After adding this plugin I got the following error
error: unexpected element found in .

I have been trying to configure the plugin with public.content in the IOS_UNIFORM_TYPE_IDENTIFIER variable, but it doesn't work. But public.image works. Why???

I have a Ionic app with this plugin that I am testing on an Android emulator. The plugin is initialized successfully but the handle function is never called. I added some logs and it seems that both intent.getClipData and intent.getExtras return null, which means that the toJSONObject returns null therefore intent is never processed.

I am testing this on an Android emulator 7.1.1 and I am opening a simple image from my Downloads folder. Here are some logs (I added the intent.toString()), let me know what else can I do to help with the troubleshooting:

D openwith: [native] onNewIntent() android.intent.action.VIEW
D openwith: [native] Intent { act=android.intent.action.VIEW dat=content://com.android.providers.downloads.documents/document/28 typ=image/jpeg flg=0x13000003 cmp=io.ionic.starter/.MainActivity }
D openwith: [native] processPendingIntents()

Hi j3k0, Your plugin is awesome. it is working perfect until the point it reads the data of a image jpeg file. I rendered it to image src with prefixing standard jpeg file text. It is perfectly displaying in the page. now the problem starts from here, When I try to read the same image src back into javascript, it is quitting. Do I have to do something extra? thnq

If I share an image from the Camera app the social share dialog appears, but the the app does not open after clicking "Post".

Shares from the gallery app work perfectly and the app is opened after clicking "Post".

Does this happen to other users of this plugin, too?

I was trying on Android 7 and 8, noting works.
Made some changes to the code following the Android SDK documentation, now I can share both text and images.
Changes can be seen here:
[edit - I ended up cloning a different flavor of this plugin, however the question and changes are similar]

I am using this plugin for sharing images with my app. It's working fine with Android devices.
But in IOS devices it shows me error first, for ShareViewController.h' file not found during ios build
then i added path in plugin.xml for ShareViewController.h' file then it resolved issue

now it's initialized but Icon not displayed in SentTo list

can you please help me to resolve this issue ?

I can't understand why most of the time, the items array is empty when I share content.
Don't know how to investiguate

Object
action: "SEND"
exit: false
items: Array(1)
0: null
length: 1__proto__: Array(0)proto: Object

I am trying to implement custom UTI by following this guide:

https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/qa/qa1587/_index.html

The Application icon is shown for the specified file type but it doesn't do anything when i tap the icon in the share menu

Hi, First i want to thank you for the plugin. On ios, when I share an Image to my app, and the app is not running, it will not start the app. The intent is then received when I start the app manually. If the app IS already running and I share, the app does not come to the foreground and the intent is received when I switch to the app.

Any idea what is wrong?

Hi!

Plugin works great in Android, thanks a lot 👍

I do struggle with IOS though, when in XCode (9.2) configuring the App Group.

I get the exact same message as shown in the screenshot here:

• Add App Group to your App ID (Operation requires bundle identifier)
  https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48326175/add-app-group-to-your-app-id-operation-requires-bundle-identifier

I have configured the App Group in IOS Developer pages, adding it to the App ID, and updating the provisioning profile. And doing the same for the "ShareExt" target.

Anyone else run into this situation?!

Cheers

Hello I get this Error while installing the Plugin:

What did i do wrong?

when i want to upload a photo in ios from share as i can see i don't have the photo file path. The only think i have that look like path is extension://index=0 but it does not work while i am trying to upload photo.

The goal of my app is to be able to open Safari (on iOS) -> navigate to a web page -> click on the Share icon -> have my app show up in the list of apps to share to -> accept and handle the data

I've tried many different Uniform Type Identifiers, and none of them cause my app to show up in the list of apps to share to, even after clicking "More." However, public.image works just fine for sharing images from the Photos app on my (simulated) device, but nada when it comes to safari, even raw images loaded in safari.

So far I've tried:

• public.text
• public.url
• public.document (that works for the Photos app)
• public.item

But nothing is causing it to show up. Any help would be appreciated.

After installing the plugin, everything works perfect with sharing data in ios while running the app in my phone (choose a photo for share, and then open a specific view on my app for upload form). But when i uploaded the app using testFlight the when i am using sharing to upload photos on my app, it opens the app bun doesn't have the same behaviour as running from xcode.

any idea what is going wrong?

subj https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30518321/on-android-m-how-to-configure-the-direct-share-capabilities-image-text-an

any plans to support it?

While I use the plugin with [wildcard]/[wildcard] as mimetype it will shown up in all share menus in android. By the time I‌ share location from google map there is an empty object in intent. I‌ tried with "action.SEND" and "action.VIEW", also multiple mimetypes, but no difference in result.
Is it possible to handle geolocation with this plugin?

