Walkthrough

The changes involve updating the mobile app configuration to enhance media file access permissions on Android devices. A new plugin for expo-image-picker is introduced with a specific photos permission message. Two additional Android permissions are added to improve the app's ability to read media images and videos, supporting more robust media sharing functionality.

Changes

Poem

🐰 Permissions dance, a rabbit's delight,
Media files now shine so bright!
Images and videos, freely they flow
Android's gates now open, ready to go
A sharing adventure, permission's embrace 📸🎉

66-68: Well-structured permission strategy for cross-version Android support!

The combination of permissions is correct:

• READ_MEDIA_IMAGES and READ_MEDIA_VIDEO for Android 13+ (API 33+)
• READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE for backward compatibility
• ACCESS_MEDIA_LOCATION for accessing media location metadata

This ensures proper media access across different Android versions.

31-36: Verify if both expo-image-picker and expo-media-library plugins are necessary.

The configuration looks correct, but there seems to be potential functionality overlap between expo-image-picker and expo-media-library plugins. Both handle photo access permissions.

Let's check the codebase for usage patterns:

✅ Verification successful

Both expo-image-picker and expo-media-library plugins are necessary and correctly configured.

The plugins serve complementary purposes:

• expo-image-picker provides the image selection UI and picker experience
• expo-media-library handles media permissions and asset access

🏁 Scripts executed

The following scripts were executed for the analysis:

Script:

#!/bin/bash
# Search for usage of both libraries to verify if both are necessary
echo "Checking expo-media-library usage:"
rg "import.*expo-media-library" -A 5
echo "Checking expo-image-picker usage:"
rg "import.*expo-image-picker" -A 5

🪧 Tips

Chat

There are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit:

• Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example:
  • I pushed a fix in commit <commit_id>, please review it.
  • Generate unit testing code for this file.
  • Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.
• Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
  • @coderabbitai generate unit testing code for this file.
  • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
• PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
  • @coderabbitai gather interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table. Additionally, render a pie chart showing the language distribution in the codebase.
  • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit testing code.
  • @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.
  • @coderabbitai help me debug CodeRabbit configuration file.

Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments.
