Is there any way to create file from image drawable to send it via MultypartEntity? I having error all the time.

fileUri =  Uri.parse("android.resource://com.wellbread/drawable/placeholder_avatar.png");
mCurrentPhotoPath = fileUri.toString();


 java.io.FileNotFoundException: android.resource:/com.wellbread/drawable/placeholder_avatar.png: open failed: ENOENT (No such file or directory)

  • 1- copy drawable image into sdcard and then create your further steps. – Sandeep Tiwari Aug 25 '15 at 09:18

    Yes, great! It works but actually not creating file, so it would be great if there is any way to create File from byte[] that I don't know – Kirill Zotov Aug 25 '15 at 10:13
  • If you have byte array already, no need to create File object, you can post byte array by using the implementation of addBinaryBody(...) in my answer. The bitmapdata is byte array. – BNK Aug 25 '15 at 10:21

Try the following sample code:

        Drawable drawable = getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.ic_action_home);
        if (drawable != null) {
            Bitmap bitmap = ((BitmapDrawable) drawable).getBitmap();
            ByteArrayOutputStream stream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
            bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, stream);
            final byte[] bitmapdata = stream.toByteArray();
            String url = "http://10.0.2.2/api/fileupload";
            MultipartEntityBuilder builder = MultipartEntityBuilder.create();
            builder.setMode(HttpMultipartMode.BROWSER_COMPATIBLE);

            // Add binary body
            if (bitmapdata != null) {
                ContentType contentType = ContentType.create("image/png");
                String fileName = "ic_action_home.png";
                builder.addBinaryBody("file", bitmapdata, contentType, fileName);
                httpEntity = builder.build();
                ...
            }
        ...
        }

try this:

try
        {
        File f=new File("file name");
       InputStream inputStream = getResources().openRawResource(id); // id drawable
        OutputStream out=new FileOutputStream(f);
        byte buf[]=new byte[1024];
        int len;
        while((len=inputStream.read(buf))>0)
        out.write(buf,0,len);
        out.close();
        inputStream.close();
        }
        catch (IOException e){}
        }

You can open an InputStream from your drawable resource using following code:

     try 
        { 
        File f=new File("your file name");
//id is some like R.drawable.b_image
        InputStream inputStream = getResources().openRawResource(id);
        OutputStream out=new FileOutputStream(f);
        byte buf[]=new byte[1024];
        int len;
        while((len=inputStream.read(buf))>0)
        out.write(buf,0,len);
        out.close();
        inputStream.close();
        } 
        catch (IOException e){}
        }

  • What to use as a file name? – Kirill Zotov Aug 25 '15 at 09:34
  • In your answer i need to put a String path to file, but the question is that my new file all the time says it can't find it. – Kirill Zotov Aug 25 '15 at 10:01
  • file name can be something like this ==> File f = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() .getAbsolutePath() + File.separator + fileName); and file name may be something like temp.png – Ansal Ali Aug 25 '15 at 10:53

You have to get Bitmap from drawable:

public static Bitmap decodeAndSetWidthHeight(Resources res, int resId, int reqWidth, int reqHeight){
        Bitmap btm = BitmapHelper.decodeSampledBitmapFromResource(res, resId, reqWidth, reqHeight);
        return decodeAndSetWidthHeight(btm, reqWidth, reqHeight);
    }

Then you can create file from bitmap

    public static File bitmapToFile(Bitmap bitmap){
        File outFile = FileHelper.getImageFilePNG();
        FileOutputStream out = null;
        try {
            out = new FileOutputStream(outFile);
            bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, out);
        } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } finally {
            try {
                if (out != null) {
                    out.close();
                }
            } catch (IOException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }

        return outFile;
    }

UPDATE (sorry, forget to provide some methods): 

public static File getImageFilePNG() {
    File sdCard = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();
    File dir = new File(sdCard.getAbsolutePath() + "/any name folder");
    dir.mkdirs();

    String fileName = String.format("%d.png", System.currentTimeMillis());
    return new File(dir, fileName);
}


 public static Bitmap decodeSampledBitmapFromResource(Resources res, int resId,
                                                     int reqWidth, int reqHeight) {

    // First decode with inJustDecodeBounds=true to check dimensions
    final BitmapFactory.Options options = new BitmapFactory.Options();
    options.inJustDecodeBounds = true;
    BitmapFactory.decodeResource(res, resId, options);

    // Calculate inSampleSize
    options.inSampleSize = calculateInSampleSize(options, reqWidth, reqHeight);
    Log.d("ANT", "options.inSampleSize : " + options.inSampleSize);

    // Decode bitmap with inSampleSize set
    options.inJustDecodeBounds = false;
    return BitmapFactory.decodeResource(res, resId, options);
}

 public static Bitmap decodeAndSetWidthHeight(Bitmap btm, int reqWidth, int reqHeight){
    Matrix m = new Matrix();
    RectF inRect = new RectF(0, 0, btm.getWidth(), btm.getHeight());
    RectF outRect = new RectF(0, 0, reqWidth, reqHeight);
    m.setRectToRect(inRect, outRect, Matrix.ScaleToFit.FILL);
    float[] values = new float[9];
    m.getValues(values);

    return Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(btm, (int) (btm.getWidth() * values[0]), (int) (btm.getHeight() * values[4]), true);
}
