How to share image with a button? [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
How to use "Share image using" sharing Intent to share images in android?
(17 answers)
Closed 2 years ago.
I am making QR code generator
So far I made a generator button and save button.
It works fine.
I am trying to work on the sharing button.
It takes a few days to figure out as a beginner and still I cannot make it work.
At this code, if I click share, then the app closes.
/**Barcode share*/
findViewById(R.id.share_barcode).setOnClickListener(v -> {
Bitmap b = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(),R.id.qr_image);
Intent share = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
share.setType("image/jpeg");
ByteArrayOutputStream bytes = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
b.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, bytes);
String path = MediaStore.Images.Media.insertImage(getContentResolver(), b, "Title", null);
Uri imageUri = Uri.parse(path);
share.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, imageUri);
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(share, "Select"));
});
I guessed the problem was path.
I use savepath to save qr code image. And then maybe it conflicts with String path
So I tried String savePath = Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_DCIM) + "/Camera/";;
It's not working. So maybe it's different problem and I don't know how to fix it.
Could you show me how to fix?
MainActivity

I think you can solve this by:
Saving the bitmap in a file.
Then sharing the URI of that file in the intent.
In the code below, I am saving the image at the app level directory, you can choose your own and the code is written in kotlin.
Note: If you are using an app-level directory for saving the image then you must use the file provide to get the URI else it may result in FileUriExposedException
try {
val file = File(getExternalFilesDir(null),System.currentTimeMillis().toString() + ".png")
file.createNewFile()
val b = imageView.drawable.toBitmap()
FileOutputStream(file).use { out ->
b.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, out)
}
val share = Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND)
share.type = "image/jpeg"
val photoURI = FileProvider.getUriForFile(this, applicationContext.packageName.toString() + ".provider", file)
share.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, photoURI)
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(share, "Share Image"))
Toast.makeText(this, "Completed!!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
} catch (e: IOException) {
e.printStackTrace()
Toast.makeText(this, e.message, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
}
In JAVA:
public void shareImage(Activity activity, ImageView imageView) {
try {
File file = new File(activity.getExternalFilesDir(null), System.currentTimeMillis() + ".png");
file.createNewFile();
Bitmap bitmap = drawableToBitmap(imageView.getDrawable());
FileOutputStream fOut = new FileOutputStream(file);
bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 85, fOut);
fOut.flush();
fOut.close();
Intent share = new Intent("android.intent.action.SEND");
share.setType("image/jpeg");
Uri photoURI = FileProvider.getUriForFile(activity,activity.getPackageName(), file);
share.putExtra("android.intent.extra.STREAM", photoURI);
activity.startActivity(Intent.createChooser(share, "Share Image"));
} catch (Exception var14) {
}
}
public static Bitmap drawableToBitmap (Drawable drawable) {
Bitmap bitmap;
if (drawable instanceof BitmapDrawable) {
BitmapDrawable bitmapDrawable = (BitmapDrawable) drawable;
if(bitmapDrawable.getBitmap() != null) {
return bitmapDrawable.getBitmap();
}
}
if(drawable.getIntrinsicWidth() <= 0 || drawable.getIntrinsicHeight() <= 0) {
bitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(1, 1, Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888); // Single color bitmap will be created of 1x1 pixel
} else {
bitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(drawable.getIntrinsicWidth(), drawable.getIntrinsicHeight(), Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
}
Canvas canvas = new Canvas(bitmap);
drawable.setBounds(0, 0, canvas.getWidth(), canvas.getHeight());
drawable.draw(canvas);
return bitmap;
}

How can I take Screenshots using Arcore?

I am trying to take a screenshot of my Augmented Reality Screen and pass it as a bitmap to another activity.
This is the code that I am using to take the screenshot:
Function to take screen shot
public static void tmpScreenshot(Bitmap bmp, Context context){
try {
//Write file
String filename = "bitmap.png";
FileOutputStream stream = context.openFileOutput(filename, Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
bmp.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, stream);
//Cleanup
stream.close();
bmp.recycle();
//Pop intent
Intent in1 = new Intent(context, CostActivity.class);
in1.putExtra("image", filename);
context.startActivity(in1);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
Function to receive screenshot
private void loadTmpBitmap() {
Bitmap bmp = null;
String filename = getIntent().getStringExtra("image");
try {
FileInputStream is = this.openFileInput(filename);
bmp = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(is);
ImageView imageView = findViewById(R.id.test);
imageView.setImageBitmap(Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(bmp, 120, 120, false));
is.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
Even though the Screenshot was taken, it was black when it is passed to another activity.
In addition, the Screenshot only appeared after I pressed the back button
Can anyone help me with the code to take a screenshot with ARCore? Or what am I doing wrong?

