[Android] Throw error while compressing image

[kerm1it]

When compressing image with path follow: content://media/external/images/media/78550

It throw a error: [Error: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'int android.graphics.Bitmap.getWidth()' on a null object reference]

It look like content://media/external/images/media/78550 is not identified.

@kerm1it we need the absolute path for compression, if you wanna fix this issue then you can do like this for android

import RNFS from 'react-native-fs';

const destPath = `${RNFS.TemporaryDirectoryPath}/${shortid.generate()}`;
await RNFS.copyFile(selectedDocument.uri, destPath);

then you can send deskPath for compression
