I think their is some problem with the path which i have specified in the code. please help

Answer 1

Try this

public class SampleActivity extends Activity
    {

        @Override
        protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
        {
            super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
            setContentView(R.layout.main);
            CopyReadAssets();

        }

        private void CopyReadAssets()
        {
            AssetManager assetManager = getAssets();

            InputStream in = null;
            OutputStream out = null;
            File file = new File(getFilesDir(), "abc.pdf");
            try
            {
                in = assetManager.open("abc.pdf");
                out = openFileOutput(file.getName(), Context.MODE_WORLD_READABLE);

                copyFile(in, out);
                in.close();
                in = null;
                out.flush();
                out.close();
                out = null;
            } catch (Exception e)
            {
                Log.e("tag", e.getMessage());
            }

            Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
            intent.setDataAndType(
                    Uri.parse("file://" + getFilesDir() + "/abc.pdf"),
                    "application/pdf");

            startActivity(intent);
        }

        private void copyFile(InputStream in, OutputStream out) throws IOException
        {
            byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
            int read;
            while ((read = in.read(buffer)) != -1)
            {
                out.write(buffer, 0, read);
            }
        }

    }

Make sure to include

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

in manifest

Answer 2

You can do it like this (tested and working on API 27)

Step 1

Add following dependency in your app gradle:

implementation 'com.github.barteksc:android-pdf-viewer:2.8.2'

Step 2

Add following XML code:

<com.github.barteksc.pdfviewer.PDFView
         android:id="@+id/pdfv"
         android:layout_width="match_parent"
         android:layout_height="match_parent"> 
</com.github.barteksc.pdfviewer.PDFView>

Step 3

Add following code in your java file:

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    PDFView pdfView;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        pdfView=findViewById(R.id.pdfv);
        pdfView.fromAsset("filename.pdf").load();
    }
}

These changes will load a PDF file on creation of your activity.

Answer 3

Though this has been answered, I wanted to share my solution as I think it is a bit easier to include.

Usage:

new OpenLocalPDF(context, 'nameOfPDFStoredInAssets').execute()

And here is the OpenLocalPDF class:

public class OpenLocalPDF {

    private static String TAG = OpenLocalPDF.class.getSimpleName();

    private WeakReference<Context> contextWeakReference;
    private String fileName;

    public OpenLocalPDF(Context context, String fileName) {
        this.contextWeakReference = new WeakReference<>(context);
        this.fileName = fileName.endsWith("pdf") ? fileName : fileName + ".pdf";
    }

    public void execute() {

        Context context = contextWeakReference.get();
        if (context != null) {
            new CopyFileAsyncTask().execute();
        }

    }


    private class CopyFileAsyncTask extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, File> {


        final String appDirectoryName = BuildConfig.APPLICATION_ID;
        final File fileRoot = new File(Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(
                Environment.DIRECTORY_DOCUMENTS), appDirectoryName);

        @Override
        protected File doInBackground(Void... params) {

            Context context = contextWeakReference.get();

            AssetManager assetManager = context.getAssets();

            File file = new File(fileRoot, fileName);

            InputStream in = null;
            OutputStream out = null;
            try {

                file.mkdirs();

                if (file.exists()) {
                    file.delete();
                }

                file.createNewFile();


                in = assetManager.open(fileName);
                Log.d(TAG, "In");

                out = new FileOutputStream(file);
                Log.d(TAG, "Out");

                Log.d(TAG, "Copy file");
                copyFile(in, out);

                Log.d(TAG, "Close");
                in.close();

                out.flush();
                out.close();

                return file;
            } catch (Exception e)
            {
                Log.e(TAG, e.getMessage());
            }

            return null;
        }

        private void copyFile(InputStream in, OutputStream out) throws IOException
        {
            byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
            int read;
            while ((read = in.read(buffer)) != -1)
            {
                out.write(buffer, 0, read);
            }
        }

        @Override
        protected void onPostExecute(File file) {
            super.onPostExecute(file);

            Context context = contextWeakReference.get();


            Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
            intent.setDataAndType(
                    Uri.fromFile(file),
                    "application/pdf");

            context.startActivity(intent);

        }
    }
}

add this permission in Manifest.xml

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

Answer 4

like say sunsil , but in the case for external directory.

