                maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
  ...
 }
}

Step 2. Add the dependency

// builde.gradle(app level)
android{
 ...
 compileOptions {
                sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
                targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
        }
        dataBinding {
                enabled = true
        }
}

dependencies {
    implementation 'com.github.salehyarahmadi:FileAndFolderPicker:1.0.4'

Usage

Java

For select single file

if(permissionGranted()) {
    SingleFilePickerDialog singleFilePickerDialog = new SingleFilePickerDialog(this,
            () -> Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Canceled!!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(),
            files -> Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, files[0].getPath(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show());
    singleFilePickerDialog.show();
}
else{
    requestPermission();
}

For select multiple files

if(permissionGranted()) {
    MultiFilePickerDialog multiFilePickerDialog = new MultiFilePickerDialog(this,
            () -> Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Canceled!!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(),
            files -> Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, files[0].getPath(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
    );
    multiFilePickerDialog.show();
}
else{
    requestPermission();
}

For select directory

if(permissionGranted()) {
    DirectoryPickerDialog directoryPickerDialog = new DirectoryPickerDialog(this,
            () -> Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Canceled!!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(),
            files -> Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, files[0].getPath(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
    );
    directoryPickerDialog.show();
}
else{
    requestPermission();
}

Permissions

private boolean permissionGranted(){
    return ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED
            && ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED;
}
private void requestPermission(){
    ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, new String[]{Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE, Manifest.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE}, 1);
}

In all types, you receive an array of files. In case of single file and directory picker, you have to use index 0 of files array. But in multiple files picker you can use all indices of array.
