Ibrahim M. Ghazal created CB-13481:
--------------------------------------
Summary: file:///android_asset/ shouldn't require
READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission
Key: CB-13481
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-13481
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Bug
Components: cordova-plugin-file
Affects Versions: Master
Environment: cordova-android 6.3.0.
Running on Android 6.0.
Reporter: Ibrahim M. Ghazal
On Android 6+, trying to read a file from {{cordova.file.applicationDirectory}}
({{file:///android_asset/}}) opens the runtime permissions window and asks the
user "Allow AppName to access photos, media, and files on your device?". This
is obviously incorrect as the app always has the permission to read its own
assets.
Sample code that shows the issue:
{code}
function log(a) {console.log(a);};
resolveLocalFileSystemURL(cordova.file.applicationDirectory,
function(applicationDirectory) {
applicationDirectory.getFile('www/index.js', {}, log, log);
}, log);
{code}
