Usage

After importing the library you can use FileListerDialog to list the files and pick one among them. Simply follow the steps

1. Create an instance of FileListerDialog by using the static method createFileListerDialog()

   Default Instance:

      FileListerDialog fileListerDialog = FileListerDialog.createFileListerDialog(context);
   

   Instance with a theme for Dialog:

      FileListerDialog fileListerDialog = FileListerDialog.createFileListerDialog(context, themeId);
   

2. Set OnFileSelectedListener so that you get what file/ directory has been selected

      filelister.setOnFileSelectedListener(new OnFileSelectedListener() {
            @Override
            public void onFileSelected(File file, String path) {
                  //your code here
            }
      });
   

3. Set the default directory to load when showing the dialog:

   Using a file

      fileListerDialog.setDefaultDir(file);
   

   Using a file path

      fileListerDialog.setDefaultDir(path);
   

4. Set the File Filter type to filter the type of files to be listed:

      fileListerDialog.setFileFilter(FileListerDialog.FILE_FILTER.ALL_FILES);
   

   Possible values are:

      FileListerDialog.FILE_FILTER.ALL_FILES
      FileListerDialog.FILE_FILTER.DIRECTORY_ONLY
      FileListerDialog.FILE_FILTER.IMAGE_ONLY
      FileListerDialog.FILE_FILTER.VIDEO_ONLY
      FileListerDialog.FILE_FILTER.AUDIO_ONLY
      FileListerDialog.FILE_FILTER.ALL_MEDIA
      FileListerDialog.FILE_FILTER.DOCUMENT_ONLY
      FileListerDialog.FILE_FILTER.SPREADSHEET_ONLY
      FileListerDialog.FILE_FILTER.PRESENTATION_ONLY
      FileListerDialog.FILE_FILTER.ALL_DOCUMENTS
      FileListerDialog.FILE_FILTER.COMPRESSED_ONLY
      FileListerDialog.FILE_FILTER.APK_ONLY
      FileListerDialog.FILE_FILTER.CUSTOM_EXTENSION
   

5. Finally call show() to open the dialog.

      fileListerDialog.show();
