or camera are called:
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent intent) {
if (resultCode != RESULT_OK) {
/** fixed code **/
//To be able to use the filechooser again in case of error
mUploadMessage.onReceiveValue(null);
/** fixed code **/
return;
}
if (mUploadMessage==null) {
Log.d("androidruntime","no mUploadMessage");
return;
}
if (requestCode == FILECHOOSER_RESULTCODE) {
Uri selectedImage= intent == null || resultCode != RESULT_OK ? null : intent.getData();
Log.d("androidruntime","url: "+selectedImage.toString());
}else if (requestCode == CAMERAREQUEST_RESULTCODE) {
if(mCapturedImageURI==null){
Log.d("androidruntime","no mCapturedImageURI");
return;
}
/** fixed code **/
getContentResolver().notifyChange(mCapturedImageURI, null);
ContentResolver cr = getContentResolver();
Uri uriContent= Uri.parse(MediaStore.Images.Media.insertImage(getContentResolver(), photo.getAbsolutePath(), null, null));
photo = null;
/** fixed code **/
}
mUploadMessage.onReceiveValue(selectedImage);
mUploadMessage = null;
}
private static final int FILECHOOSER_RESULTCODE = 2888;
private static final int CAMERAREQUEST_RESULTCODE = 1888;
private ValueCallback<Uri> mUploadMessage;
private Uri mCapturedImageURI = null;
protected class AwesomeWebChromeClient extends WebChromeClient{
// Per Android 3.0+
public void openFileChooser(ValueCallback<Uri> uploadMsg, String acceptType){
/**updated, out of the IF **/
mUploadMessage = uploadMsg;
/**updated, out of the IF **/
if(boolFileChooser){ //Take picture from filechooser
Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
i.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_OPENABLE);
i.setType("image/*");
MainActivity.this.startActivityForResult( Intent.createChooser( i, "Escoger Archivo" ), MainActivity.FILECHOOSER_RESULTCODE );
} else { //Take photo and upload picture
Intent cameraIntent = new Intent("android.media.action.IMAGE_CAPTURE");
File photo = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(), "Pic.jpg");
cameraIntent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT,
Uri.fromFile(photo));
mCapturedImageURI = Uri.fromFile(photo);
startActivityForResult(cameraIntent, MainActivity.CAMERA_REQUEST);
}
}
// Per Android < 3.0
public void openFileChooser(ValueCallback<Uri> uploadMsg){
openFileChooser(uploadMsg, "");
}
//Altre
public void openFileChooser(ValueCallback<Uri> uploadMsg, String acceptType, String capture) {
openFileChooser(uploadMsg, "");
}
/** Added code to clarify chooser. **/
//The webPage has 2 filechoosers and will send a console message informing what action to perform, taking a photo or updating the file
public boolean onConsoleMessage(ConsoleMessage cm) {
onConsoleMessage(cm.message(), cm.lineNumber(), cm.sourceId());
return true;
}
public void onConsoleMessage(String message, int lineNumber, String sourceID) {
Log.d("androidruntime", "Per cònsola: " + cm.message());
if(message.endsWith("foto")){ boolFileChooser= true; }
else if(message.endsWith("pujada")){ boolFileChooser= false; }
}
/** Added code to clarify chooser. **/
}
UPDATE 1
I could get the "content://media/external/images/xxx" uri format, but the app still crashes while trying to upload the uri via "mUploadMessage.onReceiveValue(selectedImage);". Now I'm getting a nullpointerexception.
UPDATE 2
Fixed and working.
I've had the 'ValueCallback uploadMsg' in local variable only in file-chooser case, so it allways throwed me an exception when i tried to upload a photo file because it was null. Once i took out from if-else statement, all worked. The previous update was the easiest method to deal with the file upload.
I've already added a 'mUploadMessage.onReceiveValue(null);' if the Camera/filechooser intent is cancelled (you must deal with it in your webpage), if not, you won't be able to launch the INPUT field (Intent) again.
UPDATE 3
Added the part of the code inside AwesomeChromeClient to discriminate the option, take a photo or choose a file.. its MY way of doing it and added by petition, i'm sure there're a lot of other valid ways to do it,
The code is 100% functionally now. If you indicate if you want picture or file-chooser
Solved. Inside my question, there's the functional code in case anyone needs it.
Here's the solution of the issues:
Couldn't open camera/filechooser if I previously opened and cancelled:
//inside onActivityResult
if (resultCode != RESULT_OK) {
mUploadMessage.onReceiveValue(null);
return;
}
Get the "content://media/external/images/xxx" uri format, to upload the uri via "mUploadMessage.onReceiveValue(selectedImage);", avoiding a nullpointerexception
//inside OnActivityResult
getContentResolver().notifyChange(mCapturedImageURI, null);
ContentResolver cr = getContentResolver();
Uri uriContent = Uri.parse(android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.insertImage(getContentResolver(), photo.getAbsolutePath(), null, null));
