Getting 401 issue when file opener plugin installation

[anusha-kaparapu]

Hi @robingenz we got the below issue when installing the file opener plugin. File opener is a paid plugin?

Could you please provide the info.

npm install @capawesome-team/capacitor-file-opener
npm ERR! code E401
npm ERR! 401 Unauthorized - GET https://npm.pkg.github.com/@capawesome-team%2fcapacitor-file-opener - unauthenticated: User cannot be authenticated with the token provided.

if we use capacitor-file-picker plugin in a project, is there any impact on the future?

[robingenz]

No, it's also available via the public npm registry. If you want to use the private GitHub npm registry, you need to be a Capawesome Insider.

Thanks @robingenz , I have two more questions, please help me for the below questions.

1. Could you please confirm that capacitor-file-picker won't switch to a paid version in the future?
2. When will the file-opener plugin be made available to the general public?

[robingenz]

1. We do not plan to change the license for the Capacitor File Picker plugin.
2. It's already public, see here.

Thanks @robingenz,
We used the One of the API 'https://Xxxxx/View/upload-file.png?contentType=image/png' to get the actual image or file from Api response, but for image we are getting as a preview, for files like xls, pdf etc.. getting the response as blob.
Please help me how to handle this scenario? Thanks in Advance.
For example:
open = async (file) => {
await FileOpener.openFile({
path: 'Xxxxx/View/upload-file.png?contentType=image/png',
});
};
Got this error
Failed to open URL : Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-50 "invalid input parameters" UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=invalid input parameters, _LSLine=249, _LSFunction=-[_LSDOpenClient openURL:fileHandle:options:completionHandler:]}

You need to download the file first before opening it using the File Opener plugin.
