[jira] [Commented] (CB-9898) ios getPicture() doesn't store image
permanently, only saves to temp directory
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-9898?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15166975#comment-15166975 ]
Thillaiganesh Chan commented on CB-9898:
----------------------------------------
Current Implementation is Correct. Event though the file return path is from \Tmp folder, a separate image copy is stored in the image gallery. Which is persistent.
Scenario 1:
When Plugin-Camera returns a file URL (which will be in Tmp folder), if user needs to store the file permanently, it should be moved to Documents Folder.
Scenario 2:
When Plugin-Camera returns a file URL (which will be in Tmp folder), if user needs just to share or upload to social media or similar. No further action is needed.

> Key: CB-9898
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-9898
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Plugin Camera
> Affects Versions: 1.2.0
> Reporter: Michael Schmidt
> Labels: iOS, mustfix, reproduced, triaged
>
> Camera options:
> - destinationType: Camera.DestinationType.FILE_URI,
> - saveToPhotoAlbum: true,
> - sourceType: Camera.PictureSourceType.CAMERA,
> Situation: getPicture() on iOS saves a newly taken image into the cordova.file.tempDirectory by default
> Problem: After closing & re-opening the app, the taken pictures are not available any more in the app - this functionality is only on iOS, all other platforms directly persist
> This requires for every camera usage a workaround on ios - Move the file to permanent storage after taking an image:

> -> directly save the images in permanent storage on iOS
