this is my image

I try this but it is not working

storageRef.child("1/1.jpg").getDownloadUrl().getResult(); 

Answer 1

Try this: kotlin

 val storageFirebase = Firebase.storage
 val fullUrl = "gs://[bucket name]/[Folder]/[FileName]"  or 
               "gs://[bucket name]/[FileName]"
    
// Create a reference to a file from a Google Cloud Storage URI
   storageFirebase.getReferenceFromUrl(fullUrl).downloadUrl
   .addOnSuccessListener { urlImage -> 
   { Glide.with(context).load(urlImage).into(imageView) }
     .addOnFailureListener {  Toast.makeText(context, it.message, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show() }

I'm a little late on this question. I encountered this same problem, but getting the URL (ie: getDownloadUrl() as shown in the Firebase docs) for the file doesn't address the entire problem which is downloading the file.

This is because sending a download (or attachment) response to the browser requires the file content (not the URL). In order to get the URL and obtain the actual file content requires an HTTP request which isn't an option for us using the free Spark Firebase account.

To get around this, I used the download() method from the storage bucket which allowed me save the storage file as a local tmp file. Then I used an fs read stream to pipe the file content to the cloud function response...

const fireapp = '<thebucket>.appspot.com';
const gcs = require('@google-cloud/storage')({keyFilename:'serviceAccount.json'});
const bucket = gcs.bucket(fireapp);

// storage path
let fn = 'folder/theimage.png';

// allow CORS
res.set('Access-Control-Allow-Origin', '*');

// download w/o external http request 
// by download file from bucket
// and saving to tmp folder
const tempFilePath = path.join(os.tmpdir(), "tmpfile.jpg");
bucket.file(fn).download({destination: tempFilePath}).then(()=>{
    console.log('Image downloaded locally to', tempFilePath);
    var filestream = fs.createReadStream(tempFilePath);
    filestream.pipe(response);
});

Try this

// Create a storage reference from our app
StorageReference storageRef = storage.getReferenceFromUrl("gs://<your-bucket-name>");

// Create a reference with an initial file path and name
StorageReference pathReference = storageRef.child("users/me/yourpics.png");



storageRef.child("users/me/yourpics.png").getDownloadUrl().addOnSuccessListener(new OnSuccessListener<Uri>() {
            @Override
            public void onSuccess(Uri uri) {
                // Got the download URL for 'users/me/profile.png'
            }
        }).addOnFailureListener(new OnFailureListener() {
            @Override
            public void onFailure(@NonNull Exception exception) {
                // Handle any errors
            }
        });

Try this

---

// Create a storage reference from our app
StorageReference storageRef = storage.getReference();

// Or Create a reference to a file from a Google Cloud Storage URI
StorageReference gsReference = 
    storage.getReferenceFromUrl("gs://bucket/images/stars.jpg");


/*In this case we'll use this kind of reference*/
//Download file in Memory
StorageReference islandRef = storageRef.child("images/island.jpg");

final long ONE_MEGABYTE = 1024 * 1024;
islandRef.getBytes(ONE_MEGABYTE).addOnSuccessListener(new         
OnSuccessListener<byte[]>() {
    @Override
    public void onSuccess(byte[] bytes) {
        // Data for "images/island.jpg" is returns, use this as needed
    }
}).addOnFailureListener(new OnFailureListener() {
    @Override
    public void onFailure(@NonNull Exception exception) {
        // Handle any errors
    }
});

Answer 6

To download a file, first create a Cloud Storage reference to the file you want to download.

You can create a reference by appending child paths to the storage root, or you can create a reference from an existing gs:// or https:// URL referencing an object in Cloud Storage.

// Create a storage reference from our app
StorageReference storageRef = storage.getReference();

// Create a reference with an initial file path and name
StorageReference pathReference = storageRef.child("images/stars.jpg");

images is the child of root.

storageRef.child("images/stars.jpg").getDownloadUrl().addOnSuccessListener(new OnSuccessListener<Uri>() {
    @Override
    public void onSuccess(Uri uri) {
        // Got the download URL for 'users/me/profile.png'
    }
}).addOnFailureListener(new OnFailureListener() {
    @Override
    public void onFailure(@NonNull Exception exception) {
        // Handle any errors
    }
});