It is not possible to take a screenshot of a SurfaceView using your method. If you do then the screenshot will be black, as it only works for regular views.
What you need to use is pixelcopy.
private void takePhoto() {
ArSceneView view = arFragment.getArSceneView();
// Create a bitmap the size of the scene view.
final Bitmap bitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(view.getWidth(), view.getHeight(),
Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
// Create a handler thread to offload the processing of the image.
final HandlerThread handlerThread = new HandlerThread("PixelCopier");
handlerThread.start();
// Make the request to copy.
PixelCopy.request(view, bitmap, (copyResult) -> {
if (copyResult == PixelCopy.SUCCESS) {
try {
saveBitmapToDisk(bitmap);
} catch (IOException e) {
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(VisualizerActivity.this, e.toString(),
Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
toast.show();
return;
}
SnackbarUtility.showSnackbarTypeLong(settingsButton, "Screenshot saved in /Pictures/Screenshots");
} else {
SnackbarUtility.showSnackbarTypeLong(settingsButton, "Failed to take screenshot");
}
handlerThread.quitSafely();
}, new Handler(handlerThread.getLooper()));
}
public void saveBitmapToDisk(Bitmap bitmap) throws IOException {
// String path = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString() + "/Pictures/Screenshots/";
if (videoDirectory == null) {
videoDirectory =
new File(
Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES)
+ "/Screenshots");
}
Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
SimpleDateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH.mm.ss");
String formattedDate = df.format(c.getTime());
File mediaFile = new File(videoDirectory, "FieldVisualizer"+formattedDate+".jpeg");
FileOutputStream fileOutputStream = new FileOutputStream(mediaFile);
bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 70, fileOutputStream);
fileOutputStream.flush();
fileOutputStream.close();
}

Images are not being saved in my camera app

I'm trying to make an app that detects motion and takes picture when the motion is detected. Its saving the picture when I don't try to save it in the directory(folder). But when I try it with the directory, the picture is not being saved even though the directory is being created successfully.
What changes should I make to the following code in order to make it work:
private void createDirectoryAndSaveFile(String name, Bitmap bitmap) {
File folder = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() +
File.separator + "XYX APP");
boolean success = true;
if (!folder.exists()) {
success = folder.mkdirs();
}
if (success) {
// Do something on success
} else {
// Do something else on failure
}
File photo = new File(new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()+"XYZ APP/"), name+ ".jpg");
if (photo.exists()) {
photo.delete();
}
try {
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(photo.getPath());
bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, out);
out.flush();
out.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
Note: The file name is generated in the following instruction:
String name = "MotDet_"+String.valueOf(System.currentTimeMillis());
if (bitmap != null) createDirectoryAndSaveFile(name, bitmap);
Update
It works with the following code but not with the code above :
private void save(String name, Bitmap bitmap) {
File photo = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(), name + ".jpg");
if (photo.exists()) photo.delete();
try {
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(photo.getPath());
bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, fos);
fos.close();
} catch (java.io.IOException e) {
Log.e("PictureDemo", "Exception in photoCallback", e);
}
}

First of all you missed the FileSeperator before xyz
File photo = new File(folder.getAbsolutePath()+"/XYZ APP/"+ name+ ".jpg");
And your Function becomes
private void createDirectoryAndSaveFile(String name, Bitmap bitmap) {
File folder = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() +
File.separator + "XYZ APP");//here you have created different name
boolean success = true;
if (!folder.exists()) {
success = folder.mkdirs();
}
if (success) {
// Do something on success
} else {
// Do something else on failure
}
File photo = new File(folder.getAbsolutePath(), name+ ".jpg");
if (photo.exists()) {
photo.delete();
}
try {
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(photo.getPath());
bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, out);
out.flush();
out.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
Marshmello comes with RuntimePermissions in order for you to save file in external directory you need to ask permission first, like below code
public boolean isStoragePermissionGranted() {
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 23) {
if (checkSelfPermission(android.Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)
== PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
Log.v(TAG,"Permission is granted");
return true;
} else {
Log.v(TAG,"Permission is revoked");
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, new String[]{Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE}, 1);
return false;
}
}
else { //permission is automatically granted on sdk<23 upon installation
Log.v(TAG,"Permission is granted");
return true;
}
}
permission result callback
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, String[] permissions, int[] grantResults) {
super.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);
if(grantResults[0]== PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED){
Log.v(TAG,"Permission: "+permissions[0]+ "was "+grantResults[0]);
//resume tasks needing this permission
}
}
before saving call isStoragePermissionsGranted() if it returns true proceed saving file.

Try this code :
String partFilename = currentDateFormat();
storeCameraPhotoInSDCard(bp, partFilename);
private String currentDateFormat(){
SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMdd_HH_mm_ss");
String currentTimeStamp = dateFormat.format(new Date());
return currentTimeStamp;
}
private void storeCameraPhotoInSDCard(Bitmap bitmap, String currentDate){
File outputFile = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(), "photo_" + currentDate + ".jpg");
try {
FileOutputStream fileOutputStream = new FileOutputStream(outputFile);
bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, fileOutputStream);
fileOutputStream.flush();
fileOutputStream.close();
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
This code is work for me..Save image to directory.

