react native + how to read a local file code example
Example 1: uri : source{require (`${RNFS.DocumentDirectoryPath}/`
import Video from "react-native-video";
<Video
source={{ uri: this.state.videoUri }}
ref={ref => {
this.player = ref;
}}
onError={this.videoError}
/>;
Example 2: uri : source{require (`${RNFS.DocumentDirectoryPath}/`
let fileName = videoURL.substring(videoURL.lastIndexOf("/") + 1, videoURL.length);
this.getVideoUrl(videoURL, fileName)
.then(res => {
this.setState({ videoUri: res });
})
.catch(url => {
this.setState({ videoUri: url });
});
getVideoUrl = (url, filename) => {
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
RNFS.readDir(RNFS.DocumentDirectoryPath)
.then(result => {
result.forEach(element => {
if (element.name == filename.replace(/%20/g, "_")) {
resolve(element.path);
}
});
})
.catch(err => {
reject(url);
});
});
};
Example 3: uri : source{require (`${RNFS.DocumentDirectoryPath}/`
let filename = videoUrl.substring(deviceuri.lastIndexOf("/") + 1, videoUrl.length);
let path_name = RNFS.DocumentDirectoryPath + filename;
RNFS.exists(path_name).then(exists => {
if (exists) {
console.log("Already downloaded");
} else {
RNFS.downloadFile({
fromUrl: videoUrl,
toFile: path_name.replace(/%20/g, "_"),
background: true
})
.promise.then(res => {
console.log("File Downloaded", res);
})
.catch(err => {
console.log("err downloadFile", err);
});
}
});