Has anyone able to share a contact and/or a missed call successfully?

I tried using public.vcard and public.contact from Apple's system UTI references.

https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/Miscellaneous/Reference/UTIRef/Articles/System-DeclaredUniformTypeIdentifiers.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40009259-SW1

The extension works perfectly for public.image so I'm assuming there is something different with contacts.

Any ideas?

Hi, I tried to use other public.item UTI with this plugin but it doesn't seem to work. Is it my exclusive problem or what?

I really need to open xml and json files but it doesn't accept any file other than images, I tried with public.item, public.data and public.content but nothing. I tried to dive into the plugin but (and I'm a completely agnostic in this ) it seems that images are the default UTI..

Is it possibile to change the plugin in order to let it accept every UTI?

Hi there,

• system: macOS 10.13.5
• cordova: v8.0.0
• android-studio: v3.0.1

Fresh cordova app, installed with only cordova-plugin-openwith by the command line:
cordova plugin add cc.fovea.cordova.openwith --variable ANDROID_MIME_TYPE="*/*"
When cordova run android, the following error is thrown:

After poking around, I removed the following lines from platfoms/android/android.json:

       {
         "xml": "<uses-permission android:name=\"android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE\" />",
         "count": 1
       },`

and moved the line in the file 'platforms/android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml'

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>

from within the <application> to directly above the <application> tag, so now the file becomes:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<manifest android:hardwareAccelerated="true" android:versionCode="10000" android:versionName="1.0.0" package="io.cordova.hellocordova" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"\>
<supports-screens android:anyDensity="true" android:largeScreens="true" android:normalScreens="true" android:resizeable="true" android:smallScreens="true" android:xlargeScreens="true" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<application android:hardwareAccelerated="true" android:icon="@mipmap/icon" android:label="@string/app_name" android:supportsRtl="true">
<activity android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden|keyboard|screenSize|locale" android:label="@string/activity_name" android:launchMode="singleTask" android:name="MainActivity" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.DeviceDefault.NoActionBar" android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize">
<intent-filter android:label="@string/launcher_name">

<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
<intent-filter>
<data android:mimeType="/" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="16" android:targetSdkVersion="26" />
</manifest>

Then, cordova run android succeeded again, and I can see the cordova app in the 'share to' panel.

Now I'm totally new to android and cordova, please correct me if this is a false issue.
Thanks.

It would save a lot of trial and error if this plug-in would have typescript definitions shipped with it.

When I try to build ios: ionic cordova build ios

I get this error

Any ideas how to fix it?

I have added this plugin to my project.
When I share video link from android youtube application, it opens my app but items are null.

Hi,

Have you guys managed to make this work for images in iOS 12 (text and url's are working at least inside the simulator)? It does work for me on lower iOS versions.

Thanks :)

I'm not sure I fully understand why, but it seems that adding this plug-in causes my CI to fail.
Any idea why would this happen?
The error I'm getting is:
npm : Failed to fetch platform cordova-android@^7.1.4
Error can be seen here:
https://ci.appveyor.com/project/IsraelHikingHost/site/builds/21815028/job/nc9be11w88vn61fj
After the next check-in I did to remove this plugin the CI started working again.
Your help would be super appreciated as I have no clue why would this happen...
I also tried asking here:
apache/cordova-cli#357

I've followed the installation instructions, installed the plugin, setup App Groups, enabled the entitlements, added them to my provisioning profiles, built my app. I've added a handler to my app and see the output in the Xcode console when initialised like this:

[OpenWithPlugin.m][onReset]
[OpenWithPlugin.m][setVerbosity] 0
openwith: init()
[OpenWithPlugin.m][setLogger] OpenWithPlugin252748709
[OpenWithPlugin.m][setHandler] OpenWithPlugin252748710
[OpenWithPlugin.m][init]
[OpenWithPlugin.m][checkForFileToShare]
[OpenWithPlugin.m][checkForFileToShare] Nothing to share
openwith: addHandler()
openwith: initSuccess()
openwith init success!

When opening the Photos app and selecting a photo to share, I see my app in the share with menu. Tapping it opens my app but the console just says:

[OpenWithPlugin.m][onResume]
[OpenWithPlugin.m][checkForFileToShare]
[OpenWithPlugin.m][checkForFileToShare] Nothing to share
PBItemCollectionServicer connection disconnected.

My handler has the console.log output from the demo project so should display the details of any intent received but seems it's not fired at all. I have exhausted all of the help/documentation provided... any ideas what I can do to debug this?

Hi, I have implemented this plugin for iOS.
When using it on emulator with data of message and image, the console shows below message.

