The solution IMO is to upgrade the API used to access files. https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/providers/document-provider#client
|
For this, you can use a specific intent: Intent.ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE . I made this working on the organice app: 200ok-ch/organice#933 I am using the document library but I believe it's easier to implement the features using android code - as not to depend on the library ?!
There is also example on how to persist permissions across Android reboots. @PluginMethod
public void pickDirectory(PluginCall call) {
// Sample code from https://github.com/android/storage-samples/blob/main/StorageClient/Application/src/main/java/com/example/android/storageclient/StorageClientFragment.java
// BEGIN_INCLUDE (use_open_document_intent)
// ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT is the intent to choose a file via the system's file browser.
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE);
// Optionally, specify a URI for the directory that should be opened in
// the system file picker when it loads.
// intent.putExtra(DocumentsContract.EXTRA_INITIAL_URI, uriToLoad);
// https://capacitorjs.com/docs/plugins/android#intents-with-results
startActivityForResult(call, intent, "pickDirectoryResult");
}
/**
* Companion callback to {@link OrganiceSync::pickDirectory} .
* Handles the result of "pick a directory" action.
* <p>
* Will save permissions to the directory.
*
* @param call
* @param result
*/
@SuppressLint("WrongConstant")
@ActivityCallback
public void pickDirectoryResult(PluginCall call, ActivityResult result) {
if (call == null) {
return;
}
Intent intent = result.getData();
if (intent != null) {
Uri uri = intent.getData();
JSObject ret = new JSObject();
// Persist permissions
// https://developer.android.com/training/data-storage/shared/documents-files#grant-access-directory
final int takeFlags = intent.getFlags()
& (Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION
| Intent.FLAG_GRANT_WRITE_URI_PERMISSION);
// Check for the freshest data.
getActivity().getContentResolver().takePersistableUriPermission(uri, takeFlags);
var d = DocumentFile.fromTreeUri(getContext(),uri);
ret.put("uri", uri);
ret.put("path", d.getUri().getEncodedPath());
call.resolve(ret);
} else {
JSObject ret = new JSObject();
ret.put("intent", result.getData());
ret.put("resultCode", result.getResultCode());
ret.put("uri", null);
call.reject("Failed with intent code " + result.getResultCode(), ret);
}

Thank you for your input! That will help me a lot. |
Well, it would be great to have this working properly for Android and IOs. We need basic operations for organice:
|
Guys, is there any chance that 'open directory' feature will be added for file picker ? Would be extremely nice to have |
@Nikita-schetko Yes, but there is no ETA. PRs are welcome. |
pickDirectory(...)
method
I would like to be able to pick a directory instead of a file.
I'm working on adding Android local storage support for organice https://github.com/200ok-ch/organice/ .
We need the ability to select the directory that contains the org files to manage.
Thanks,
Eugen
