I've been looking for a solution for some time to send an email with a TXT file located in location( In java ) (storage / emulated / 0 / testDir / testFileName.txt ) I found this but it is not working for me ( Android, .txt email attachment not sending via intent ) Thanks for the help!
UPDATE my code:
email = findViewById(R.id.email);
email.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
try {
String fileName = "testFileName.txt";
File root = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(), "testDir");
if (!root.exists()) {
root.mkdirs();
}
File gpxfile = new File(root, fileName);
FileWriter writer = new FileWriter(gpxfile);
writer.append("Testing email txt attachment.");
writer.flush();
writer.close();
sendEmail(gpxfile);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
});protected void sendEmail(File file){
Uri path = Uri.fromFile(file); // This guy gets the job done!
Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
i.setType("message/rfc822");
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Test subject");
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "This is the body of the email");
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, path); // Include the path
try {
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(i, "Send mail..."));
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException ex) {
Toast.makeText(this, "There are no email clients installed.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}This is the error: android.os.FileUriExposedException: file:///storage/emulated/0/testDir/testFileName.txt exposed beyond app through ClipData.Item.getUri()
