Ian Clelland commented on CB-6249:
----------------------------------
If you really absolutely need a {{file://}} URL, one possible solution is to
copy or move the picture out of its default location, and get a file URL from
there. Something like this may work:
{code}
window.requestFileSystem(PERSISTENT, 0, function(fileSystem) {
window.resolveLocalFileSystemURL(imageURI, function(entry){
entry.moveTo(fileSystem.root.toURL, null, function(newEntry) {
console.log("New location: " + newEntry.toNativeURL());
}, function(e) {
console.error('Error moving picture: '+ e.code);
});
}, function(e) {
console.error('Error resolving URL: '+ e.code);
});
}, function(e) {
console.error('Error requesting file system: '+ e.code);
});
{code}
On the other hand, you may not need a {{file://}} URL. at all; Cordova (and the
webview) should be just as happy working with {{content://}} URLs as
{{file://}} ones. Are you doing anything specific that requires the file scheme?
> Camera fails to return an actual FILE_URI it always returns content://

> Environment: Current Node Version
> v0.10.25
> Current Cordova CLI Version
> 3.4.0-0.1.0

> No matter what I do I can not get a url of file:///... all I get is
> {code}
> content://media/external/images/media/1357
> {code}
> Here is my very simple code....
> {code}
> navigator.camera.getPicture(function(imageURI){
> console.log('GOT IMAGE: '+imageURI);
> window.resolveLocalFileSystemURL(imageURI, function(entry){
> console.log(entry.name + " " +entry.fullPath);
> }, function(e){
> console.log('Some error occured: '+e.code);
> });
> }, onPhotoFail, {
> destinationType: 1,
> sourceType: pictureSource,
> mediaType : Camera.MediaType.ALLMEDIA,
> encodingType: 0,
> allowEdit : false,
> correctOrientation:true,
> saveToPhotoAlbum: false,
> quality: 50
> });
> {code}
> I always get content://... for the returned path from camera and even the
> same thing when I resolve the url. Can you confirm this bug?
