# file_picker_darwin The iOS and macOS implementation of `file_picker`. ## Usage This package is endorsed, which means you can simply use `file_picker` as normal, and the iOS and macOS implementations will be automatically included. ## macOS setup A sandboxed macOS app needs a files entitlement before the picker can return a usable path, without it every pick or save fails with an entitlement error. Add one of the following to both `macos/Runner/DebugProfile.entitlements` and `macos/Runner/Release.entitlements`, depending on whether your app only needs to read picked files or also needs to write to them: Read-only access: ```xml com.apple.security.files.user-selected.read-only ``` Read and write access (required for `saveFile()`): ```xml com.apple.security.files.user-selected.read-write ``` You can also add these from Xcode, under your target's *Signing & Capabilities* tab, in the *App Sandbox* section. #### Pick iOS media using its current representation ```dart List files = await FilePicker.pickFiles( type: FileType.video, compressionQuality: 0, darwinOptions: const DarwinOptions( assetRepresentationMode: DarwinAssetRepresentationMode.current, ), ); ``` The available modes are `automatic` (the default), `current`, and `compatible`. This option applies only to the iOS photo-library picker. Non-automatic modes require `compressionQuality` to be `0`.
