Android Take Photo from Camera and Gallery


A Simple example application to capture image/ selecting image from gallery.

This application includes sd card permission checking and FileUrilExposedException issue fix..


Step 1:
=========
Create an Activity like below

}


XML Layout for the Activity

activity_main.xml
==============

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:gravity="center"
android:orientation="vertical"
tools:context="org.pratap.cameraexample.MainActivity">


<ImageView
android:id="@+id/img_photo"
android:layout_width="250dp"
android:layout_height="250dp"
android:background="#c9c9c9"
android:scaleType="centerCrop" />


<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="24dp"
android:orientation="horizontal">

<Button
android:id="@+id/btn_capture_image"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="Capture Image" />


<Button
android:id="@+id/btn_galley_image"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="Galley Image" />

</LinearLayout>


</LinearLayout>

Step 2:
=========

Add the following code in AndroidManifest.xml


   <provider
            android:name="android.support.v4.content.FileProvider"
            android:authorities="${applicationId}.provider"
            android:exported="false"
            android:grantUriPermissions="true">
            <meta-data
                android:name="android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS"
                android:resource="@xml/provider_paths" />
        </provider>


like below




<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="org.pratap.cameraexample">


<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />


<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:roundIcon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
<activity android:name=".MainActivity">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>


<provider
android:name="android.support.v4.content.FileProvider"
android:authorities="${applicationId}.provider"
android:exported="false"
android:grantUriPermissions="true">
<meta-data
android:name="android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS"
android:resource="@xml/provider_paths" />
</provider>


</application>

</manifest>



Step 3:
=====

create provider_paths xml file under xml folder

path should be like this

res/xml/provider_path.xml



<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<paths xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<external-path name="external_files" path="."/>
</paths>




Some useful methods to convert Files to ByteArray or Base64 Encoded String


public static String getEncodedString(String filePath) throws FileNotFoundException, IOException {

String encodedDocument = "";


File file = new File(filePath);
byte[] binaryFile = new byte[(int) file.length()];
InputStream fis = new FileInputStream(file);


fis.read(binaryFile);
fis.close();


encodedDocument = Base64.encodeToString(binaryFile,
Base64.DEFAULT);


return encodedDocument;

}


public static byte[] getFileByteArray(String filePath) throws FileNotFoundException, IOException {

File file = new File(filePath);


FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(file);


ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
byte[] buf = new byte[(int) file.length()];
try {
for (int readNum; (readNum = fis.read(buf)) != -1; ) {
bos.write(buf, 0, readNum);


}
} catch (IOException ex) {
Log.d("error", "error");
}
byte[] imagebytes = bos.toByteArray();


return imagebytes;

}
