ReactNative: Native File Selector (Android/iOS)

If this project has helped you out, please support us with a star 🌟

This library is a ReactNative Bridge around native libraries. It allows you to natively select/pick file from device file system:

Android: nbsp-team/MaterialFilePicker/

Note: It allows you to pick file without using Intent/Third Party Software

iOS: marmelroy/FileBrowser

Note: It allows you to select only local files associate to app sandbox.

📖 Getting started

$ npm install react-native-file-selector --save

This library is supports RN60 and above

• iOS

iOS Prerequisite: Please make sure CocoaPods is installed on your system

- Add the following to your `Podfile` -> `ios/Podfile` and run pod update:

  use_native_modules!

  pod 'RNFileSelector', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-file-selector/ios'

  use_frameworks! :linkage => :static

  pod 'FileBrowser', :git => 'https://github.com/prscX/FileBrowser'

  # Follow [Flipper iOS Setup Guidelines](https://fbflipper.com/docs/getting-started/ios-native)
  # This is required because iOSPhotoEditor is implemented using Swift and we have to use use_frameworks! in Podfile
  $static_framework = ['FlipperKit', 'Flipper', 'Flipper-Folly',
    'CocoaAsyncSocket', 'ComponentKit', 'Flipper-DoubleConversion',
    'Flipper-Glog', 'Flipper-PeerTalk', 'Flipper-RSocket', 'Yoga', 'YogaKit',
    'CocoaLibEvent', 'OpenSSL-Universal', 'boost-for-react-native']
  
  pre_install do |installer|
    Pod::Installer::Xcode::TargetValidator.send(:define_method, :verify_no_static_framework_transitive_dependencies) {}
    installer.pod_targets.each do |pod|
        if $static_framework.include?(pod.name)
          def pod.build_type;
            Pod::BuildType.static_library
          end
        end
      end
  end

• Please make sure Flipper iOS Setup Guidelines steps are added to Podfile, since iOSPhotoEditor is implemented using Swift and we have to use use_frameworks! in Podfile

• Android

• Add below color attributes in your app's android/app/src/main/res/values/color.xml file. You can provide your own color codes.

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

        },

💖 Support my projects

I open-source almost everything I can, and I try to reply everyone needing help using these projects. Obviously, this takes time. You can integrate and use these projects in your applications for free! You can even change the source code and redistribute (even resell it).

However, if you get some profit from this or just want to encourage me to continue creating stuff, there are few ways you can do it:

• Starring and sharing the projects you like 🚀

• If you're feeling especially charitable, please follow prscX on GitHub.
