There are a few things to note: * Using `EasyPermissions#hasPermissions(...)` to check if the app already has the required permissions. This method can take any number of permissions as its final argument. * Requesting permissions with `EasyPermissions#requestPermissions`. This method will request the system permissions and show the rationale string provided if necessary. The request code provided should be unique to this request, and the method can take any number of permissions as its final argument. * Use of the `AfterPermissionGranted` annotation. This is optional, but provided for convenience. If all of the permissions in a given request are granted, *all* methods annotated with the proper request code will be executed(be sure to have an unique request code). The annotated method needs to be *void* and *without input parameters* (instead, you can use *onSaveInstanceState* in order to keep the state of your suppressed parameters). This is to simplify the common flow of needing to run the requesting method after all of its permissions have been granted. This can also be achieved by adding logic on the `onPermissionsGranted` callback. ```java @AfterPermissionGranted(RC_CAMERA_AND_LOCATION) private void methodRequiresTwoPermission() { String[] perms = {Manifest.permission.CAMERA, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION}; if (EasyPermissions.hasPermissions(this, perms)) { // Already have permission, do the thing // ... } else { // Do not have permissions, request them now EasyPermissions.requestPermissions(this, getString(R.string.camera_and_location_rationale), RC_CAMERA_AND_LOCATION, perms); } } ``` Or for finer control over the rationale dialog, use a `PermissionRequest`: ```java EasyPermissions.requestPermissions( new PermissionRequest.Builder(this, RC_CAMERA_AND_LOCATION, perms) .setRationale(R.string.camera_and_location_rationale) .setPositiveButtonText(R.string.rationale_ask_ok) .setNegativeButtonText(R.string.rationale_ask_cancel) .setTheme(R.style.my_fancy_style) .build()); ``` Optionally, for a finer control, you can have your `Activity` / `Fragment` implement the `PermissionCallbacks` interface. ```java public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements EasyPermissions.PermissionCallbacks { @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.activity_main); } @Override public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, String[] permissions, int[] grantResults) { super.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults); // Forward results to EasyPermissions EasyPermissions.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults, this); } @Override public void onPermissionsGranted(int requestCode, List list) { // Some permissions have been granted // ... } @Override public void onPermissionsDenied(int requestCode, List list) { // Some permissions have been denied // ... } } ``` ### Required Permissions In some cases your app will not function properly without certain permissions. If the user denies these permissions with the "Never Ask Again" option, you will be unable to request these permissions from the user and they must be changed in app settings. You can use the method `EasyPermissions.somePermissionPermanentlyDenied(...)` to display a dialog to the user in this situation and direct them to the system setting screen for your app: **Note**: Due to a limitation in the information provided by the Android framework permissions API, the `somePermissionPermanentlyDenied` method only works after the permission has been denied and your app has received the `onPermissionsDenied` callback. Otherwise the library cannot distinguish permanent denial from the "not yet denied" case. ```java @Override public void onPermissionsDenied(int requestCode, List perms) { Log.d(TAG, "onPermissionsDenied:" + requestCode + ":" + perms.size()); // (Optional) Check whether the user denied any permissions and checked "NEVER ASK AGAIN." // This will display a dialog directing them to enable the permission in app settings. if (EasyPermissions.somePermissionPermanentlyDenied(this, perms)) { new AppSettingsDialog.Builder(this).build().show(); } } @Override public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) { super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data); if (requestCode == AppSettingsDialog.DEFAULT_SETTINGS_REQ_CODE) { // Do something after user returned from app settings screen, like showing a Toast. Toast.makeText(this, R.string.returned_from_app_settings_to_activity, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT) .show(); } } ``` ### Interacting with the rationale dialog Implement the `EasyPermissions.RationaleCallbacks` if you want to interact with the rationale dialog. ```java @Override public void onRationaleAccepted(int requestCode) { // Rationale accepted to request some permissions // ... } @Override public void onRationaleDenied(int requestCode) { // Rationale denied to request some permissions // ... } ``` Rationale callbacks don't necessarily imply permission changes. To check for those, see the `EasyPermissions.PermissionCallbacks`. ## LICENSE ``` Copyright 2017 Google Licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0 (the "License"); you may not use this file except in compliance with the License.
