Introduction to Amplify Storage

Initialize Amplify Storage

To initialize the Amplify Auth and Storage categories you call Amplify.addPligin() method for each category.
To complete initialization call Amplify.configure().

Java Initialization

Add the following code to your onCreate() method in your applicaiton class:

Amplify.addPlugin(new AWSCognitoAuthPlugin());
Amplify.addPlugin(new AWSS3StoragePlugin());’

Your class should look like this:

public class MyAmplifyApp extends Application {
    @Override
    public void onCreate() {
        super.onCreate();

        try {
            // Add these lines to add the AWSCognitoAuthPlugin and AWSS3StoragePlugin plugins
            Amplify.addPlugin(new AWSCognitoAuthPlugin());
            Amplify.addPlugin(new AWSS3StoragePlugin());
            Amplify.configure(getApplicationContext());

            Log.i("MyAmplifyApp", "Initialized Amplify");
        } catch (AmplifyException error) {
            Log.e("MyAmplifyApp", "Could not initialize Amplify", error);
        }
    }
}
