I wonder if there any way to get the original file name using PHAsset?
I use the following code to extract the file info.
[[PHImageManager defaultManager] requestImageDataForAsset:asset options:requestOption resultHandler:^(NSData *imageData, NSString *dataUTI, UIImageOrientation orientation, NSDictionary *info) {
entity.fileUrl = [info objectForKey:@"PHImageFileURLKey"];
entity.filename = [[NSFileManager defaultManager] displayNameAtPath:[ entity.fileUrl path]];
}];
However, It doesn't return original name but the name in the format "img_123"
I've just checked official apple docs . there has been introduced a new class PHAssetResource
and the property originalFilename
which is available in the iOS 9+. The problem is that I use the image picker library CTAssetsPickerController which 's based on the Photos framework; it returns picked image as the PHAsset
object . PS. I'm looking for the solution which is compatible with iOS 8 :).
Thank you!
On iOS 8 your solution is the right (and only approach) to get a filename at all.
On iOS 9 this works:
NSArray *resources = [PHAssetResource assetResourcesForAsset:asset];
NSString *orgFilename = ((PHAssetResource*)resources[0]).originalFilename;
