I am trying to read directory inside Documents folder created by my app (App A), the files that is created by my app(eg. Filename: abc.json) I am able to read it but if I created another file say xyz.json by other app let us say File Explorer then I am not able to read it.
I am using Medistore method to read file and in android 11. What should I do?
Code I am using to perform read:
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.R) {
if (Environment.isExternalStorageManager()==false) {
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction(Settings.ACTION_MANAGE_APP_ALL_FILES_ACCESS_PERMISSION);
Uri uri = Uri.fromParts("package", context.getPackageName(), null);
intent.setData(uri);
context.startActivity(intent);
}
}
try{
Uri contentUri = MediaStore.Files.getContentUri("external");
String selection = MediaStore.MediaColumns.RELATIVE_PATH + "=?";
String[] selectionArgs = new String[]{Environment.DIRECTORY_DOCUMENTS + "/"+folderName+"/"};
Cursor cursor =context.getContentResolver().query(contentUri, null, selection, selectionArgs, null);
Uri uri = null;
if (cursor.getCount() == 0) {
Toast.makeText(context, "No file found in \"" + Environment.DIRECTORY_DOCUMENTS + "/"+folderName+"\""+cursor.getCount(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} else {
while (cursor.moveToNext()) {
int filenameTemp=cursor.getColumnIndex(MediaStore.MediaColumns.DISPLAY_NAME);
String fileName = cursor.getString(filenameTemp);
if (fileName.equals(readFileName)) {
int idTemp=cursor.getColumnIndex(MediaStore.MediaColumns._ID);
long id = cursor.getLong(idTemp);
uri = ContentUris.withAppendedId(contentUri, id);
break;
}
}
if (uri == null) {
Toast.makeText(context, "\""+readFileName+"\" not found", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
} else {
try {
InputStream inputStream = context.getContentResolver().openInputStream(uri);
int size = inputStream.available();
byte[] bytes = new byte[size];
inputStream.read(bytes);
inputStream.close();
String jsonString = new String(bytes, StandardCharsets.UTF_8);
returnJsonString=jsonString;
} catch (IOException e) {
Toast.makeText(context.getApplicationContext(), "Fail to read file", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
You have two options.
Request MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE in manifest.
Let the user select the file with ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT
