This library is a ReactNative Bridge around native libraries. It allows you to natively select/pick file from device file system:
Android: nbsp-team/MaterialFilePicker/ |
---|
Note: It allows you to pick file without using Intent/Third Party Software
iOS: marmelroy/FileBrowser |
---|
Note: It allows you to select only local files associate to app sandbox.
$ npm install react-native-file-selector --save
RN60 above please use
react-native-file-selector
V1 and above
iOS Prerequisite: Please make sure
CocoaPods
is installed on your system
- Add the following to your `Podfile` -> `ios/Podfile` and run pod update:

pod 'RNFileSelector', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-file-selector/ios'
use_frameworks!
pod 'FileBrowser', :git => 'https://github.com/prscX/FileBrowser'
Android
Add below snippet in your app's android/build.gradle
file
allprojects {
repositories {
maven {
url "http://dl.bintray.com/lukaville/maven"
}
...
}
}
android/app/src/main/res/values/color.xml
file. You can provide your own color codes. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
<color name="colorPrimary">#3F51B5</color>
<color name="colorPrimaryDark">#303F9F</color>
<color name="colorAccent">#FF4081</color>
</resources>

$ react-native link react-native-file-selector
build.gradle
filerepositories {

After react-native link react-native-file-selector
, please verify node_modules/react-native-file-selector/ios/
contains Pods
folder. If does not exist please execute pod install
command on node_modules/react-native-file-selector/ios/
, if any error => try pod repo update
then pod install
After verification, open your project and create a folder 'RNFileSelector' under Libraries.
Drag node_modules/react-native-file-selector/ios/pods/Pods.xcodeproject
into RNFileSelector, as well as the RNFileSelector.xcodeproject if it does not exist.
Add the FileBrowser.framework
into your project's Embedded Binaries
and make sure the framework is also in linked libraries.
Go to your project's Build Settings -> Frameworks Search Path
and add ${BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR}/FileBrowser
non-recursive.
Add below snippet in your app AppDelegate.m
. This basically adds navigation controller in order to push list of files screen
UINavigationController *navigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:rootViewController];
navigationController.navigationBar.hidden = YES;
self.window.rootViewController = navigationController;
// self.window.rootViewController = rootViewController;
import RNFileSelector from 'react-native-file-selector';
RNFileSelector.Show(
{
title: 'Select File',
onDone: (path) => {
console.log('file selected: ' + path)
},
onCancel: () => {
console.log('cancelled')
}
}
)
<RNFileSelector title={"Select File"} visible={this.state.visible} onDone={() => {
console.log("file selected: " + path);
}} onCancel={() => {
console.log("cancelled");

I open-source almost everything I can, and I try to reply everyone needing help using these projects. Obviously, this takes time. You can integrate and use these projects in your applications for free! You can even change the source code and redistribute (even resell it).
However, if you get some profit from this or just want to encourage me to continue creating stuff, there are few ways you can do it:
If you're feeling especially charitable, please follow prscX on GitHub.
