Kustom resources #
As you might notice when you start using formulas for Bitmaps or other type of objects you might realize that Kustom
refers internally to resources using the form kfile://provider/path
, this is the internal URL scheme for looking
up local and remote files.
The provider represents the “source” and can be of two different types:
- Relative: when source is not known and Kustom has to look it up, a relative provider is always “org.kustom.provider”, this is the default when you export a preset and it will tell Kustom to search all available sources for a given preset and search for “path”
- Absolute: when source is known, this can generaly be
- A provider from an APK pack (their content provider)
- Kustom own provider (so for KWGT org.kustom.widget.provider)
- The SD card provider (starts with SDxx)
- The internal storage provider (starts with storage)
Please never hardcode a provider in a KFile, always use the relative path if you need to reference files manually
