I believe this would be something you fix within your project.

cordova-plugin-file version 8.0.0 has removed permission WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE.

If you are using a plugin that depends on cordova-plugin-file make sure it is requesting for version 8.0.0.

If it is not, check if there is a new plugin version that hopefully supports cordova-plugin-file 8.0.0.

Note: Some Cordova core plugins depend on the file plugin and not updated, but it is in the process of being updated.

If you are adding the cordova-plugin-file directly and it is not a depedency of another plugin, it might be OK to bump its version.

That is exactly how I fixed it 😄 and seeing the original PR already mentioning this issue I removed the question.

On an Android 8.0 (and 7.1.1) device it fails after it asks for permission the first time with the following error

If I then choose to pick a picture using using Camera.PictureSourceType.PHOTOLIBRARY it requests permission for storage and after that the Camera.PictureSourceType.CAMERA also works again.

I am calling getPicture like so

navigator.camera.getPicture(this.onCameraSuccess.bind(this), this.onCameraError.bind(this), {
    quality: 50,
    destinationType: Camera.DestinationType.DATA_URL,
    sourceType: Camera.PictureSourceType.CAMERA,
    allowEdit: false,
    encodingType: Camera.EncodingType.JPEG,
    correctOrientation: true,
    targetWidth: 1024,
    targetHeight: 1024
});

It appears to be because of this line in the plugin; on my phone the content store is aparently on the external storage.

        // Save the number of images currently on disk for later
        this.numPics = queryImgDB(whichContentStore()).getCount();

It appears the checkForDuplicateImage needs access to the storage even if you take a picture without saving it anywhere.

I worked around/fixed it by changing

        boolean saveAlbumPermission;
        if (this.saveToPhotoAlbum) {
            saveAlbumPermission = hasPermissions(storagePermissions);
        } else {
            saveAlbumPermission = true;
        }

to

        boolean saveAlbumPermission = hasPermissions(storagePermissions);

Seeing as even when not saving the image you still need storage permission to process duplicates.

@christiaan I updated the PR to fix the Android 8.0 and lower issue you reported. Can you confirm if it resolved for you?

[christiaan]

@erisu I can confirm the last commit resolved the issue on Android 8.0 (Samsung A3 2017) 👍 thanks!

Just an update, I tested this PR against my app and it seems good to go, at least in my usage of the camera plugin.
