Copy file from iOS 11 Files app to sandbox

问题

I want to copy a file from the iOS 11 Files app to my local app sandbox. For testing purposes it is assumed that the file is locally available in the Files app (downloaded from iCloud to the local storage). The file extension is registered with my app and when a file is pressed in the Files app then my app receives the file URL from the Files app:

NSFileCoordinator *fileCoordinator = [[NSFileCoordinator alloc] initWithFilePresenter:nil];

NSURL *nsUrl; // comes from Files app. For instance "file:///private/var/mobile/Library/Mobile%20Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs/test.rar"
NSURL *targetUrl; // file in my app's document directory

NSError *coordinatorError = nil;
[fileCoordinator coordinateReadingItemAtURL:nsUrl options:NSFileCoordinatorReadingWithoutChanges error:&coordinatorError byAccessor:^(NSURL *newURL) 
{   
    NSFileManager *fileManager = [NSFileManager defaultManager];
    //if ([fileManager fileExistsAtPath: [nsUrl path]])
    {
        NSLog(@"Copy from %@ to %@", newURL, targetUrl);

        NSError *copyError = nil;
        [fileManager copyItemAtURL:newURL toURL:targetUrl error:&copyError];
        if (!copyError)
        {
            // OK
        }
        else
        {
            NSLog(@"Files app error: %@", copyError);
        }
    }
}];

But the operation fails with this output:

2017-11-22 09:30:28.685127+0100 test[434:40101] Copy from file:///private/var/mobile/Library/Mobile%20Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs/test.rar
 to file:///var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/01BB33E6-2790-0FD0-8270-000/Documents/test.rar
2017-11-22 09:30:28.687174+0100 test[434:40101] Files app error: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=257 "The file “test.rar” couldn’t be 
opened because you don’t have permission to view it." 
UserInfo={NSFilePath=/private/var/mobile/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs/test.rar, 
NSUnderlyingError=0x1c084abf0 {Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=1 "Operation not permitted"}}

Is there something special required to get read access to the external file?

回答1:

Here is how you can access the files and stop when are done with it.

//To gain access
[nsUrl startAccessingSecurityScopedResource]

and

//To stop access
[nsUrl stopAccessingSecurityScopedResource]

i have the same issue to Copy file from iOS 11 Files app to sandbox . finally i solved my issue this link check here

and the sample code .

[fileURL startAccessingSecurityScopedResource];//fileURL ---> Which FileURL you want to copy

                NSFileCoordinator *fileCoordinator = [[NSFileCoordinator alloc] initWithFilePresenter:nil];

                NSFileAccessIntent *readingIntent = [NSFileAccessIntent readingIntentWithURL:fileURL options:NSFileCoordinatorReadingWithoutChanges];

                [fileCoordinator coordinateAccessWithIntents:@[readingIntent] queue:[NSOperationQueue mainQueue] byAccessor:^(NSError *error) {

                    NSData *filePathData;

                    if (!error)
                    {
                        // Always get URL from access intent. It might have changed.
                        NSURL *safeURL = readingIntent.URL;

                     // here your code to do what you want with this 

                    }

                    [fileURL stopAccessingSecurityScopedResource];

                }];
