How to write an image file in internal storage in android?
This example demonstrates How to write an image file in internal storage in android.
Step 1 − Create a new project in Android Studio, go to File ⇒ New Project and fill all required details to create a new project.
Step 2 − Add the following code to res/layout/activity_main.xml.
<?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android = "http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:tools = "http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:layout_width = "match_parent" android:layout_height = "match_parent" tools:context = ".MainActivity" android:orientation = "vertical"> <Button android:id = "@+id/save" android:text = "save" android:layout_width = "wrap_content" android:layout_height = "wrap_content" /> </LinearLayout>

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.util.Log;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
Button save;
Bitmap bitmap;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Drawable drawable = getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.mario);
bitmap = ((BitmapDrawable) drawable).getBitmap();
save = findViewById(R.id.save);
save.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
ContextWrapper cw = new ContextWrapper(getApplicationContext());
File directory = cw.getDir("imageDir", Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
File file = new File(directory, "UniqueFileName" + ".jpg");
if (!file.exists()) {
Log.d("path", file.toString());
FileOutputStream fos = null;
try {
fos = new FileOutputStream(file);
bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, fos);
fos.flush();
fos.close();
} catch (java.io.IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
});
