A simple example

The following example shows of how you can use the file dialog to let the user select a file.
See the full example at: https://github.com/fluxxcode/egui-file-dialog/tree/master/examples/select_file

use egui_file_dialog::FileDialog;

struct MyApp {
    file_dialog: FileDialog,
}

impl MyApp {
    pub fn new() -> Self {
        Self {
            // Create a new FileDialog instance
            file_dialog: FileDialog::new(),
        }
    }
}

impl MyApp {
    fn update(&mut self, ctx: &egui::Context, ui: &mut egui::Ui) {
        if ui.button("Select file").clicked() {
            // Open the file dialog to select a file
            self.file_dialog.select_file();
        }

        // Update the dialog and check if the user selected a file
        if let Some(path) = self.file_dialog.update(ctx).selected() {
            println!("Selected file: {:?}", path);
        }
    }
