cordova-plugin-filepath-generic

This plugin allows you to resolve the native filesystem path for Android content URIs and is based on code in the plugin cordova-plugin-filepath.

This version comes from a necessity because of the error "column data does not exist" when getting the file path on some phones.

I basicaly edited the getPath method and when the uri scheme is "content" it always call's the method getDriveFilePath that forces the creation of a temporary file with the content of uri received. then it returns the filepath of the temporary file.

Installation

$ cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-filepath-generic

Supported Platforms

• Android

Usage

Once installed the plugin defines the window.FilePath object. To resolve a file path:

window.FilePath.resolveNativePath('content://...', successCallback, errorCallback);

successCallback

Returns the file:// file path.

errorCallback

Returns the following object:

{ code: <integer>, message: <string> }

Possible error codes are:

• -1 - describes an invalid action
• 0 - file:// path could not be resolved
• 1 - the native path links to a cloud file (e.g: from Google Drive app)