[OpenWithPlugin.m][checkForFileToShare] Data content is invalid

In my understanding, sending dict.text is removed from ShareViewController at v.1.2.0.
But, receiving dict.text is checked for type of string on OpenWithPlugin.
Is it better to be sending dict.text ?

Please let me know a solution.
Thanks

What I notice is that on android the base64 data length is larger than one with IOS for the same file. Also for android data base64decode fails while it looks fine on IOS. Is there any difference on the base64 generation logic between the two or am I missing something?

maybe i missed something like 8

repeat the previous five steps for the ShareExtension target.
You might also have to select a Team for both the App and Share Extension targets, make sure to select the same.

Build, XCode might complain about a few things to setup that it will fix for you (creation entitlements files, etc).

Hey,

I got everything up and running so far with images. If I want to share an image, my app pops up in the open with dialog. The problem is that I need to open csv files with my app, not images, so I changed the file types accordingly to the following:

        "ANDROID_MIME_TYPE": "text/csv"
        "IOS_UNIFORM_TYPE_IDENTIFIER": "public.comma-separated-values-text"

But on both, ios and android, the app will not be displayed in the dialog when I try to open a csv file. However it still remains visible in the open image dialog.
I tried removing the plugin and adding it again, removing the plugin and the platforms, readding both but nothing seems to be working. Has anyone accomplished to open a file other than an image?

I see different behavior on iOS 11 vs 12.

On iOS 11 - I get the filepath of files shared in completion handler.
On iOS 12 - I get a URL domain error. But if i handle it based on the type (eg: image), i get the file content.

Is this behaviour only on simulator or on device as well ?

Hi!
I am using this plugin with Ionic v1 app. Now I am in process of upgrading app to Ionic 3. Will the plugin work there?
I found the Ionic Native Web Intent plugin, but it only supports Android...

I have the following use case which I need to solve:
I would like to open a gpx file. seems easy, but the following is what needs to be added to the manifest:

  <intent-filter>
	<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"/>
	<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>
	<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE"/>
	<data android:mimeType="text/xml"/>
	<data android:mimeType="text/plain"/>
	<data android:mimeType="application/gpx"/>
	<data android:mimeType="application/gpx+xml"/>
	<data android:mimeType="application/octet-stream"/>
	<data android:mimeType="application/xml"/>
	<data android:host="*" android:scheme="http"/>
	<data android:host="*" android:scheme="https"/>
	<data android:host="*" android:scheme="content"/>
  </intent-filter>
  <intent-filter>
	<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"/>
	<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>
	<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE"/>
	<data android:mimeType="*/*"/>
	<data android:host="*" android:pathPattern=".*\.gpx" android:scheme="file"/>
	<data android:host="*" android:pathPattern=".*\..*\.gpx" android:scheme="file"/>
	<data android:host="*" android:pathPattern=".*\..*\..*\.gpx" android:scheme="file"/>
	<data android:host="*" android:pathPattern=".*\..*\..*\..*\.gpx" android:scheme="file"/>
  </intent-filter>

How can I achieve this using this plugin?

While attempting to build with this plugin:

.meteor/local/cordova-build/platforms/android/build/intermediates/manifests/full/debug/AndroidManifest.xml:113:
AAPT: error: unknown element found.

Hi,

after installing the Plugin, i got no additional Target in XCode (for the ShareExtension).
The Hooks seem to run, but the Target is not added into the projec.pbxproj File.

Adding target "cc.fovea.cordova.openwith/ShareExtension" to XCode project
  - Folder containing your iOS project: /Users/jensfischer/angularProjects/xxxx/platforms/ios/
    Parsing existing project at location: /Users/jensfischer/angularProjects/xxxx/platforms/ios/xxxxx.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj...
    ShareExtension group already exists.
Added ShareExtension to XCode project

(Replaced the projects's name with xxxx for this issue)

Any ideas what could cause this?

I had used this plugin with IOS.

It will made my app visible when we share a image from gallery, but after that it will just open the my app home screen and do nothing.

Please reply. Its very Urgent!!!!

I've tried the plugin in my app with custom UTI but it didn't work, then i tried the basic example with image and that didn't work too, i get this info:

Even though I share the image from Photos the log says nothing to share

Build a standard blank Ionic project, add the ios platform, Add the push plugin, build => Builds OK

Add the OpenWith plugin, and build will fail.

NOTE: This is quite possibly a duplicate of phonegap/phonegap-plugin-push#2274, but when built with a different ordering, the failure symptoms are different (can't find Plist, vs linker failure in other case, but underlying cause may be the same). If you add the plugins in the other order, you will get an error more like Issue 2274 on Push plugin.

