What is Android ImageChooser?

I'm pretty sure that name is self-descriptive - the idea is to have simple library which will manage choosing images from different sources (Gallery, Camera), maybe save it to some location (internal memory or SD-Card) and return the Bitmap image back.

Permissions

Put these permission inside your AndroidManifest

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

Inside your Activity

// CHOOSER_IMAGE_REQUEST_CODE is some number
ImageChooser chooser = new AlertDialogImageChooser(this, CHOOSER_IMAGE_REQUEST_CODE);

// Optional
chooser.saveImageTo(StorageOption.SD_CARD_APP_ROOT, "myDirectory", "myFabulousImage");

// Show it (open AlertDialog) on button click
button.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
	@Override
	public void onClick(View arg0) {
		chooser.show();
	}
});

Last step is to override onActivityResult and call chooser method which has the same name

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
	if (requestCode == CHOOSER_IMAGE_REQUEST_CODE && resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
		chooser.onActivityResult(data, new ImageChooserListener() {
			
			@Override
			public void onResult(Bitmap image, File savedImage) {
				// Do something with original image...

				// savedImage is null if you didn't invoke any
				// saveImageTo method
			}
			
			@Override
			public void onError(String message) {
				// Something bad happened :(
			}
		});
	}
}

SD-Card

SD-Card is necessary to capture image from camera, otherwise exception will be thrown.
