How to set up a PixelMap from resource in HarmonyOS?

Question

In Android, we can create a Bitmap for a resource image/drawable using BitmapFactory:

Bitmap bm = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.image);

How can we create a corresponding PixelMap from a resource id in HarmonyOS?

Welcome to the Community!

We can obtain PixelMap from a resource with the following method.

import ohos.app.Context;
import ohos.global.resource.NotExistException;
import ohos.global.resource.RawFileEntry;
import ohos.global.resource.Resource;
import ohos.global.resource.ResourceManager;
import ohos.global.resource.WrongTypeException;
import ohos.hiviewdfx.HiLog;
import ohos.hiviewdfx.HiLogLabel;
import ohos.media.image.ImageSource;
import ohos.media.image.PixelMap;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Optional;

/**
 * Resources Utility 
 */
public class ResUtil {
    private static final String LABEL = "ResUtil";
    private static final String MESSAGE = "IOException | NotExistException | WrongTypeException";
    private static final HiLogLabel LABEL_LOG = new HiLogLabel(3, 123401234, "ResUtil");

    private ResUtil() {
    }

    /**
     * get the path from id.
     *
     * @param context the context
     * @param id      the id
     * @return the path from id
     */
    public static String getPathById(Context context, int id) {
        String path = "";
        if (context == null) {
            return path;
        }
        ResourceManager manager = context.getResourceManager();
        if (manager == null) {
            return path;
        }
        try {
            path = manager.getMediaPath(id);
        } catch (IOException | NotExistException | WrongTypeException e) {
            HiLog.error(LABEL_LOG, "%{public}s: %{public}s", new Object[]{"getPathById", MESSAGE});
        }
        return path;
    }

    /**
     * check if the input string is empty.
     *
     * @param input string
     * @return boolean value
     */
    public static boolean isEmpty(String input) {
        return input == null || input.length() == 0;
    }

    /**
     * get the pixel map.
     *
     * @param context the context
     * @param id      resource id
     * @return the pixel map
     */
    public static Optional<PixelMap> getPixelMap(Context context, int id) {
        String path = getPathById(context, id);
        if (context == null || isEmpty(path)) {
            return Optional.empty();
        }
        RawFileEntry assetManager = context.getResourceManager().getRawFileEntry(path);
        ImageSource.SourceOptions options = new ImageSource.SourceOptions();
        options.formatHint = "image/png";
        ImageSource.DecodingOptions decodingOptions = new ImageSource.DecodingOptions();
        try {
            Resource asset = assetManager.openRawFile();
            ImageSource source = ImageSource.create(asset, options);
            return Optional.ofNullable(source.createPixelmap(decodingOptions));
        } catch (IOException e) {
            HiLog.error(LABEL_LOG, "%{public}s: %{public}s", new Object[]{"getPixelMap", "IOException"});
        }
        return Optional.empty();
    }
}

Maybe you can try the following code :

try {

    Resource resource = getResourceManager().getResource(ResourceTable.Media_icon);

    PixelMapElement pixelMapElement = new PixelMapElement(resource);

    PixelMap pixelMap = pixelMapElement.getPixelMap();

} catch (IOException e) {

    e.printStackTrace();

} catch (NotExistException e) {

    e.printStackTrace();

}
