QUESTION
I have an aplication where at some point i need to acess user's contacts list and get data from there. For this i used Xamarin.Forms.Contacts(1.0.5)
plugins and it worked well. I was able to get Name Number Email PhotoUri PhotoUriThumbnail
from each contact. And then i display some of the infos on my aplication. However, i am not able to display image from PhotoUri
directory. PhotoUri
is a string with this format : content://android/...
. I tried converting PhotoUri
to ImageSource
and then use it on xaml file but nothing worked... Can anyone help ?

Answered 2019-Mar-24 at 07:42For getting data from a content://
URI, you can use the ContentResolver
. Specifically you can load the contents from the file with ContentResolver.OpenInputStream
(see here). To display the image you could use a StreamImageSource
(see here). Given you already have an Uri
, you can instantiate the StreamImageSource
as seen in the following snippet

I have a Xamarin.Forms PCL app, and I want to get contacts, I saw this plugin https://github.com/enisn/Xamarin.Forms.Contacts Because I am a new xamarin trainee I could not use it. I need someone who explain to and train me how I use it. I need that not for this exact plugin, I need that for another plugins which I will use them in my Journey with xamarin.

QUESTION
I have been researching a plugin that allows me to access the contacts in the phone of the user to display them in a list view. I tried to use James Montemagno “ContactsPlugin” but it is no longer supported. So, I found a plugin called “Xamarin.Forms.Contacts 1.0.3” which claims to be able to access the contacts but I don't know how to activate the plugin for it to display the contacts. Does anyone know how to use this plugin or knows how to access the contacts using something else? I am currently using the latest version of Visual Studio 2017 for Mac.
