I am developing a VideoPlayer. I convert the URI of a launched intent to a string and it gives me content://media/external...... But I need to get the real path.
For example: /storage/extSdcard.....
How do I do this?
Here is my code if needed:
videoURI = getIntent().getData();
vv.setVideoURI(videoURI);
videoName = videoURI.toString();
tvTitle.setText(videoName);
Use this code .This is working for all android version.This is tested code.This support all devices

Get the real path bypassing URI to getRealPathFromURI function in your activity or fragment:
val fileRealPath = getRealPathFromURI(context!!, fileURI) ?: ""
You can use this code for selected video path.
Uri uri = data.getData();
String[] filePathColumn = {MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA};
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(uri, filePathColumn, null, null, null);
if(cursor.moveToFirst()){
int columnIndex = cursor.getColumnIndex(filePathColumn[0]);
String yourRealPath = cursor.getString(columnIndex);
} else {
//boooo, cursor doesn't have rows ...
}
cursor.close();
you can refer the below link for your help.
Get filename and path from URI from mediastore
Latest with File provider (API 29):
please follow links :
Blogs: https://blogs.datanapps.com/media-picker
Github : https://github.com/datanapps/MediaPicker
I hope you will success.
Here's something I have used before:
public String getRealPathFromURI (Uri contentUri) {
String path = null;
String[] proj = { MediaStore.MediaColumns.DATA };
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(contentUri, proj, null, null, null);
if (cursor.moveToFirst()) {
int column_index = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaStore.MediaColumns.DATA);
path = cursor.getString(column_index);
}
cursor.close();
return path;
}
Most of the answers doesnt work for both gallery and camera images. this works for me.
public static String getPath(final Context context, final Uri uri) {
final boolean isKitKat = Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.KITKAT;
Log.i("URI",uri+"");
String result = uri+"";
// DocumentProvider
// if (isKitKat && DocumentsContract.isDocumentUri(context, uri)) {
if (isKitKat && (result.contains("media.documents"))) {
String[] ary = result.split("/");
int length = ary.length;
String imgary = ary[length-1];
final String[] dat = imgary.split("%3A");
final String docId = dat[1];
final String type = dat[0];
Uri contentUri = null;
if ("image".equals(type)) {
contentUri = MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI;
} else if ("video".equals(type)) {
} else if ("audio".equals(type)) {
}
final String selection = "_id=?";
final String[] selectionArgs = new String[] {
dat[1]
};
return getDataColumn(context, contentUri, selection, selectionArgs);
} else if ("content".equalsIgnoreCase(uri.getScheme())) {
return getDataColumn(context, uri, null, null);
}
// File
else if ("file".equalsIgnoreCase(uri.getScheme())) {
return uri.getPath();
}
return null;
}
public static String getDataColumn(Context context, Uri uri, String selection, String[] selectionArgs) {
Cursor cursor = null;
final String column = "_data";
final String[] projection = {
column
};
try {
cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(uri, projection, selection, selectionArgs, null);
if (cursor != null && cursor.moveToFirst()) {
final int column_index = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(column);
return cursor.getString(column_index);
}
} finally {
if (cursor != null)
cursor.close();
}
return null;
}
Try This:
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == RESULT_LOAD_IMAGE && resultCode == RESULT_OK && null != data) {
Uri selectedImage = data.getData();
String[] filePathColumn = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(selectedImage,filePathColumn, null, null, null);
cursor.moveToFirst();
int columnIndex = cursor.getColumnIndex(filePathColumn[0]);
String picturePath = cursor.getString(columnIndex);
cursor.close();
System.out.println("picturePath +"+ picturePath ); //path of sdcard
}
}
Here is how to get real path of the file from Uri via MediaStore::
private String getRealPathFromURI(Context context, Uri contentUri) {
Cursor cursor = null;
try {
String[] proj = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };
cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(contentUri, proj, null, null, null);
int column_index = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA);
cursor.moveToFirst();
return cursor.getString(column_index);
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e(TAG, "getRealPathFromURI Exception : " + e.toString());
return "";
} finally {
if (cursor != null) {
cursor.close();
}
}
}
here i get uri from on onActivityResult()
Uri selectedImageURI = data.getData();
String realPath = getRealPathFromURI(selectedImageURI);
1) In fragment you can use function like this way..
private String getRealPathFromURI(Uri contentURI) {
String filePath;
Cursor cursor = getActivity().getContentResolver().query(contentURI, null, null, null, null);
if (cursor == null) {
filePath = contentURI.getPath();
} else {
cursor.moveToFirst();
int idx = cursor.getColumnIndex(MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns.DATA);
filePath = cursor.getString(idx);
cursor.close();
}
return filePath;
}
2) And activity you can use function like that.
private String getRealPathFromURI(Uri contentURI) {
String filePath;
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(contentURI, null, null, null, null);
if (cursor == null) {
filePath = contentURI.getPath();
} else {
cursor.moveToFirst();
int idx = cursor.getColumnIndex(MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns.DATA);
filePath = cursor.getString(idx);
cursor.close();
}
return filePath;
}
Call it like
Uri selectedImageURI = data.getData(); //where data is intent return by onActivityResult
imageFile = new File(getRealPathFromURI(selectedImageURI));
and code for gettingPath..
private String getRealPathFromURI(Uri contentURI)
{
String result = null;
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(contentURI, null, null, null, null);
if (cursor == null)
{ // Source is Dropbox or other similar local file path
result = contentURI.getPath();
}
else
{
if(cursor.moveToFirst())
{
int idx = cursor.getColumnIndex(MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns.DATA);
result = cursor.getString(idx);
}
cursor.close();
}
return result;
}
I was trying to solve this problem for 2/3 days, none of the possible solutions I found were helpful. I kept getting null cursors and similar errors.
My reason for needing the file path was to get Exif data so I could display images in the correct orientation. (See A final answer on how to get Exif data from URI)
I found this open source project -
https://github.com/ArthurHub/Android-Image-Cropper/blob/master/cropper/src/main/java/com/theartofdev/edmodo/cropper/BitmapUtils.java
There is a method that gets Exif data from an InputStream, this fixed my problem -
ExifInterface ei = null;
try
{
InputStream is = context.getContentResolver().openInputStream(uri);
if (is != null)
{
ei = new ExifInterface(is);
is.close();
}
}
catch (Exception ignored)
{
}
I know this isn't answering the question directly, but since I found this thread by trying to solve this problem, I think my answer may help others.
For Kotlin folks, This code works for me
fun getPath(context: Context, uri: Uri): String? {
val isKitKatorAbove = Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.KITKAT
// DocumentProvider
if (isKitKatorAbove && DocumentsContract.isDocumentUri(context, uri)) {
// ExternalStorageProvider
if (isExternalStorageDocument(uri)) {
val docId = DocumentsContract.getDocumentId(uri)
val split = docId.split(":".toRegex()).toTypedArray()
val type = split[0]
if ("primary".equals(type, ignoreCase = true)) {
return Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString() + "/" + split[1]
}
} else if (isDownloadsDocument(uri)) {
val id = DocumentsContract.getDocumentId(uri)
val contentUri = ContentUris.withAppendedId(Uri.parse("content://downloads/public_downloads"), java.lang.Long.valueOf(id))
return getDataColumn(context, contentUri, null, null)
} else if (isMediaDocument(uri)) {