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.content.res.AssetManager;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.os.Environment;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
import java.io.BufferedOutputStream;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.OutputStream;


public class MainActivity extends Activity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        copyReadAssets();
    }


    private void copyReadAssets()
    {
        AssetManager assetManager = getAssets();

        InputStream in = null;
        OutputStream out = null;

        String strDir = Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS)+ File.separator + "Pdfs";
        File fileDir = new File(strDir);
        fileDir.mkdirs();   // crear la ruta si no existe
        File file = new File(fileDir, "example2.pdf");



        try
        {

            in = assetManager.open("example.pdf");  //leer el archivo de assets
            out = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(file)); //crear el archivo


            copyFile(in, out);
            in.close();
            in = null;
            out.flush();
            out.close();
            out = null;
        } catch (Exception e)
        {
            Log.e("tag", e.getMessage());
        }

        Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
        intent.setDataAndType(Uri.parse("file://" + Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS) + File.separator + "Pdfs" + "/example2.pdf"), "application/pdf");
        startActivity(intent);
    }

    private void copyFile(InputStream in, OutputStream out) throws IOException
    {
        byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
        int read;
        while ((read = in.read(buffer)) != -1)
        {
            out.write(buffer, 0, read);
        }
    }
}

change parts of code like these:

out = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(file));

the before example is for Pdfs, in case of to example .txt

FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(file);

Answer 5

try this:

public String getAssetsPdfPath(Context context) {
String filePath = context.getFilesDir() + File.separator + "myFile.pdf";
File destinationFile = new File(filePath);

try {
FileOutputStream outputStream = new FileOutputStream(destinationFile);
InputStream inputStream = context.getAssets().open("myFile.pdf");
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
int length = 0;
while ((length = inputStream.read(buffer)) != -1) {
outputStream.write(buffer, 0, length);
}
outputStream.close();
inputStream.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e(context.getClass().getSimpleName(), "Error.");
}

return destinationFile.getPath();
}

Answer 6

I had success, using the answer from cYrixmorten , with the OpenLocalPDF class.

But, Environment.DIRECTORY_DOCUMENTS is not supported for Android 18. To support Android 18 - 28, I had to make the following changes.

In "CopyFileAsyncTask", change the fileRoot declaration:

final File fileRoot = new File(Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(
        Environment.DIRECTORY_DOCUMENTS), appDirectoryName);

To this:

final File fileRoot = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/YourAppName");

In "onPostExecute", change this:

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setDataAndType(
        Uri.fromFile(file),
        "application/pdf");
context.startActivity(intent);

To this:

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setDataAndType(FileProvider.getUriForFile(context, "com.example.yourappname.provider", file), "application/pdf");
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION);
context.startActivity(intent);

Finally, setup your manifest to support the FileProvider as described in this post.

Answer 7

If you want to open a .pdf file that is stored locally in the assets folder without using an Intent to launch an external app, I suggest using the Android class PdfRenderer. Documentation found here .

This is a good example that worked for me.

However, this example wouldn't run when I downloaded it. I had to change it a bit to use the copyReadAssets() function as mentioned in the other answers here , then to reference the file (after it has been copied) I use:

File file = new File("/data/data/" + getContext().getPackageName() + "/files/mypdf.pdf");

I also ended up modifying onAttach() because it was using the deprecated form of onAttach() and closeRenderer() because it was throwing errors for closing objects that were null.

So my complete PdfRendererBasicFragment.java file looks like this:

package com.example.android.pdfrendererbasic;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.Fragment;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.res.AssetManager;

Manifest.xml:

            android:name="android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS"
            android:resource="@xml/file_paths" />
</provider>

file_paths.xml:

<paths>
    <files-path name="app_directory" path="directory/"/>
</paths>
