i wasted 6 days (and counting) struggling to display an image from gallery on android using ionic3-cordova
this.fileChooser.open()
.then((uri) => {
console.log('image uri is', uri);
})
i cannot use uri directly to bind to my tag's src
i tried to use another plugin and get a file entry
return this.file.resolveLocalFilesystemUrl(uri);
i cannot use that either... unsafe uri!
then i used this.domSanitizer.bypassSecurityTrustUrl(entry.toInternalURL());
and i cannot use that either to bind to img src
i do not understand the point in getting an uri, converting to another for security and then converting to another again for more security.. and still can't meet the purpose...
frustration aside, please help me how to bind the html img tag's src to chosen image from gallery in this ever changing angular cordova ionic world.. the doc/questions answered a semester ago are already outdated with angular 6
i added the cdvfile: in content security policy tag in index.html
i am binding the img tag in html like this
<img class="profile-img" [src]="imageSrc" />
the final error i get after diaper-changing the entry's internal url and binding it to img src is
GET cdvfile://localhost/content/com.android.providers.media.documents/document/image%3A4350:1 GET cdvfile://localhost/content/com.android.providers.media.documents/document/image%3A4350 0 ()

I got it working with ImagePicker. Here is how I did it
in TS file:
and HTML is
<img [src]="imageSrc" class="profile-image" />