Prerequisites for the installation are that one has installed cocopods per the Push instructions (see https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugin-push), and that one has set up Developer certs, App Group and App ID in concert (per the directions for this plugin). Then:

ionic start intentTest8 blank --type ionic1
cd intentTest8
   (make sure config.xml has right app id for the App Group)
ionic cordova platform add ios
ionic cordova plugin add phonegap-plugin-push
   (ensure developer signing set correctly)
ionic cordova build ios

=> Works.

Then

cordova plugin add cc.fovea.cordova.openwith --variable ANDROID_MIME_TYPE="text/*"  --variable IOS_URL_SCHEME=ccfoveaopenwithdemo  --variable IOS_UNIFORM_TYPE_IDENTIFIER=public.text
ionic cordova build ios

=> Fails, with errors:

Marks-Air-2:intentTest8 markwatkins$ ionic cordova build ios
> cordova build ios
(node:67347) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Unhandled promise rejection (rejection id: 1): CordovaError: Could not find *-Info.plist file, or config.xml file.

Not sure if something needs to be done to allow the ShareExt target to co-exist with Cocoapods?

Hello,

Would it be possible to share webpage url's? At the moment I get:

uri: "content://com.android.chrome.FileProvider/BlockedFile_17148492684749"

While I expected a webpage url.

I have implemented this plugin. It is working fine for android.
But in the case of IOS. It is working fine when I am installing the app using Xcode locally, But when I am uploading it to Test Flight and installing from there. My app is in the list for share but handler function is not called.

Another Question :
How to use this plugin for sharing the different type of files on IOS.
As it is working for images only for me.

After adding the plugin, i got
"could not find -Info.plist file, or config.xml file.” when i tried to build the project.

Hey,

First Of All, Thanks for the great plugin.

I want a functionality like, WhatsApp. I mean I want to share image with particular people on my App. Is there any way I can open my custom page after I choose images and click on our app from Share? I can list out friends there and provide select option.

Thanks :)

Hi,
I'm trying to install the plugin on a iOS/android project but I got this error installing on iOS (android works).

I see this plugin working in some cases (ie. google apps), but not for SoundCloud's share. I'm certain that it shares data correctly.

Great plugin! Thank you so much for putting it together!

Question: I have an app that I would like to receive shares of text from other apps, but can't accept image sharing. Is that possible? When I try what looks like the obvious, it doesn't seem to work...e.g.:

If I install the plugin via:

cordova plugin add cc.fovea.cordova.openwith --variable ANDROID_MIME_TYPE="image/*" --variable IOS_URL_SCHEME=ccfoveaopenwithdemo --variable IOS_UNIFORM_TYPE_IDENTIFIER=public.image

it works as expected - the photos app can share images to my app. But text selected in an app cannot.

However, if I install via:

cordova plugin add cc.fovea.cordova.openwith --variable ANDROID_MIME_TYPE="text/*" --variable IOS_URL_SCHEME=ccfoveaopenwithdemo --variable IOS_UNIFORM_TYPE_IDENTIFIER=public.text

Then neither sharing an image nor text to my app seems possible (my app doesn't show in the share menu).

Is it possible to only share text? I have not yet tried the "extra actions" approach but would prefer not to have my app show on the image sharing menu since I can't accept it...

Thanks!

The plugin worked in ionic - android without any problem.
In ionic - ios, it worked but the receiver app (my app) could not get the data.
What could we do.

I am trying to read an image from photos app on simulator.

// SHAREEXT_UNIFORM_TYPE_IDENTIFIER @"public.data".

This issue is with the extension target created by cordova. When I manually create extension target from xcode and have the same code, it works !!.

Is there anything missing here in the way the cordova adds extension target ? (entitlements etc.. ?)

Hello, I get this error under IONIC v3, Platform iOS.

The handler get this intent item:
{"name":"","uti":"public.jpeg","utis":["public.jpeg"],"uri":"file:///private/var/mobile/Containers/Shared/AppGroup/9A08219E-0506-4667-8D2E-287DB167B89B/Library/Caches/82DF64B5-4476-422B-AE54-DD6C3CBC5CE0..com.apple.Foundation.NSItemProvider.ZiNZID.jpeg","type":"image/jpeg"}

but I get an error at this line:
`
(window).plugins.openwith.load(intent.items[0], function (data, item) {
// data is a long base64 string with the content of the file
console.log("the item weights " + data.length + " bytes");
alert("uploadToServer(item)");

        // "exit" when done.
        // Note that there is no need to wait for the upload to finish,
        // the app can continue while in background.
        if (intent.exit) {
          (<any>window).plugins.openwith.exit();
        }
      });

`
thanks

It is working fine with the local build but handler function is not getting called in test flight build. It seems because app groups are not working in the deployed build.
