Build test APK

That's it?

@VishalNehra Um, yes... The main problem was a trailing /storage_root to the path. I used FileUtils#fromContentUri to get rid of that - seems like that works during initial testing. Need more testing though, from different file locations.

Working great! Nice work! However, as asked originally, it's better if we can also scroll to the item and highlight it. It's super useful specially for places with large directory items.

[VishnuSanal]

@VishalNehra Oops! I forgot about that altogether 🙈 Will look into it, ASAP

@VishalNehra AFU only gives the path to the containing folder! How to scroll to the selected file with this path?

[VishalNehra]

@VishnuSanal It doesn't give path to the file?

[VishnuSanal]

@VishalNehra Nope, please note, I just loaded the path - didn't trim the name or anything

[VishnuSanal]

@VishalNehra Maybe, we can do something for AFU only, and ship it as is for intents from other apps.

Add the file name or path to the bundle from AFU, with key starting with our package name. Then, we can check for it & handle that case.

What say?

Edit: Convo continued here

Why is the build failing?

Why is the build failing?

Um... I can't find a reason, running spotlessApply on local do not generate any changes. Even Android Build CI / Check spotless (push) passes. Any suggestions?

Try running cleaning project and rebuilding.
