Android How can I call Camera or Gallery Intent Together

Question

If I want to capture image from native camera, I can do:

Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
        intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTR         


        

Answer 1

Create a button in your XML layout and the add the attribute android:onClick="takeAPicture" then in your main activity create a method with the same name from the onClick attribute.

public void takeAPicture(View view){
    Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
        intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, imageUri);
        intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_VIDEO_QUALITY, 1);
        startActivityForResult(intent, IMAGE_CAPTURE);
}

And just do another method for when you want to get the image from the gallery:

public void getImageFromGallery(View view) {
    Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
        intent.setType("image/*");
        intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
        startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent,
                    "Select Picture"), SELECT_PICTURE);
}
