A detailed tutorial with thourough explanation will be found on my blog.

This tutorial will be in Kotlin

Introduction

Since Android 6 (Marshmellow) app developers have to ask for various permission like storage, camera, mic, location etc before they can be used/accessed.

Although handling permission is not a straight forward task & involves a lot of lines of code & its subsequent handling thereafter.

Goal

We will use permissions-android wrapper library to ask system permission in a single line of code

Getting Started

• Add the permissions-android library in your app.gradle (always check for latest version)

DawnImpulse/permissions-android

implementation 'org.sourcei.android:permissions:1.0.1'

• Whenever you need to ask for a permission eg storage simple call

Conclusion

And that's all to it. It is so simple to handle various permissions with this library.

You can even ask multiple permissions in a go, check out the library on Github to know more