val split = docId.split(":".toRegex()).toTypedArray()
val type = split[0]
var contentUri: Uri? = null
if ("image" == type) {

if (cursor != null && cursor.moveToFirst()) {
val column_index: Int = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(column)
return cursor.getString(column_index)

} finally {

return null

You can add these methods in your utils class
you can use this function for get file from uri in new android and older
fun getFileFromUri(context: Context, uri: Uri?): File? {
uri ?: return null
uri.path ?: return null
var newUriString = uri.toString()
newUriString = newUriString.replace(
"content://com.android.providers.downloads.documents/",
"content://com.android.providers.media.documents/"
)
newUriString = newUriString.replace(
"/msf%3A", "/image%3A"
)
val newUri = Uri.parse(newUriString)
var realPath = String()
val databaseUri: Uri
val selection: String?
val selectionArgs: Array<String>?
if (newUri.path?.contains("/document/image:") == true) {
databaseUri = MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI
selection = "_id=?"
selectionArgs = arrayOf(DocumentsContract.getDocumentId(newUri).split(":")[1])
} else {
databaseUri = newUri
selection = null
selectionArgs = null
}
try {
val column = "_data"
val projection = arrayOf(column)
val cursor = context.contentResolver.query(
databaseUri,
projection,
selection,
selectionArgs,
null
)
cursor?.let {
if (it.moveToFirst()) {
val columnIndex = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(column)
realPath = cursor.getString(columnIndex)
}
cursor.close()
}
} catch (e: Exception) {
Log.i("GetFileUri Exception:", e.message ?: "")
}
val path = realPath.ifEmpty {
when {
newUri.path?.contains("/document/raw:") == true -> newUri.path?.replace(
"/document/raw:",
""
)
newUri.path?.contains("/document/primary:") == true -> newUri.path?.replace(
"/document/primary:",
"/storage/emulated/0/"
)
else -> return null
}
}
return if (path.isNullOrEmpty()) null else File(path)
}
I found more elegance solution:
Uri file_uri = Uri.parse(videoURI); // parse to Uri if your videoURI is string
String real_path = file_uri.getPath(); // will return real file path

I'm getting issue for same in Android 10,
as my file URI consist msf: format.
Most solutions said to copy files into cache path & then use that path.
Thus, here is solution to get path, without copying it.
if (isAndroid10 && id.startsWith("msf:")) {
final String[] split = id.split(":");
final String selection = "_id=?";
final String[] selectionArgs = new String[] { split[1] };
return getDataColumn(context, MediaStore.Downloads.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, selection, selectionArgs);
}
Try to implement this.
MediaStore.Downloads.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI -- ONLY PRESENT FROM ANDROID 10
