Implemented deep linking in my app, but can't quite understand how Uri.getPath() method works... It looks like it cuts the path to 2 segments but why?
Why is that? I can't see any other method that would return me the whole path.
Here is the explanation: (from wikipedia)
hierarchical part
┌───────────────────┴─────────────────────┐
authority path
┌───────────────┴───────────────┐┌───┴────┐
abc://username:password#example.com:123/path/data?key=value#fragid1
└┬┘ └───────┬───────┘ └────┬────┘ └┬┘ └───┬───┘ └──┬──┘
scheme user information host port query fragment
according to this
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/Uri.html#getPath()
it is decode your path. Read full doc for better understanding about Uri

I want to ask does android URI path segments support question marks? I have a url in the format
www.blah.com/test?foo=123
the matcher is something like
<data android:pathPattern="/test.*"/>
The URI returned is www.blah.com/test?foo=123 but when I call uri.lastPathSegments it only returns test and cuts off ?foo=123
No, the ?foo=123 is not part of the URI path. It is called the query.
You should use uri.query or uri.getQueryParameter("foo") instead.
No, Deeplink uri not support question marks.

Alright, here goes. I'm dealing with an ionic project. In this specific scenario we're dealing with testing the Android version of the app. I can get images from the file system just fine, they come back in the form of a string url that looks something like this,
content://com.android.providers.media.documents/document/image%3A5744
The processor that is then supposed to blob the file and pass it up the line looks like this:
return this.file.readAsArrayBuffer(urlData.url, urlData.fileName)
.then((item) => {
return new Blob([new Uint8Array(item)]);
})
.catch((err) => {
console.log(err.message)
}).then((res)=>{
return new Blob([res])
})
But then I get the error SECURITY_ERR, which the documentation doesn't really talk about.
This works just fine for the pictures I take with the camera, which all have urls that look like this
file:///storage/emulated/0/Android/data/<appname>/cache/1502211622334.jpg
The issue is, as far as i can find, there is no documentation on what causes this error. I have no idea what to change to make my code work. I have verified the URI is valid, using the checkFile method.
So it turns out you can't use content urls with file.readAsArrayBuffer instead you have to first resolve the url into something readAsArrayBuffer can understand. To do this, i used the ionic native filePath plugin.
Once it was installed and included in the page where I needed it, I used the
filePath.resolveNativePath(url)
method on my url, since this returns a promise, I chained my readAsArrayBuffer onto a then statement prepended to it. I did have to use an if statement to have branching paths for content urls (Which required resolveNativePath) and non-content urls which were already working.
This solution works as far as I can tell.
I am using XE7 Rad Studio to build "apps" for Android and IPhone. Focusing on Android for the moment.
According to the requirements, I need to load the HTML inside the application as a resource string.
WebBrowser1.LoadFromStrings(ResourceStrings.HTMLString,'');
//Loads the resource-string successfully.
However in this resource-string I need to load images, and I cant figure out how to do it. I can see in deployment that I have the images loaded into the project {Bitmap_1, Bitmap_2,Bitmap_3}.
How do I complete this line:
resource-string:
...'<img id="img2" class="thumbnail" src="/images/im2.bmp" alt="/images/im2.bmp"/>'...
Many thanks.
If you read the documentation for LoadFromStrings(), it says:
Displays HTML string content within the TWebBrowser component.
This method uses the following parameters:
Content: specifies the HTML string to be displayed.
BaseUrl: specifies a path that is used to resolve relative URLs within the loaded page. To clarify, consider the following scenario: this parameter is set to www.mycompany.com/departments/, and the loaded page defines a link <a href=’Sales.html’>Sales dept</a>. In the given case, clicking this link opens http:// www.mycompany.com/departments/Sales.html.
That is the exact scenario you are running into. Your HTML contains relative links to external images, but you are not providing a BaseURL, so the WebBrowser cannot resolve the correct URLs it needs to load those images.
In the Deployment Manager, set the Remote Path of your image files to either StartUp/Documents/images/ or StartUp/Library/Application Support/images/.
At app startup, Delphi will copy files beginning with StartUp to the appropriate folder on the device. Then you can do the following when calling LoadFromStrings():
// note sure which function to use for 'StartUp/Library/Application Support/',
// maybe TPath.GetLibraryPath()? This example is for '/StartUp/Documents/'...
WebBrowser1.LoadFromStrings(ResourceStrings.HTMLString, 'file://' + TPath.GetDocumentsPath);
That will allow "/images/im2.bmp" to resolve to something like file:///data/data/<application ID>/files/images/im2.bmp", etc.
Hi I have implemented an android web server and I am serving html pages on the fly, based on the uri requested.
When I try to include images from my sdcard they are not showing up on the html page. I have the requisite permissions in the manifest. I have tried looking around but, most of the examples involve images within webview. I am using the following code to get path to the .png files on the sdcard.
String file_icon=Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath()+"/file_icon.png";
String folder_icon=Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath()+"/folder_icon.png";
and I am writing to the outputstream using the following
writer.write("<tr><td><input type=\"checkbox\" name=\""+files.toString()+"\" value=\"file\"/></td><td><img src=\""+file_icon+"\"/>"+files.toString()+"</tr>");
writer.write("<tr><td><input type=\"checkbox\" name=\""+files.toString()+"\" value=\"file\"/></td><td><img src=\""+folder_icon+"\"/>"+files.toString()+"</tr>");
When I fire up the emulator and visit the page I see no images.

