In my app i want to get user permission to read and write data on external storage, i have put permission tag in my manifest as below. But when installing app or running and whe
in android API >= 23 you need to request permission at runtime. Take a look here
Something like this
// Here, thisActivity is the current activity
if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(thisActivity,
Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)
!= PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
// Permission is not granted
// Should we show an explanation?
if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(thisActivity,
Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)) {
// Show an explanation to the user *asynchronously* -- don't block
// this thread waiting for the user's response! After the user
// sees the explanation, try again to request the permission.
} else {
// No explanation needed; request the permission
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(thisActivity,
new String[]{Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE},
MY_PERMISSIONS_WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE);
// MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_READ_CONTACTS is an
// app-defined int constant. The callback method gets the
// result of the request.
}
} else {
// Permission has already been granted
}
however, Ted permission library is a gread lib to avoid such boilerplate code.
//call back after permission granted
PermissionListener permissionlistener = new PermissionListener() {
@Override
public void onPermissionGranted() {
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Permission Granted", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
@Override
public void onPermissionDenied(List deniedPermissions) {
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Permission Denied\n" + deniedPermissions.toString(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
};
//check all needed permissions together
TedPermission.with(this)
.setPermissionListener(permissionlistener)
.setDeniedMessage("If you reject permission,you can not use this service\n\nPlease turn on permissions at [Setting] > [Permission]")
.setPermissions(Manifest.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE, Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)
.check();
