Question

I want to check a permission inside a fragment.

my code:

        // Here, thisActivity is the current activity
        if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPe         


        

Answer 1

If you closed your permission of app from settings , you can not open your permission from code or your android version lower than Marshmallow.

You can check this documentation https://developer.android.com/training/permissions/requesting.html And this is a example https://www.learn2crack.com/2015/10/android-marshmallow-permissions.html

I have done following to check a permission inside a fragment.

if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(getContext(),
            android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED &&
            ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(getContext(),
                    android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
         requestPermissions(getActivity(),
                new String[]{android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION,
                        android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION},
                REQUEST_LOCATION);
    } else {
        Log.e("DB", "PERMISSION GRANTED");
    }

Using Kotlin, you call requestPermissions(arrayOf(Manifest.permission.THE_PERMISSION_CODE_YOU_WANT), PERMISSION_REQUEST_CODE) and add the following override to your fragment

override fun onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode: Int, permissions: Array<out kotlin.String>, grantResults: IntArray): Unit {

}

What worked for me was calling the onRequestPermissionsResult method in the activity inside which fragment is implemented rather than calling it in fragment itself. Inside onCreateView method in fragment:

    Button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            int permissionCheck = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(getActivity(), Manifest.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE);

            if (permissionCheck != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
                ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(getActivity(), new String[]{Manifest.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE}, MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_READ_MEDIA);
            }else{
                //Do your work
                fetchMethod();
            }

        }
});

In the Activity which helps to implement fragment, outside of onCreate method:

    @Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, String permissions[], int[] grantResults) {
    switch (requestCode) {
        case MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_READ_MEDIA:
            if (grantResults.length > 0 && grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
                fetchMethod();

            }else{
                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Permission not granted!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
            break;

        default:
            break;
    }
}

I was getting tripped up using checkSelfPermission() in a Fragment and wondering what would be the best approach for Context being null (Kotlin specific)... should I use !! or something else?

I went with something else based on code I found in iosched. Have a look at the sample below, and remember, before the Fragment is attached to an Activity, the Context will be null.

private fun fineLocationPermissionApproved(): Boolean {

    val context = context ?: return false

    return PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED == checkSelfPermission(
        context,
        Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION
    )
}

This is how I did, it works for me. Thanks!

For Activity :

ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, permissionsList, REQUEST_CODE);

For Fragment :

requestPermissions(permissionsList, REQUEST_CODE);
