Native Gallery for Android & iOS [Open Source]

Hey, have you been able to tested it. Seems like the new image picker in android 13 comes with a bunch of new features like no runtime permissions and so on that can break the entire plugin if there is no device android version check before picking a file. Hope you endup with a good result. Thanks

 

Not yet, today hopefully I'd recommend checking the GitHub page tomorrow or tonight. PS. There was a last minute intervention, so not yet I'm sorry.

 

I am facing issue in android 13 .
While using gallery for taking pictures it's redirect to native permission screen event is permission is granted .this happens only in Android 13

 

Hi! I couldn't understand the problem. You said the permission is granted, so what is the issue you're encountering?

 

any solution for this problem I add sound on button click but it comes after when i close the share popup in app or game.
to get sound instant not after closing the share popup.

 

If launching the share popup 1 frame after the button click (via a coroutine) doesn't help, then you need to either wait for the sound to finish or unfortunately not play the sound at all. Since Unity activity loses focus, it's normal for the sound to be interrupted, as well.

 

Hi
I just want to open the gallery and see the saved image.
pls help!.

 

Detailed manual is here: https://github.com/yasirkula/UnityNativeGallery

 

I can't find the correct code bro.
i just need to open the gallery or open the captured image in gallery bro.
Pls help me

 

@thisisajaikumar Hi! NativeGallery unfortunately doesn't have a function to open the Gallery with the provided image file path. Application.OpenURL might work but I haven't tried it myself.

 

Hi Actually i tried that way, that's not working.

 

Unfortunately I can't help with this issue

 

Hello here! Thanks to the developer for the wonderful plugin! Tell me how can I just open a gallery and a specific album?

 

Hi! Unfortunately you can't do this with NativeGallery.

 

Good! Can I get a list of images in a specific album and display these images inside the application?

 

If you can get the album's file path by some other means, then you can query the files inside it via Directory.GetFiles and display them in your user interface.

 

Hello.
Is it possible to have a callback called when the user has granted or denied write permission? I want to have a change in the apps UI after the use has either granted or denied permission.

Code (CSharp):

1. NativeGallery.RequestPermission

is a synchronous method, so I cannot wait and respond to the user's input on the OS permission popup. Is there some sort of condition I could use in an

Code (CSharp):

1. IEnumerator

to yield return null until that condition is met? (i.e., when the OS permission popup has been dismissed?

 

There isn't an async variant of that function. That function halts the program's execution until the user responds to the OS permission popup. So you can call the function and then check the returned value in the next line to determine if the permission was granted.

 

Is there a way to remove the media after importing? Like:,

Code (CSharp):

1. public void DeleteMedia()
2.     {
3.         if (File.Exists(mediaFilePath))
4.         {
5.             NativeGallery.DeleteMedia(mediaFilePath, MediaType.Image);
6.             Debug.Log("Media file deleted successfully.");
7.         }
8.         else
9.         {
10.             Debug.Log("Media file not found.");
11.         }
12.     }

 

@Leuki Unfortunately not. GetImageFromGallery sometimes can't determine the image's original path anyways (natively copies it from a stream to temporaryCachePath), a delete function won't work in those cases.

 

Is it possible to open both front and back camera at the same time in unity?

 

@Shreenath1322 Not with any of my plugins, sorry.

 

Hey, awesome job on the package. I do have a bit of a distinct use-case. Long story short, the package supports saving Images to a specific album but doesn't support loading from a specific album. I just wanted to ask if it is possible to achieve this? Currently my whole Gallery is being shown on load but I just need to display images from the album created by the game. Awaiting response, thanks.

 

@dev_unity857 That's unfortunately not possible with this plugin.

ECPoint, SecP256R1Curve kind of classes are coming from the Best Http/2 unity asset that I have used for network communication in my game. I couldn't find the relation between NGPermissionCallbackAndroid.OnPermissionResult and the http library because there is no native calls to OnPermissionResult method from there.

There is no specific Android version, and mostly happening during the app launch which we won't initiate a file selection.

Do you have an idea about what is happening and how can I solve the issue?

Thank you so much!

 

@gamedev_co I can't make sense of this stacktrace either. OnPermissionResult is called lots of times and it's combined with handshake stuff even though the native code has no networking functions in it. I'd recommend making sure that no NativeGallery function is called at the time of crash. Perhaps someone added a RequestPermission function somewhere without your knowledge. Otherwise I'm as clueless as you are :]

 

@yasirkula I see the same problem sometimes

The most strange part is that RequestPermission wasn't called anywhere in the app before this crash. I don't know how this possible. And also on one previous project I have seen the same kind of stack trace with NGPermissionCallbackAndroid that wasn't called anywhere before. How is it possible that it gets in StackTrace?

