iOS/Android image picker with support for camera, configurable compression, multiple images and cropping
I created this fork to fix few issues I noticed in @ivpusic repo. My PR are still waiting to be merged and I really needed it for my project. I will try to keep this repo up-to-date til my PR are merged.
-
Android cloud storage has been fixed: Before selecting an image in your drive storage will result in returning an empty path. Now, the file is dowloaded and saved in the cache folder. And you'll get all the informations as a local image.
-
Files picker on iOS has been added, it will give you access to your iCloud storage. Just need to call
openFile()
(only on iOS) with same parameters asopenPicker()
.
Import library
import ImagePicker from 'react-native-image-crop-picker';
Call single image picker with cropping
ImagePicker.openPicker({
width: 300,
height: 400,
cropping: true
}).then(image => {
console.log(image);
});
Call multiple image picker
ImagePicker.openPicker({
multiple: true
}).then(images => {
console.log(images);
});
Select video only from gallery
ImagePicker.openPicker({
mediaType: "video",
}).then((video) => {
console.log(video);
});
Android: The prop 'cropping' has been known to cause videos not to be display in the gallery on Android. Please do not set cropping to true when selecting videos.
ImagePicker.openCamera({
width: 300,
height: 400,
cropping: true
}).then(image => {
console.log(image);
});
This is not available on android as the android picker let the user select file from cloud storage.
ImagePicker.openFile({
}).then(image => {
console.log(image);
});
The multiple
property has not been implemented yet -- coming soon
ImagePicker.openCropper({
path: 'my-file-path.jpg',
width: 300,
height: 400
}).then(image => {
console.log(image);
});
Module is creating tmp images which are going to be cleaned up automatically somewhere in the future. If you want to force cleanup, you can use clean
to clean all tmp files, or cleanSingle(path)
to clean single tmp file.
ImagePicker.clean().then(() => {
console.log('removed all tmp images from tmp directory');
}).catch(e => {
alert(e);
});

npm i react-native-image-crop-picker --save
cd ios
pod init
After this edit Podfile. Example content is following:
platform :ios, '8.0'
target '<project_name>' do
# this is very important to have!
rn_path = '../node_modules/react-native'
pod 'yoga', path: "#{rn_path}/ReactCommon/yoga/yoga.podspec"
pod 'React', path: rn_path, subspecs: [
'Core',
'RCTActionSheet',
'RCTAnimation',
'RCTGeolocation',
'RCTImage',
'RCTLinkingIOS',
'RCTNetwork',
'RCTSettings',
'RCTText',
'RCTVibration',
'RCTWebSocket'
]
pod 'RNImageCropPicker', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-image-crop-picker'
end
# very important to have, unless you removed React dependencies for Libraries
# and you rely on Cocoapods to manage it
post_install do |installer|
installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
if target.name == "React"
target.remove_from_project
end
end
end
After this run:
pod install
After this use ios/<project_name>.xcworkspace
. Do not use ios/<project_name>.xcodeproj
.
react-native link react-native-image-crop-picker
react-native link react-native-image-crop-picker
In Xcode open Info.plist and add string key NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription
with value that describes why you need access to user photos. More info here https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/62229. Depending on what features you use, you also may need NSCameraUsageDescription
and NSMicrophoneUsageDescription
keys.
- Drag and drop the ios/ImageCropPickerSDK folder to your xcode project. (Make sure Copy items if needed IS ticked)
- Click on project General tab
- Under
Deployment Info
setDeployment Target
to8.0
- Under
Embedded Binaries
click+
and addRSKImageCropper.framework
andQBImagePicker.framework
- Under
- Add iCloud capability in Xcode.
Key-value storage
andiCloud Documents
must be checked.
- Make sure you are using Gradle
2.2.x
(android/build.gradle)
buildscript {
...
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.3'
...
}
...
}
- VERY IMPORTANT Add the following to your
build.gradle
's repositories section. (android/build.gradle)
allprojects {
repositories {
mavenLocal()
jcenter()
maven { url "$rootDir/../node_modules/react-native/android" }
// jitpack repo is necessary to fetch ucrop dependency
maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
}
}
- Add
useSupportLibrary
(android/app/build.gradle)
android {
...
defaultConfig {
...
vectorDrawables.useSupportLibrary = true
...
}
...
}
- [Optional] If you want to use camera picker in your project, add following to
app\src\main\AndroidManifest.xml
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA"/>
- You are already done
If you are using pre-built frameworks from ios/ImageCropPickerSDK
, then before deploying app to production you should strip off simulator ARCHs from these, or you can add frameworks from Libraries/imageCropPicker/Libraries/_framework_name_.xcodeproj/Products/_framework_name_.framework
to Embedded Binaries instead of pre-built ones.
Related issue: ivpusic#61.
Details for second approach:
- Remove the pre-built frameworks from
Embedded Binaries
- Build for Device
- Add the newly built binaries for both frameworks to
Embedded Binaries
(located atLibraries/imageCropPicker/Libraries/_framework_name_.xcodeproj/Products/_framework_name_.framework
)
- [Android] Standardize multiple select
- [Android] Pick remote media
- [Android] Video compression
