如何在Android中将`content：// media / external / images / media / Y`转换为`file：/// storage / sdcard0 / Pictures / X.jpg`？

Question

I'm trying to upload image to Google Drive from my android app,

based on this tutorial .

When I debug their sample project I see a typical fileUri =

file:///storage/sdcard0/Pictures/IMG_20131117_090231.jpg

In my app I want to upload an existing photo.

I retrieve its path like that

     private void GetAnyImage()
        {
            File dir = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()
            .getAbsolutePath() + "/Pictures/Screenshots"); 
                              // --> /storage/sdcard0/Pictures/Screenshots

            Log.d("File path ", dir.getPath());
            String dirPath=dir.getAbsolutePath();
            if(dir.exists() && dir.isDirectory()) {
                Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT, null);
                intent.setType("image/*");
                startActivityForResult(intent,REQUEST_ID);
            }  
        }

and eventually get this typical fileUri = content://media/external/images/media/74275

however when running this line of code

  private void saveFileToDrive() {

    //  progressDialog = ProgressDialog.show(this, "", "Loading...");

    Thread t = new Thread(new Runnable() {
      @Override
      public void run() {
        try {
          // File's binary content
          java.io.File fileContent = new java.io.File(fileUri.getPath());
          FileContent mediaContent = new FileContent("image/jpeg", fileContent);

      // File's metadata.
      File body = new File();
      body.setTitle(fileContent.getName());
      body.setMimeType("image/jpeg");

      File file = service.files().insert(body, mediaContent).execute();

I get an error:

java.io.FileNotFoundException: /external/images/media/74275: open failed: ENOENT (No such file or directory)

how can I solve this?

how to convert content://media/external/images/media/Y to file:///storage/sdcard0/Pictures/X.jpg ?

Answer 1

Will something like this work for you? What this does is query the content resolver to find the file path data that is stored for that content entry

public static String getRealPathFromUri(Context context, Uri contentUri) {
    Cursor cursor = null;
    try {
        String[] proj = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };
        cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(contentUri, proj, null, null, null);
        int column_index = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA);
        cursor.moveToFirst();
        return cursor.getString(column_index);
    } finally {
        if (cursor != null) {
            cursor.close();
        }
    }
}

This will end up giving you an absolute file path that you can construct a file uri from

Answer 2

If you just want the bitmap, This too works

InputStream inputStream = mContext.getContentResolver().openInputStream(uri);
Bitmap bmp = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(inputStream);
if( inputStream != null ) inputStream.close();

sample uri : content://media/external/images/media/12345
