Ionic App w / Cordova, how to integrate the camera?

Question

I am new to Node.js and started building my own application with the Ionic and Cardova Camera APIs.

I am currently launching the camera of an Android device using this demo.

What I want to do is insert the camera into the application, and not launch the camera, but I don’t know where to start.

Does Cordova support this type of functionality or will I have to use PhoneGap?

For example, this is in phonegap.

Or maybe write your own camera?

Answer 1

Indeed, you can do this with Ionic. Take a look at this official guide .

In short, this is:

• cordova org.apache.cordova.camera

• , :

  function takePicture() {
    navigator.camera.getPicture(function(imageURI) {
  
      // imageURI is the URL of the image that we can use for
      // an <img> element or backgroundImage.
  
    }, function(err) {
  
      // Ruh-roh, something bad happened
  
    }, cameraOptions);
  }
