I need to get the bitmap, bytearray or base64 string of an image that I captured with the Android camera.

To start the capture I am using this.

Intent takePictureIntent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);

            // Ensure that there's a camera activity to handle the intent

            if (takePictureIntent.resolveActivity(getPackageManager()) != null) {

                // Create the File where the photo should go

                File photoFile = null;

                try {

                    photoFile = createImageFile();

                } catch (IOException ex) {

                    // Error occurred while creating the File



                }

                // Continue only if the File was successfully created

                if (photoFile != null) {

                    Uri photoURI = FileProvider.getUriForFile(getApplicationContext(),

                            "com.myapp.app.fileprovider",

                            photoFile);

                    takePictureIntent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, photoURI);

                    startActivityForResult(takePictureIntent, REQUEST_TAKE_PHOTO);

                }

            }

I am able to save the photo to the gallery using this

private File createImageFile() throws IOException {

        // Create an image file name

        String timeStamp = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMdd_HHmmss").format(new Date());

        String imageFileName = "JPEG_" + timeStamp + "_";

        File storageDir = getExternalFilesDir(Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES);

        File image = File.createTempFile(

                imageFileName,  /* prefix */

                ".jpg",         /* suffix */

                storageDir      /* directory */

        );



        // Save a file: path for use with ACTION_VIEW intents

        mCurrentPhotoPath = image.getAbsolutePath();

        return image;

    }

And this is what I have tried so far but the bitmap variable seem to stay null.

@Override

protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {

    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);



        /*if (requestCode == REQUEST_IMAGE_CAPTURE && resultCode == RESULT_OK) {

            Bundle extras = data.getExtras();

            Bitmap imageBitmap = (Bitmap) extras.get("data");

            mImageView.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);

            mImageView.setImageBitmap(imageBitmap);

        }*/

    try {

        switch (requestCode) {



            case 1: {

                if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {



                    File file = new File(mCurrentPhotoPath);

                    Toast.makeText(this, mCurrentPhotoPath, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

                    Bitmap bitmap = MediaStore.Images.Media.getBitmap(getApplicationContext().getContentResolver(), Uri.fromFile(file));

                    if (bitmap != null) {



                        ByteArrayOutputStream byteArrayOutputStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();

                        bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, byteArrayOutputStream);

                        byte byteArray = byteArrayOutputStream.toByteArray();



                        String encoded = Base64.encodeToString(byteArray, Base64.DEFAULT);

                        Base = encoded;



                        if (Base != "") {

                            mCheck.setChecked(true);

                        }

                    }

                }

                break;

            }

        }



    } catch (Exception error) {

        error.printStackTrace();

    }

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
