React Native HTML to PDF NPM Package, File download Wrong filePath problem

#reactnative #filedownload #hmtltopdf #android

Go directly to the source code in your node module

`
react-native-html-pdf -> android -> com -> christopherdro -> htmltopdf -> RNHTMLtoPDFModule.java
In the convert() function change this code block

`

File path = (Environment.MEDIA_MOUNTED.equals(state)) ?
          new File(mReactContext.getExternalFilesDir(null), options.getString(DIRECTORY)) :
          new File(mReactContext.getFilesDir(), options.getString(DIRECTORY));
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Replace With

File path =  new File(Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_DOCUMENTS), options.getString(DIRECTORY));
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