 

I was gonna suggest an infinite loop that calls NativeGallery.RequestPermission but since you mentioned it isn't used anywhere there, I'm unfortunately as clueless as you are. NativeGallery doesn't inject native code to other parts of the application and is invoked only manually.

 

hello @yasirkula the first thing: thanks for the great asset.

now, with what im struggling:
I want to save the picture on the directory: Application.persistentDataPath.
reading the thread, I see you says to do this using: File.WriteAllBytes

my problem is what I dont know how to do the save of the resized picture (resized by specifying the maxSize)
this is my code so far:

Code (CSharp):

1.     private Texture2D imageToSave;
2.     public string SaveName;
3.     public string SavePath;
4.     public int maxSize;
5.  
6.     void Start()
7.     {
8.         PickImage(maxSize); //the int value is the max size of the image
9.     }
10.  
11.     private void PickImage(int maxSize)
12.     {
13.         NativeGallery.Permission permission = NativeGallery.GetImageFromGallery((path) =>
14.         {
15.             Debug.Log("Image path: " + path);
16.             if (path != null)
17.             {
18.                 // Create Texture from selected image
19.                 imageToSave = NativeGallery.LoadImageAtPath(path, maxSize, false); //false makes the the texture readeable
20.                 if (imageToSave == null)
21.                 {
22.                     Debug.Log("Couldn't load texture from " + path);
23.                     return;
24.                 }
25.  
26.                 // Assign texture to a temporary quad and destroy it after 5 seconds
27.                 GameObject quad = GameObject.CreatePrimitive(PrimitiveType.Quad);
28.                 quad.transform.position = Camera.main.transform.position + Camera.main.transform.forward * 2.5f;
29.                 quad.transform.forward = Camera.main.transform.forward;
30.                 quad.transform.localScale = new Vector3(1f, imageToSave.height / (float)imageToSave.width, 1f);
31.  
32.                 Material material = quad.GetComponent<Renderer>().material;
33.                 if (!material.shader.isSupported) // happens when Standard shader is not included in the build
34.                     material.shader = Shader.Find("Legacy Shaders/Diffuse");
35.  
36.                 material.mainTexture = imageToSave;
37.  
38.                 //Destroy(quad, 5f);
39.  
40.                 // If a procedural texture is not destroyed manually,
41.                 // it will only be freed after a scene change
42.                 //Destroy(texture, 5f);
43.             }
44.         });
45.         Debug.Log("Permission result: " + permission);
46.  
47.     }
48.  
49.     public void SavePicture() //call it from a button to save the picture
50.     {
51.         StartCoroutine(PickedPictureSaveV2());
52.     }
53.  
54.     private IEnumerator PickedPictureSaveV2()
55.     {
56.         yield return new WaitForEndOfFrame();
57.         var bytes = imageToSave.EncodeToJPG(); //I think I need to replace this somehow to save the resized picture
58.         Destroy(imageToSave);

62.

70.      
71. #endif
72.     }

can you give me some guidance?, thanks

 

@elfasito Hi! Are you trying to save a resized screenshot or save a resized image that's picked from Gallery via GetImageFromGallery?

 

@yasirkula Hi, the second, Im trying to save a resized image picked from the gallery

PS: just now I noticed the name of the function for saving, Its not related lol, I changed it right now.

 

Code (CSharp):

1. NativeGallery.GetImageFromGallery((path) =>
2. {
3.     if (path != null)
4.     {
5.         Texture2D imageToSave = NativeGallery.LoadImageAtPath(path, maxSize, false);
6.         if (imageToSave != null)
7.             File.WriteAllBytes(Application.persistentDataPath + "/Claims/" + Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(path) + ".png", imageToSave.EncodeToPNG());      
8.     }
9. }

 

@yasirkula thanks Sir, I will test it later.

 

@yasirkula
Hello, sorry for bothering you again, the previous method works nice.

Now Im trying to use the method: NativeGallery.LoadImageAtPathAsync()
but I cant make it work (novice stuff)
Can you provide a little example of how to use?.
Im trying to simply replace to:

Code (CSharp):

1. Texture2D imageToSave = NativeGallery.LoadImageAtPathAsync(path, maxSize, false);

but says I cant convert a task to Texture2d

 

Texture2D imageToSave = await NativeGallery.LoadImageAtPathAsync(path, maxSize, false);

and make sure that the method is

async

.

