1. Add ExFilePicker library as a dependency to your project
2. Add next code into your project where is needed:
import ru.bartwell.exfilepicker.ExFilePicker;
import ru.bartwell.exfilepicker.ExFilePickerParcelObject;
// ...
private static final int EX_FILE_PICKER_RESULT = 0;
// ...
Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), ru.bartwell.exfilepicker.ExFilePickerActivity.class);
startActivityForResult(intent, EX_FILE_PICKER_RESULT);
// ...
@Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (requestCode == EX_FILE_PICKER_RESULT) {
if (data != null) {
ExFilePickerParcelObject object = (ExFilePickerParcelObject) data.getParcelableExtra(ExFilePickerParcelObject.class.getCanonicalName());
if (object.count > 0) {
// Here is object contains selected files names and path
}
}
}
}3. Add activity in your Manifest:
<activity
android:name="ru.bartwell.exfilepicker.ExFilePickerActivity"
android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize"
android:theme="@style/ExFilePickerThemeDark" />4. If you need a "New folder" button, add permission in your Manifest:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />ExFilePicker can be configurated via intent extras.
