Enum PickedFile 

pub enum PickedFile {
    Path(PathBuf),
    Handle(Box<dyn FileHandle>),
    Stream(Box<dyn FileStream>),
}

A file the user picked, as the system gives it.

Variants

Path(PathBuf)

macOS, iOS, Windows and Linux: a path the app opens as any file.

Handle(Box<dyn FileHandle>)

The web, and Android where the document seeks, as it always does when writable.

Stream(Box<dyn FileStream>)

Android where the document is a pipe: read once, start to end. Read-only picks only.

Implementations

impl PickedFile

pub fn url(&self) -> String

The URL a player, or any API that takes a URL, reads the file by, as every system’s player does: a file: URL for a path, absolute and percent-encoded; Android’s content: URI; the web’s blob: URL, of the file as it was when picked. A blob: URL is made once a pick and never revoked: a player may read it after the pick is let go, so the page keeps the file until it unloads.

pub fn read_all( &mut self, ) -> Pin<Box<dyn Future<Output = Result<Vec<u8>>> + '_>>

The whole file, as Flutter’s XFile.readAsBytes reads it: a path is read on a thread of its own, a handle from its start to its end, and a stream through, which uses it up.
