# File Management Subsystem Changelog

## cl.file.1 mediaLibrary APIs Changed

The **MediaLibrary** class of the multimedia component is replaced by the **FilePicker** class.

**Change Impact**

For applications developed based on earlier versions, pay attention to the changes of APIs. **FilePicker** is a system application preset in OpenHarmony. You can use it to select and save files.

**Key API/Component Changes**

The APIs of **MediaLibrary**, located in **@ohos.multimedia.medialibrary**, are deprecated. The **FilePicker** class, located in [@ohos.file.picker](https://gitee.com/openharmony/interface_sdk-js/blob/master/api/@ohos.file.picker.d.ts) is used.

**Adaptation Guide**

For example, refer to the code snippet below to call an API to select an image:

```js
import picker from '@ohos.file.picker';

async function example() {
    try {  
        let PhotoSelectOptions = new picker.PhotoSelectOptions();
        PhotoSelectOptions.MIMEType = picker.PhotoViewMIMETypes.IMAGE_TYPE;
        PhotoSelectOptions.maxSelectNumber = 1;
        let photoPicker = new picker.PhotoViewPicker();
        photoPicker.select(PhotoSelectOptions).then((PhotoSelectResult) => {
            if (PhotoSelectResult !== undefined) {
                console.info("PhotoViewPicker.select pass, PhotoSelectResult uri: " + JSON.stringify(PhotoSelectResult));
            } else {
                console.error("PhotoViewPicker.select PhotoSelectResult is undefined");
            }
        }).catch((err) => {
            console.error("PhotoViewPicker.select fail, err: " + err);
        });
    } catch (err) {
        console.error("PhotoViewPicker fail, err: " + err);
    }
}
```