Any ideas or pointers in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.Thanks.
After looking around I found out that I needed to implement a ContentProvider and override the openFile() method.

I have a WebView that I'm using to open some files stored in the assets/ directory of my project. It works fine for most of the files, but there's one in particular (and I'm sure others I haven't found) that it just will not open.
The file I'm having problems with is named:
"assets/ContentRoot/Photos/XXX Software Logo - jpg - 75%.JPG"
When I pass it to WebView, and it shows the error page, it shows it as:
"file:///android_asset/ContentRoot/Photos/XXX%20Software%20Logo%20-%20jpg%20-%2075%.JPG"
I then tried running URLEncoder.encode() on it and got the error page with the URL presented as:
"file:///android_asset/ContentRoot/Photos/XXX+Software+Logo+-+jpg+-+75%.JPG"
Neither of these URLs were able to open the file (and they both look okay to me). Anyone have any ideas?
UPDATE: If I encode the % by hand (using %25, as commonsware.com suggested) then it loads the image, but it tries to parse it as text, not as an image, so I just get a lot of (basically) garbage.
Also, referring to the image in an HTML document with a relative URL isn't working (probably because it's not being parsed as an image?):
<img src="../Photos/XXX%20Software%20Logo%20-%20jpg%20-%2075%.JPG" />
<img src="../Photos/XXX%20Software%20Logo%20-%20jpg%20-%2075%25.JPG" />
Okay, after spending way too long on this, I've figured out what's going on. Basically, if images stored in the assets/ directory contain a space (e.g., " ") in their file name, they won't render as images.
myWebView.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/testimage.jpg");
works fine. However,
myWebView.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/test+image.jpg");
just throws a not found error and
myWebView.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/test image.jpg");
// and
myWebView.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/test%20image.jpg");
show it improperly displayed (as text... see screenshot in question).
This unexpected behaviour is present on (at least) 1.5, 1.6, and 2.0 and I filed a bug report.
Try getting rid of the % in the filename. Or, escape it as %25.
I would guess that WebView only understands text related content types so it faithfully treating your JPG as base64 encoding, decodes and displays resulted gobble-goop as text. I don't really know if it's possible to set content type for WebView but as workaround you can try to throw img tag inside html tag and load resultet page. Also you probably can only use WebView#loadDataWithBaseUrl
