## Public fields

### uri

```
public @Nullable Uri uri
```

## Public constructors

### ByteArrayDataSource

```
public ByteArrayDataSource(byte[] data)
```

Creates an instance.

| Parameters |
|---|---|
| `byte[] data` | The data to be read. |

### ByteArrayDataSource

```
public ByteArrayDataSource(ByteArrayDataSource.UriResolver uriResolver)
```

Creates an instance.

| Parameters |
|---|---|
| `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/datasource/ByteArrayDataSource.UriResolver uriResolver` | Function to resolve from `https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/Uri.html` to `byte[]` during `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/datasource/ByteArrayDataSource#open(androidx.media3.datasource.DataSpec)`. |

## Public methods

### close

```
public void close()
```

Closes the source. This method must be called even if the corresponding call to `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/datasource/DataSource#open(androidx.media3.datasource.DataSpec)` threw an `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/io/IOException.html`.

| Throws |
|---|---|
| `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/io/IOException.html` | If an error occurs closing the source. |

### getUri

```
public @Nullable Uri getUri()
```

When the source is open, returns the `https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/Uri.html` from which data is being read. The returned `https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/Uri.html` will be identical to the one passed `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/datasource/DataSource#open(androidx.media3.datasource.DataSpec)` in the `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/datasource/DataSpec` unless redirection has occurred. If redirection has occurred, the `https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/Uri.html` after redirection is returned.

| Returns |
|---|---|
| `@https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/annotation/Nullable https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/Uri.html` | The `https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/Uri.html` from which data is being read, or null if the source is not open. |

### open

```
public long open(DataSpec dataSpec)
```

Opens the source to read the specified data. If an `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/io/IOException.html` is thrown, callers must still call `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/datasource/DataSource#close()` to ensure that any partial effects of the invocation are cleaned up.

The following edge case behaviors apply:

- If the `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/datasource/DataSpec#position()` is within the resource, but the `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/datasource/DataSpec#length()` extends beyond the end of the resource, then `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/datasource/DataSource#open(androidx.media3.datasource.DataSpec)` will succeed and data from the requested position to the end of the resource will be made available through `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/common/DataReader#read(byte[],int,int)`.
- If the `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/datasource/DataSpec#position()` is equal to the length of the resource, then `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/datasource/DataSource#open(androidx.media3.datasource.DataSpec)` will succeed, and `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/common/DataReader#read(byte[],int,int)` will immediately return `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/common/C#RESULT_END_OF_INPUT()`.
- If the `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/datasource/DataSpec#position()` is greater than the length of the resource, then `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/datasource/DataSource#open(androidx.media3.datasource.DataSpec)` will throw an `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/io/IOException.html` for which `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/datasource/DataSourceException#isCausedByPositionOutOfRange(java.io.IOException)` will be `true`.

| Parameters |
|---|---|
| `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/datasource/DataSpec dataSpec` | Defines the data to be read. |

| Returns |
|---|---|
| `long` | The number of bytes that can be read from the opened source. For unbounded requests (i.e., requests where `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/datasource/DataSpec#length()` equals `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/common/C#LENGTH_UNSET()`) this value is the resolved length of the request, or `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/common/C#LENGTH_UNSET()` if the length is still unresolved. For all other requests, the value returned will be equal to the request's `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/datasource/DataSpec#length()`. |

| Throws |
|---|---|
| `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/io/IOException.html` | If an error occurs opening the source. `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/datasource/DataSourceException` can be thrown or used as a cause of the thrown exception to specify the reason of the error. |

### read

```
public int read(byte[] buffer, int offset, int length)
```

Reads up to `length` bytes of data from the input.

If `readLength` is zero then 0 is returned. Otherwise, if no data is available because the end of the opened range has been reached, then `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/common/C#RESULT_END_OF_INPUT()` is returned. Otherwise, the call will block until at least one byte of data has been read and the number of bytes read is returned.

| Parameters |
|---|---|
| `byte[] buffer` | A target array into which data should be written. |
| `int offset` | The offset into the target array at which to write. |
| `int length` | The maximum number of bytes to read from the input. |

| Returns |
|---|---|
| `int` | The number of bytes read, or `https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/media3/common/C#RESULT_END_OF_INPUT()` if the input has ended. This may be less than `length` because the end of the input (or available data) was reached, the method was interrupted, or the operation was aborted early for another reason. |

| Throws |
|---|---|
| `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/io/IOException.html` | If an error occurs reading from the input. |