You have to get permission of external storage at run time in android 6.0 and above to write in SDCard
Read Run time Permission
add in manifest.xml
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
replace your function with below one
private void createDirectoryAndSaveFile(String name, Bitmap bitmap) {
File folder = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() +
File.separator + "XYZ APP");//here you have created different name
boolean success = true;
if (!folder.exists()) {
success = folder.mkdirs();
}
if (success) {
// Do something on success
} else {
// Do something else on failure
}
File photo = new File(folder.getAbsolutePath(), name+ ".jpg"); //use path of above created folder
if (photo.exists()) {
photo.delete();
}
try {
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(photo.getPath());
bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, out);
out.flush();
out.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}

Resize captured image before save

I'm trying to resize the captured image so that it can has a size smaller than 1Mb. This is what I'm tried so far in OnActivityResult but failed. I'm get the tutorial from Android take photo and resize it before saving on sd card
ImageFitScreen.java
try {
Bitmap bitmap;
BitmapFactory.Options bitmapOptions = new BitmapFactory.Options();
bitmapOptions.inJustDecodeBounds = false;
bitmapOptions.inPreferredConfig = Bitmap.Config.RGB_565;
bitmapOptions.inDither = true;
bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(f.getAbsolutePath(), bitmapOptions);
Global.img = bitmap;
b.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
String path = android.os.Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + File.separator + "Phoenix" + File.separator + "default";
//p = path;
f.delete();
OutputStream outFile = null;
File file = new File(path, String.valueOf(System.currentTimeMillis()) + ".png");
try {
outFile = new FileOutputStream(file);
bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, outFile);
//pic=file;
outFile.flush();
outFile.close();
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
Claims.java
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View arg0) {
if ((name != null && name.trim().length() > 0) && (result != null && result.trim().length() > 0)) {
// Toast.makeText(getActivity().getApplicationContext(), fk+"", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
byte[] data=getBitmapAsByteArray(getActivity(),Global.img);// this is a function
Toast.makeText(getActivity().getApplicationContext(), data+"", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
if(data==null)
{
Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "null", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
else
{
Toast.makeText(getActivity(), " not null", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
SB.insertStaffBenefit(name, data, description, result, fk);
}
});
return claims;
}
public static byte[] getBitmapAsByteArray(final Context context,Bitmap bitmap) {
ByteArrayOutputStream outputStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 0, outputStream);
Toast.makeText(context, outputStream.size()/1024+"KB", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
return outputStream.toByteArray();
}
In Claims.java, it still display the size which is more than 1Mb
Can someone help me? Thanks

How to resize Image in Android?
For better UI give toast to the user asking to upload image of specific size still he uploads larger image check it in backend or server and give negative response or prompt hi to again upload image of smaller size.

How do I save an image after modifying it

I can load the picture to the background then I have also been able to "sketchify" it but when I try to save it so that I can email it as an attachment I can only figure out haw to grab the original image and what I have here makes the activity close
public void startCamera(View v) {
Intent takePicture = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
seek.setVisibility(View.GONE);
if (takePicture.resolveActivity(getPackageManager()) != null) {
picSpot = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(),
"sketch.png");
outputFileUri = Uri.fromFile(picSpot);
takePicture.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, outputFileUri);
startActivityForResult(takePicture, REQUEST_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
}
}
public void sendPic(View v) {
Intent sharePic = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
if (didsketch == false) {
sharePic.setType("image/png");
sharePic.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, outputFileUri);
sharePic.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Check This Out!");
sharePic.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT,
"I did this on my Sketchify App!");
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sharePic, "Send Email"));
} else {
try {
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(finalSpot);
back.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 90, out);
out.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
outputFileUri = Uri.fromFile(finalSpot);
sharePic.setType("image/png");
sharePic.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, outputFileUri);
sharePic.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Check This Out!");
sharePic.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT,
"I did this on my Sketchify App!");
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sharePic, "Send Email"));
}
}
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
sketchit.setEnabled(true);
if (requestCode == REQUEST_IMAGE_CAPTURE && resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
DisplayMetrics metrics = this.getResources().getDisplayMetrics();
screenHeight = metrics.heightPixels;
screenWidth = metrics.widthPixels;
location = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()
+ "/sketch.png";
back = Camera_Helpers.processImage(location, screenHeight,
screenWidth);
taken = true;
sketchit.setEnabled(taken);
shareit.setEnabled(taken);
image.setImageBitmap(back);
}
}
back is the modified bitmap i am trying to eventually attach to the email
Thanks!!!

Create Folder Directory and Save image into it: create directory where you want to save your images. Suppose the folder name is ImageFolder.
String location = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/ImageFolder/";
//Creating Folder Directory
File imageDir = new File(location);
dir.mkdirs();
//Creating Image file
String imageName = "sketch.png";
File imageFile = new File(imageDir, imageName);
//If image file already exists then delete it.
if (imageFile.exists()) {
imageFile.delete();
}
//Writing the image to SDCard
try {
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(imageFile);
back.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, out);
out.flush();
out.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
