Media plugin

I made my own file explorer, and seems like LFS dont like utf8
Keep that in mind.


Also, I did some test in Android player and the only 2 folders that I am allowed to see is "/mnt/" and "/mnt/user". In every other case Im gettin "permission denied" error. Is that because of the player or not?

I fixed that yesterday already

It is not documented btw in the wiki.

Yes, it is kind of a "private use" function I added to Gideros for a specific project of mine. It is implemented only for Android

also added application permissions to the wiki:
https://wiki.giderosmobile.com/index.php/Application

it's quick and dirty, I'll do it later I guess, I need to check github to see all permissions available.DONE https://wiki.gideros.rocks/index.php/Application:checkPermission + https://wiki.gideros.rocks/index.php/Application:requestPermissions

Try this:

-- Request permission if not application:checkPermission("android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE") then application:requestPermission({"android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"}) end

i got the error:
"attempt to call method 'requestPermission' (a nil value)"

EDIT:

-- Request permission if not application:checkPermission("android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE") then application:requestPermissions({"android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"}) end

works! (note the plural in "requestPermissions")

I have been playing around with the gmedia plugin for android. I have modified 2 functions: getPicture() and savePicture().
Now those functions can deal with any files
For example for an image:

local source = Pixel.new(0xffff00, 0.75, 128, 128) local rt = RenderTarget.new(source:getWidth(), source:getHeight()) rt:draw(source) local myfilepath = "|D|mysavedpicture2.png" rt:save(myfilepath) local media = Media.new(myfilepath) mediamanager:postPicture(myfilepath)

And for a text file:

local myfilepath2 = "files/text_file01.txt" local media = Media.new(myfilepath2) mediamanager:postPicture(myfilepath2) -- = save picture (now save file really)

+ now you can name the file too
+ I migrated to androidx as (at)hgy29

(minor issue would be to rename those functions)
