Cordova navigator.camera.getPicture在Android 4.4 KitKat上以意外格式返回FILE_URI

Question

Before Kitkat navigator.camera.getPicture returned a Uri like this

content://media/external/images/media/3951 .

In Kitkat however it returns a Uri like this:

content://com.android.providers.media.documents/document/image:3951 

Example code using cordova-2.9.0:

gallery: function () {
  navigator.camera.getPicture(this.handleUri,
    function () {
      console.log('error retrieving imageURI');
      return false;
    },
    { quality: 100,
      destinationType: navigator.camera.DestinationType.FILE_URI,
      sourceType: navigator.camera.PictureSourceType.PHOTOLIBRARY }
  );
},

handleUri: function (imageURI) {
  //imageURI is in unexpected format content://com.android.providers.media.documents/document/image:3951            
}

How do we return the URI in the original format?

Answer 1

There is nothin wring with the URL.

It is no file URL it is a Content-URL. You should be able to work with that URL as well. If not, you may have to use a Content-Resolver .

What do you want to do with the URL? And what does note work?

Answer 2

use destinationType: navigator.camera.DestinationType.DATA_URL instead of destinationType: navigator.camera.DestinationType.FILE_URI
and add com.simplec.plugins.externalfiles plugin to your config.xml or