 

@yasirkula thanks again, I ended with some a more complex solution, but works:

Code (CSharp):

1. public void GetImageFromGallery() //this only works on android/ios or emulators, save to file not works on unity editor
2.     {
3.         NativeGallery.Permission permission = NativeGallery.GetImageFromGallery((fileLocation) =>
4.         {
5.             if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(fileLocation))
6.             {
7.                 return;
8.             }
9.             else
10.             {
11.                 internalFileLocation = fileLocation;;
12.                 StartCoroutine(LoadImageFromGallery());
13.             }
14.         });
15.     }
16.  
17.     private IEnumerator LoadImageFromGallery()
18.     {
19.         var tempTexture = NativeGallery.LoadImageAtPathAsync(internalFileLocation, 1536, false);
20.  
21.         while (!tempTexture.IsCompleted)
22.         {
23.             yield return null;
24.         }
25.  
26.         var texture = tempTexture.Result;
27.         if (texture != null)
28.         {
29.             var rect = new Rect(0, 0, texture.width, texture.height);
30.             var pixelsPerUnit = 100;
31.             var sprite = Sprite.Create(texture, rect, Vector2.zero, pixelsPerUnit, 1, SpriteMeshType.Tight);
32.             faceImage.sprite = sprite;
33.             var bytes = texture.EncodeToJPG();
34.  
35. #if UNITY_EDITOR
36.             File.WriteAllBytes(Application.streamingAssetsPath + "/Claims/" + SaveName + ".jpg", bytes);
37.             Debug.Log("Picture resized saved on: " + Application.streamingAssetsPath + "/Claims/");
38. #endif
39. #if !UNITY_EDITOR && UNITY_ANDROID || UNITY_IOS //if its android or iOS
40.             File.WriteAllBytes(Application.persistentDataPath + "/Claims/" + SaveName + ".jpg", bytes);
41.             Debug.Log("Picture resized saved on: " + Application.persistentDataPath + "/Claims/");
42. #endif
43.         }
44.  
45.         if (texture == null)
46.         {
47.             Debug.Log("Cant found a picture to load");
48.         }
49.     }

 

Happy to hear that ^^

 

@yasirkula Im using the NativeGallery to load an image to a texture from mobiles and then to upload it on Firebase storage. The image loaded successfully on the texture but when i m trying to upload it on Firebase with iphone iOS fails.

I think the path is strange --> path: /var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/A1F05F8E-B0C1-4680-A051-B3FAEF0EE7F4/Library/Caches/pickedMedia1.heic

Important note: The same code working fine on Android and on Unity Editor. Only with iphone iOS can't upload the image.

Any idea why?
Thanks in advance.

Code (CSharp):

1. imagePath = "";
2.         NativeGallery.Permission permission = NativeGallery.GetImageFromGallery((path) =>
3.         {
4.             imagePath = path;
5.  
6.             Debug.Log("Image path: " + imagePath);
7.             if (path != null)
8.             {
9.                 // Create Texture from selected image
10.                 Texture2D Imagetexture = NativeGallery.LoadImageAtPath(path, maxSize, true, true);
11.  
12.                 GalleryRawImage.color = Color.white;
13.                 GalleryRawImage.texture = Imagetexture;
14. }
15.         });
16.  
17.         print("GalleryRawImage.texture:  " + GalleryRawImage.texture);
18.         Debug.Log("Permission result: " + permission);
19.  
20. var newMetadata = new MetadataChange();
21.        newMetadata.ContentType = "image/jpeg";
22.  
23.        //Create a reference to where the file needs to be uploaded
24.        StorageReference uploadRef = storageReference.Child(firebasePath);
25.  
26.  uploadRef.PutBytesAsync(bytes, newMetadata).ContinueWithOnMainThread((task) =>
27.         {
28.            if (task.IsFaulted || task.IsCanceled)
29.            {
30.                Debug.Log(task.Exception.ToString());
31.            }
32.            else
33.            {
34.                Debug.Log("File Uploaded Successfully!");
35.  
36.                uploadRef.GetDownloadUrlAsync().ContinueWith((task) =>  //Get Firebase URL link
37.                {
38.                    if (task.IsFaulted || task.IsCanceled)
39.                    {
40.                        Debug.Log(task.Exception.ToString());
41.                        printOnConsole(task.Exception.ToString());
42.                        // Uh-oh, an error occurred!
43.                    }
44.                    else
45.                    {
46.                        firebaseUrl = (task.Result.OriginalString);
47.                        Debug.Log(task.Result.OriginalString);  //Get Firebase URL link
48.                    }
49.  
50.                });
51.            }
52.  
53.        });
54.  

