FirebaseStorageAPI

FirebaseStorageAPI is an Android Library wrapper for Firebase Storage functionality. screenshot

Features

  • built-in Progress Dialog
    • customizable messages fit your need and language
  • Upload and download files to Firebase Storage Bucket in different forms like:
    • stream as an IntputStream
    • Array of Bytes
    • File on Device Storage
  • Delete files

Download

1- Setup Firebase Storage

Add Firebase Storage library to your Firebase project https://firebase.google.com/docs/storage/android/start

2-Add Gradle dependency

  • Add the following to your project level build.gradle:
allprojects {
	repositories {
		...
		maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
	}
}
  • Add this to your app build.gradle:
dependencies {
...
	 implementation 'com.github.mshlab:FirebaseStorageAPI:v1.0-release'
}

Usage

1- create a FirebaseStorageAPI object

    FirebaseStorageAPI firebaseStorageAPI = new FirebaseStorageAPI.Builder()  
        .setVisibleAcitivty(this) //required  
        .build();
  • add more custom options
    firebaseStorageAPI = new FirebaseStorageAPI.Builder()  
        .setVisibleAcitivty(this) //required  
		.setCancelMessage("file download canceled") 
		.setDownloadingMessage("downloading from the sky")
		.setErrorMessage("error in gating the file, try later") 
		.setUploadingMessage("carrying it to cloud")
		.setLoadingMessage("waiting to start")
		.allowCancel(true) //let the user choose to cancel the download  
		.build();

2- defined a storage reference (path where you will upload or download your file) learn how

StorageReference mStorageRef = FirebaseStorage.getInstance().
getReference().
getRoot().
child("pics").
child("sky.png");

A- Upload function

1- prepare the data as :

  • inputstream
 InputStream DataToUpload = ...;  
  • File
 Uri DataToUpload = Uri.fromFile(new File("/sdcard/hello.txt"));
  • Bytes
  String string = "helloWorldInBytes";
  byte[] DataToUpload=string.getBytes();

2- pass it to upload method

  firebaseStorageAPI.upload(DataToUpload, mStorageRef, new OnCompleteListener() {  
        @Override  
  public void onComplete(@NonNull Task task) {  
          if (task.isSuccessful()) {  
           mStorageRef.getDownloadUrl().addOnSuccessListener(new OnSuccessListener<Uri>() {  
           
            @Override  
			public void onSuccess(Uri ) {  
       statusTextView.setText("file uploaded successfully\n File URL: " + uri.toString());  
  }}); }} });  

B- Download function

  • InputStream
firebaseStorageAPI.downloadAsStream(mStorageRef, new OnCompleteListener<StreamDownloadTask.TaskSnapshot>() {  
    @Override  
  public void onComplete(@NonNull final Task<StreamDownloadTask.TaskSnapshot> task) {  
       
 if (task.isComplete()) {  
  InputStream is = task.getResult().getStream();  
   //InputStream is ready to use  
		}  
    }  
});
  • File
File localFile = File.createTempFile("images", "jpg");  
firebaseStorageAPI.downloadToLocalPath(mStorageRef, localFile, new OnCompleteListener<FileDownloadTask.TaskSnapshot>() {  
    @Override  
  public void onComplete(@NonNull Task<FileDownloadTask.TaskSnapshot> task) {  
        if (task.isComplete()) {  
        // download is complete, do your thing with the localFile ... 
            } 
         }
      });
  • Bytes
firebaseStorageAPI.downloadAsBytes(mStorageRef, Long.MAX_VALUE, new OnCompleteListener<byte[]>({  
    @Override  
  public void onComplete(@NonNull Task<byte[]> task) {  
 if (task.isComplete()) {
    byte[] dataInBytes = task.getResult();  
	// download complete , do your thing with the dataInBytes
  } 
 }  
});
