React-native-document-picker: iOS 11 and Dropbox

[sergiocloud]

In iOS 11 the native behaviour is different. Now there is a new option menu:

If click on "Browse":

"Browse" tab:

If click on "Locations":

There are all storage apps, if you pick a document from iCloud Drive or Drive, the component works all right but if you pick one from Dropbox there is no response, the callback is not called.
Does anyone know why?

Dang. I don't own an Iphone anymore, this looks tricky...

Hi @sergiocloud,
Have you solved this issue? I meet the same problem with you. Or do you know how to hide Dropbox selection in the list of Locations?
Thank you.

[sergiocloud]

Sorry, I haven't time to look for solutions

@anbnb @sergiocloud any luck with this issue?

[sergiocloud]

@KubaGL nothing, sorry

It looks like UIDocumentMenuViewController has been deprecated in iOS 11.

Seems like Apple intends to use the Present the Most Recently Used Document Picker approach which would launch the picker immediately.

Otherwise, as suggested here, one could combine the above with your own action sheet.

@LordParsley this is done in v3

It is not showing all other options(dropbox, googledrive etc)Just showing one option "Browse".I tried the changes of commit : " https://github.com/Elyx0/react-native-document-picker/commit/2675553a67a9cf7ee46f8faf04c0533c2cba1778" it direct me to browse detail view without displaying any actionsheet but I need all other options in action-sheet.

@navibrar You're not supposed to see an ActionSheet, the point of that commit is that Apple has deprecated the action sheet pattern and you're supposed to go directly to the detail view and use the menu if you want to switch to another option.

How to display "Dropbox", "Documents" and "Google Drive" under Locations? During my test, only "iCloud Drive" is shown.

Same as Muran-Hu, only iCloud documents can be selected via v3 on ios11 (not checked <=ios10 yet). Any way to get the other options? In particular I need the user to be able to select a local file from the device.

[ggunti]

Me too. Why only iCloud documents can be selected?