 

Your web server may not support HEIC format if you're assigning the selected image file's bytes directly to the bytes array. Rather, you can call Imagetexture.EncodeToJPG or EncodeToPNG to get the bytes array in the specified format (this will convert the Texture to a JPG/PNG image file). You need to pass false as the 3rd parameter of LoadImageAtPath for this to work.

 

@crackbrain94 I'm trying something similar, but the pictures I upload are deteriorating in pixel quality and the color turns orange. Did you have a similar problem

 

Hi, Im using this asset and for some reason on some android device(It's look like android 12 and below), the file explorer don't work.
this is my code:

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. NativeGallery.GetImageFromGallery(path =>
3.             {
4.                 if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(path))
5.                 {
6.                     log.logMsg(LogType.Log, $"{nameof(InboxPopup)}: AddAttachmentImageFile(), Did Not Fetch File");
7.                 }
8.                 else
9.                 {
10.                     log.logMsg(LogType.Log, $"{nameof(InboxPopup)}: AddAttachmentImageFile(), Success !, File Path: {path}");
11.                     FileInfo currentSelectedFileInfo = new FileInfo(path);
12.                     log.logMsg(LogType.Log, $"File Size: {currentSelectedFileInfo.Length}");
13.  
14.                     string currentSelectedFileAttachmentPath = path;
15.                     _fileAttachmentObject.SetActive(true);
16.                     _fileAttachmentNameText.text = currentSelectedFileInfo.Name;
17.                     var fileSizeInMB = currentSelectedFileInfo.Length / 1000000f;
18.  
19.                     _fileAttachmentSizeText.text = IsCurrentSelectedFileSizeOk(currentSelectedFileInfo)
20.                         ? string.Format(FILE_ATTACHMENT_SIZE_TEXT, fileSizeInMB, string.Empty)
21.                         : string.Format(FILE_ATTACHMENT_SIZE_TEXT, fileSizeInMB, EXCEEDS_MAX_SIZE_TEXT);
22.                     AddAttachmentFile?.Invoke(currentSelectedFileInfo,currentSelectedFileAttachmentPath);
23.                 }
24.             });

 

Hi, can you explain what happens and what goes wrong? Are there any helpful logs?

 

@aolgun98 No i dont have this problem

 

Is there a way to convert .heic image from iphone to .jpg and upload it on Firebase?
I tried the following code:

Code (CSharp):

1. byte[] heicBytes = File.ReadAllBytes(heicImagePath);
2.         Texture2D texture = new Texture2D(2, 2);
3.         ImageConversion.LoadImage(texture, heicBytes);
4.  
5.         byte[] jpegBytes = ImageConversion.EncodeToJPG(texture);
6.  
7. uploadRef.PutBytesAsync(jpegBytes, newMetadata).ContinueWithOnMainThread((task) =>
8.         {
9. }

Unfortunately instead of the photo uploaded a small red question mark (?) in firebase.

Any Idea how to solve it?
Has the Native gallery a conversion function?

 

@crackbrain94 Yes you can load the image using NativeGallery.LoadImageAtPath instead of the current solution. Just don't forget to set the markTextureNonReadable parameter to false.

 

@yasirkula Awsome! it works.

What is the second parameter maxsize?
How much must be max size for keep image HD, FHD, 4K, 8K?

 

maxSize determines the maximum width or height of the returned Texture2D in pixels. Larger textures will be down-scaled proportionally.

 

Deat @yasirkula,

I m not sure if I understand right.
How much should be maxSize for the following examples.

HD: (1,280 x 720 pixels)
Full HD: (1,920 x 1,080 pixels)
4K: (3,840 x 2,160 pixels)
8K: (7,680 x 4,320 pixels)

 

1280
1920
3840
7680

Note that scaling is proportionally so 1280x1024 is also valid for maxSize=1280. It's the maximum pixel size of a single dimension, and nothing else. To give different maxSize values for each dimension, you must call GetImageProperties and calculate the maxSize with those values.

 

@yasirkula @Alex-Some @gamedev_co Hey I am seeing the same SIGSEGV crash at a high rate related to NGPermissionCallbackAndroid.OnPermissionResult being called many times even though we never invoked RequestPermission. Any ideas or solutions?
