Installation

tns plugin add https://github.com/pboulch/nativescript-file-plugin/raw/master/publish/package/nativescript-file-plugin-1.1.0.tgz

Usage

On Android, this plugin requires the following permissions : READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE and WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE. On iOS, you have to pass the current viewController as a parameter. It can be passed on android, it's just useless. It allows to open the picker from another window (for example a modal).

let filePlugin = new FilePlugin();
filePlugin.getFileURI(page.viewController).subscribe((uri) => {
    if (uri != ""){
        console.log("File selected's uri : " + uri);
    }
});
