Capture Image from Camera and Display in Activity

Question

I want to write a module where on a click of a button the camera opens and I can click and capture an image. If I don\'t like the image I can delete it and click one more i

Answer 1

I created a dialog with the option to choose Image from gallery or camera. with a callback as

• Uri if the image is from the gallery
• String as a file path if the image is captured from the camera.
• Image as File the image chosen from camera needs to be uploaded on the internet as Multipart file data

At first we to define permission in AndroidManifest as we need to write external store while creating a file and reading images from gallery

Create a file_paths xml in app/src/main/res/xml/file_paths.xml

with path

Then we need to define file provier to generate Content uri to access file stored in external storage

Dailog Layout

ImagePicker Dailog

public class ImagePicker extends BottomSheetDialogFragment {

Call in Activity or fragment like this Define ImagePicker in Fragment/Activity

ImagePicker imagePicker;

Then call dailog on click of button

      imagePicker = new ImagePicker(new ImagePicker.GetImage() {
            @Override
            public void setGalleryImage(Uri imageUri) {

                Log.i("ImageURI", imageUri + "");

                String[] filePathColumn = {MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA};

                Cursor cursor = getContext().getContentResolver().query(imageUri, filePathColumn, null, null, null);
                assert cursor != null;
                cursor.moveToFirst();

                int columnIndex = cursor.getColumnIndex(filePathColumn[0]);
                mediaPath = cursor.getString(columnIndex);
                // Set the Image in ImageView for Previewing the Media
                imagePreview.setImageBitmap(BitmapFactory.decodeFile(mediaPath));
                cursor.close();

            }

            @Override
            public void setCameraImage(String filePath) {

                mediaPath =filePath;
                Glide.with(getContext()).load(filePath).into(imagePreview);

            }

            @Override
            public void setImageFile(File file) {

                cameraImage = file;

            }
        }, true);
        imagePicker.show(getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager(), imagePicker.getTag());
