How do i launch camera after clicking input file in my webviewer?

Alex123 · February 23, 2023, 7:31am

I have created a webview which allow user to take a picture with the camera app and upload their file into the database. The application is able to get the image. However after submitting, i got a "net:ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND" . Here's a screenshot of my blocks and output.

What is the value of the content uri you are trying to upload?
I'm not sure, if setting the FileAccess property like this is correct... @vknow360 ?

You are right, it is incorrect.
If FileAccess property is enabled only then that event is invoked.

github.com

vknow360/CustomWebView/blob/beta/com/sunny/CustomWebView/CustomWebView.java#L1241


      
          public void onCloseWindow(WebView window) {

              OnCloseWindowRequest(getIndex(window));

          }

          

          @Override

          public void onProgressChanged(WebView view, int newProgress) {

              OnProgressChanged(getIndex(view), newProgress);

          }

          

          @Override

          public boolean onConsoleMessage(ConsoleMessage consoleMessage) {

              OnConsoleMessage(consoleMessage.message(), consoleMessage.lineNumber(), consoleMessage.lineNumber(), consoleMessage.messageLevel().toString());

              return true;

          }

          

          @Override

          public void onPermissionRequest(PermissionRequest request) {

              if (!prompt) {

                  request.grant(request.getResources());

              } else {

                  permissionRequest = request;

So it must be set just next to SetWebView method.

Hey @vknow360, I am sorry I don't understand on implementing this. Could you maybe screenshot a sample for demonstration? Also, I wish to upload a content of image @Taifun

Taifun · February 24, 2023, 1:34am

Alex123 · February 24, 2023, 2:19am

@Kevinkun tested it but the application has lead me into this error

Here's a screenshot of my updated block.

The MakeFullPath block does not make sense in your case.. you are working with a remote url, don't you?

Taifun

Alex123 · February 24, 2023, 2:53am

yes

Kevinkun · February 24, 2023, 3:00am

this works:

@Taifun since this file:// is not needed, please remove it from source code, so it can accept full path and absulute path.

EDIT:
In fact, this TaifunFile.GetUri is not necessary.

this also works (if the image path starts with "file:///"):

Alex123 · February 24, 2023, 3:10am

Still having this error

Here's the block

Kevinkun · February 24, 2023, 3:11am

read my last post again.

Alex123 · February 24, 2023, 3:16am

OMG this solution finally works! Thanks @Kevinkun appreciate it

Kevinkun · February 24, 2023, 3:18am

this is my fault to direct you to use another extension to change path to Uri.
in fact this contentUri accept full path.

Alex123 · February 24, 2023, 3:40am

@Kevinkun FYI, this works on AI Companion Emulator. However, it doesn't work after being exported into .APK file. Any suggestions on this?

Taifun · February 24, 2023, 3:55am

What is the path to the taken image?
Use additionally a label in the After Picture event to display it...

Taifun

Kevinkun · February 24, 2023, 4:10am

It's working on my phone after install the apk.
My phone is Android 11. What's yours? Maybe you need to manually ask reading permission.
