How can I open an external app with a file? - flutter

I have a question, I can't find the right one online.
I create a file and then want it to be opened by the app that matches the extension. Which should the user decide for himself if necessary. Such as e.g. opening an attachment in a mail.
Unfortunately, I can't find anything how I can persuade the system to do so with dart / flutter.
Can someone please help me.
Many thanks.
Mike

This plugin seems to do what you want

Try to pass file path to open method as pecified in documentation
OpenFile.open("/sdcard/example.txt");

How to create an Apple 'Associated Domain File' without an extension

According to Apple's documentation, I need to add a file to my website called apple-app-site-association without an extension in order to utilize App Clips:
To add the associated domain file to your website, create a file named apple-app-site-association (without an extension).
However, I can't seem to accomplish that. According to iPage support, it's not possible to have a file without an extension.
Question: Is it truly necessary for this file to be without an extension, or is there an acceptable extension I can use? What would you recommend I do, here, since iPage says it's not possible?
Thank you!
I solved the problem by uploading the file via FTP (FileZilla).

Access filesystem from AEM

Is there a way to access a file (present on the File System) from AEM. More specifically, I have requirement wherein:
1. I need to fetch a custom log file (present under crx-quickstart/logs/.log
2. Send an email with this file attached via AEM
Any inputs would be really appreciated.
You can do this via java fileinputstream and associated api's. Use relative paths to access the file so that once your code is deployed to other environments(servers) it doesn't error out with any IO exception.
The answer to this question is same as Link to your answer
This is just a suggestion that go for the question suggested by the stackoverflow first when you are typing your question. As the same question has already been asked before.
Thank you...

How can I simply add a downloadable PDF file to my page?

I want to add a pdf and word format of my resume to my portfolio page and make it downloadable. Does anyone have some simple script?
Add a link to the file and let the browser handle the download.
You may be over-complicating the problem. It's possible to use a href pointing to the location of the .pdf or .doc file, when a user clicks on this in their browser, generally they will be asked if they would like to save or open the file, depending on their OS/configuration.
If this is still confusing, leave a comment and I'll explain anything you don't get.
Create the PDF. Upload it. Add a link.
Save yourself 30 minutes tossing around with PDFGEN code.
You will want to issue or employ the Content-Disposition HTTP header to force the download otherwise some browsers may recognize the common file extensions and try to automatically open the file contents. It will feel more professional if the link actually downloads the file instead of launching an app - important for a resume I think.
Content-Disposition must be generated within the page from the server side as far as I know.
Option:
Upload your resume to Google Docs.
Add a link to the file on your portfolio page just as I do in the menu of my blog:
Use Google Docs Viewer passing to it the URL of the PDF as you can see in this link.

Launch my app using email attachement

I want to bind my app to some file extension so when I receive an email with an attached file with the correct extension, clicking on it will launch my app and pass it the attached file.
Is it possible ? How ?
Thx

As iPhone applications are not allowed to share files on the file system, what you're looking for is not immediately possible (not with the published APIs that I know of, anyway). You might still have a couple of options though.
Either way you'll have to use a custom URL scheme, which is associated with your app, and paste that into your email. This URL might point to some external location, which your app can download the file from.
Or it might contain the actual file contents if it's fairly small. URLs are 'just text' (some restrictions apply), so you're free to put any data you want to in it, as long as it is URL-encoded.
You still need to get the URL into the email though, which might or might not be as easy as attaching a file.
It's not possible to simply associate a file extension with an application on the iPhone.
You could create a custom URL scheme that would launch your app, but probably that won't help you.
This is actually possible, I'm working on this exact same problem and this great tutorial has really helped me.
