Use the below code to browse the file in any format.
public void browseClick() {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
intent.setType("*/*");
intent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_OPENABLE);
//intent.putExtra("browseCoa", itemToBrowse);
//Intent chooser = Intent.createChooser(intent, "Select a File to Upload");
try {
//startActivityForResult(chooser, FILE_SELECT_CODE);
startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent, "Select a File to Upload"),FILE_SELECT_CODE);
} catch (Exception ex) {
System.out.println("browseClick :"+ex);//android.content.ActivityNotFoundException ex
}
}
Then get that file path in the onActivityResult like below.
@Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == FILE_SELECT_CODE) {
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
try {
Uri uri = data.getData();
if (filesize >= FILE_SIZE_LIMIT) {
Toast.makeText(this,"The selected file is too large. Selet a new file with size less than 2mb",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} else {
String mimeType = getContentResolver().getType(uri);
if (mimeType == null) {
String path = getPath(this, uri);
if (path == null) {
filename = FilenameUtils.getName(uri.toString());
} else {
File file = new File(path);
filename = file.getName();
}
} else {
Uri returnUri = data.getData();
Cursor returnCursor = getContentResolver().query(returnUri, null, null, null, null);
int nameIndex = returnCursor.getColumnIndex(OpenableColumns.DISPLAY_NAME);
int sizeIndex = returnCursor.getColumnIndex(OpenableColumns.SIZE);
returnCursor.moveToFirst();
filename = returnCursor.getString(nameIndex);
String size = Long.toString(returnCursor.getLong(sizeIndex));
}
File fileSave = getExternalFilesDir(null);
String sourcePath = getExternalFilesDir(null).toString();
try {
copyFileStream(new File(sourcePath + "/" + filename), uri,this);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
}
private void copyFileStream(File dest, Uri uri, Context context)
throws IOException {
InputStream is = null;
OutputStream os = null;
try {
is = context.getContentResolver().openInputStream(uri);
os = new FileOutputStream(dest);
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
int length;
while ((length = is.read(buffer)) > 0) {
os.write(buffer, 0, length);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
is.close();
os.close();
}
}
After this you can open this file from your application external storage where you saved the file with appropriate action.
