android camera android.os.FileUriExposedException:

Question

This is the code

public void openCamera() {
    Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
    File file = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(), "image.jpg");
    imageURI = Uri.fromFile(file);
    intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, imageURI);
    startActivityForResult(intent, CAMERA);
}

Here is the error

E/AndroidRuntime: FATAL EXCEPTION: main
    Process: com.app.app, PID: 2971

Use this code to get uri for android N or upper :

private Uri getFileUri(Context context, Uri fileUri, File file) {
    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.N) {
        return FileProvider.getUriForFile(context, context.getPackageName() + ".provider", file);
    } else {
        return fileUri;
    }
}

and don't forget to add flag with intent :

intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION);

If your targetSdkVersion >= 24, you can not use file: Uri values in Intents on Android 7.0+ devices.You can change your code like this:

    Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
    ContentValues contentValues = new ContentValues(1);
    contentValues.put(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA, file.getAbsolutePath());
    Uri uri = getContentResolver().insert(MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, contentValues);
    intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, uri);
    startActivityForResult(intent, CAMERA);

i replace public void openCamera() { Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE); File file = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(), "image.jpg"); imageURI = Uri.fromFile(file); intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, imageURI); startActivityForResult(intent, CAMERA); } with that? — , Feb 21 '19 at 16:04
