How to open default file manager app that let you choose a file but only with extension .epub or .pdf programatically via Intent?
The code shown is the declaration of the intent that you have to start for opening the default file manager app that let you choose a file but only with extension .epub or .pdf, I hope it will be useful.
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT);
intent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_OPENABLE);
intent.setType("application/epub+zip");
String[] mimetypes = {"application/epub+zip", "application/pdf"};
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_MIME_TYPES, mimetypes);
startActivityForResult(intent,PICKFILE_RESULT_CODE);
It is a mix of solutions I found that work so maybe it is redundant. Let me know what you think!
