I've got the same issue while trying to open a file on my physical android device. I've tested it also in iOS but that seems to work fine.

import { FileOpener } from '@capacitor-community/file-opener'
FileOpener.open({ filePath: localUrl, contentType: filetype })

the localUrl is an pdf hosted on our internal server. the contentType is application/pdf. The device crashes and returns to the desktop/home when trying to open the file. When I try to open a local image, I get the same result.

It seems like there's a NullPointerException from line 33 from FileOpenerPlugin.java
File file = new File(fileName);
The android terminal gives the following error:

Real machine running, android 13, use FileOpener.open to open the apk file crashes

@ZhangHuay The problem is that you are passing the wrong param. The parameter with the file path is filePath and not path and since the plugin is not provided the required parameter, it crashes.

[ryaa]

It seems like there's a NullPointerException from line 33 from FileOpenerPlugin.java

@kfvv NullPointerException will be thrown if the filePath parameter passed to open plugin method is null (see https://github.com/capacitor-community/file-opener/blob/master/android/src/main/java/com/ryltsov/alex/plugins/file/opener/FileOpenerPlugin.java#L33 and https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/io/File.html#File-java.lang.String-)

Please make sure that you provide filePath parameter with the right value. If you believe that you have provided the right value to the param, please provide more details (ideally, the repo in the github demonstrating the problem).

[ryaa]

Closing as this is not the plugin problem. Added this #46 to avoid plugin/app crash if require param(s) are not provided.
