      //Cancel handling, you might wanna remove taken photo if it was canceled
      if (source == EasyImage.ImageSource.CAMERA) {
          File photoFile = EasyImage.lastlyTakenButCanceledPhoto(MainActivity.this);
          if (photoFile != null) photoFile.delete();
      }
  }

####Additional configuration

  EasyImage.configuration(this)
          .setImagesFolderName("My app images") //images folder name, default is "EasyImage"
          //.saveInAppExternalFilesDir() //if you want to use root internal memory for storying images
          .saveInRootPicturesDirectory(); //if you want to use internal memory for storying images - default

Configuration is persisted so if you want to clear it before the next use call

EasyImage.clearConfiguration(Context context);

#Setup

##Runtime permissions Library requires permission from your app. Declare it in your AndroidMnifest.xml

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />

Please note that for devices running API 23 (marshmallow) you have to request this permission in the runtime, before calling EasyImage.openCamera(). It's demonstrated in the sample app.

There is also one issue about runtime permissions. According to the docs:

If your app targets M and above and declares as using the CAMERA permission which is not granted, then attempting to use this action will result in a SecurityException.

For this reason, if your app uses CAMERA permission, you should check it aswell as WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE before calling

EasyImage.openCamera()

This library will help you manage runtime permissions.
