## `camera.getPicture` Errata
|
|
|
|
#### Example <a name="camera-getPicture-examples"></a>
|
|
|
|
Take a photo and retrieve it as a base64-encoded image:
|
|
|
|
navigator.camera.getPicture(onSuccess, onFail, { quality: 50,
|
|
destinationType: Camera.DestinationType.DATA_URL
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
function onSuccess(imageData) {
|
|
var image = document.getElementById('myImage');
|
|
image.src = "data:image/jpeg;base64," + imageData;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
function onFail(message) {
|
|
alert('Failed because: ' + message);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Take a photo and retrieve the image's file location:
|
|
|
|
navigator.camera.getPicture(onSuccess, onFail, { quality: 50,
|
|
destinationType: Camera.DestinationType.FILE_URI });
|
|
|
|
function onSuccess(imageURI) {
|
|
var image = document.getElementById('myImage');
|
|
image.src = imageURI;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
function onFail(message) {
|
|
alert('Failed because: ' + message);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
#### Preferences (iOS)
|
|
|
|
- __CameraUsesGeolocation__ (boolean, defaults to false). For capturing JPEGs, set to true to get geolocation data in the EXIF header. This will trigger a request for geolocation permissions if set to true.
|
|
|
|
<preference name="CameraUsesGeolocation" value="false" />

|
#### Amazon Fire OS Quirks <a name="camera-getPicture-quirks"></a>
|
|
|
|
Amazon Fire OS uses intents to launch the camera activity on the device to capture
|
|
images, and on phones with low memory, the Cordova activity may be killed. In this
|
|
scenario, the image may not appear when the cordova activity is restored.
|
|
|
|
#### Android Quirks
|
|
|
|
Android uses intents to launch the camera activity on the device to capture
|
|
images, and on phones with low memory, the Cordova activity may be killed. In this
|
|
scenario, the image may not appear when the Cordova activity is restored.
|
|
|
|
#### Browser Quirks
|
|
|
|
Can only return photos as base64-encoded image.
|
|
|
|
#### Firefox OS Quirks
|
|
|
|
Camera plugin is currently implemented using [Web Activities](https://hacks.mozilla.org/2013/01/introducing-web-activities/).
|
|
|
|
#### iOS Quirks
|
|
|
|
Including a JavaScript `alert()` in either of the callback functions
|
|
can cause problems. Wrap the alert within a `setTimeout()` to allow
|
|
the iOS image picker or popover to fully close before the alert
|
|
displays:
|
|
|
|
setTimeout(function() {
|
|
// do your thing here!
|
|
}, 0);
|
|
|
|
#### Windows Phone 7 Quirks
|
|
|
|
Invoking the native camera application while the device is connected
|
|
via Zune does not work, and triggers an error callback.
|
|
|
|
#### Tizen Quirks
|
|
|
|
Tizen only supports a `destinationType` of
|
|
`Camera.DestinationType.FILE_URI` and a `sourceType` of
|
|
`Camera.PictureSourceType.PHOTOLIBRARY`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## `CameraOptions` Errata <a name="CameraOptions-quirks"></a>
|
|
|
|
#### Amazon Fire OS Quirks
|
|
|
|
- Any `cameraDirection` value results in a back-facing photo.
|
|
|
|
- Ignores the `allowEdit` parameter.
|
|
|
|
- `Camera.PictureSourceType.PHOTOLIBRARY` and `Camera.PictureSourceType.SAVEDPHOTOALBUM` both display the same photo album.
|
|
|
|
#### Android Quirks
|
|
|
|
- Any `cameraDirection` value results in a back-facing photo.
|
|
|
|
- Android also uses the Crop Activity for allowEdit, even though crop should work and actually pass the cropped image back to Cordova, the only one that works consistently is the one bundled
|
|
with the Google Plus Photos application. Other crops may not work.
|
|
|
|
- `Camera.PictureSourceType.PHOTOLIBRARY` and `Camera.PictureSourceType.SAVEDPHOTOALBUM` both display the same photo album.
|
|
|
|
#### BlackBerry 10 Quirks
|
|
|
|
- Ignores the `quality` parameter.
|
|
|
|
- Ignores the `allowEdit` parameter.
|
|
|
|
- `Camera.MediaType` is not supported.
|
|
|
|
- Ignores the `correctOrientation` parameter.
|
|
|
|
- Ignores the `cameraDirection` parameter.
|
|
|
|
#### Firefox OS Quirks
|
|
|
|
- Ignores the `quality` parameter.
|
|
|
|
- `Camera.DestinationType` is ignored and equals `1` (image file URI)
|
|
|
|
- Ignores the `allowEdit` parameter.
|
|
|
|
- Ignores the `PictureSourceType` parameter (user chooses it in a dialog window)
|
|
|
|
- Ignores the `encodingType`
|
|
|
|
- Ignores the `targetWidth` and `targetHeight`
|
|
|
|
- `Camera.MediaType` is not supported.
|
|
|
|
- Ignores the `correctOrientation` parameter.
|
|
|
|
- Ignores the `cameraDirection` parameter.
|
|
|
|
#### iOS Quirks
|
|
|
|
- When using `destinationType.FILE_URI`, photos are saved in the application's temporary directory. The contents of the application's temporary directory is deleted when the application ends.
|
|
|
|
- When using `destinationType.NATIVE_URI` and `sourceType.CAMERA`, photos are saved in the saved photo album regardless on the value of `saveToPhotoAlbum` parameter.
|
|
|
|
#### Tizen Quirks
|
|
|
|
- options not supported
|
|
|
|
- always returns a FILE URI
|
|
|
|
#### Windows Phone 7 and 8 Quirks
|
|
|
|
- Ignores the `allowEdit` parameter.
|
|
|
|
- Ignores the `correctOrientation` parameter.
|
|
|
|
- Ignores the `cameraDirection` parameter.
|
|
|
|
- Ignores the `saveToPhotoAlbum` parameter. IMPORTANT: All images taken with the wp7/8 cordova camera API are always copied to the phone's camera roll. Depending on the user's settings, this could also mean the image is auto-uploaded to their OneDrive. This could potentially mean the image is available to a wider audience than your app intended. If this a blocker for your application, you will need to implement the CameraCaptureTask as documented on msdn : [http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsphone/develop/hh394006.aspx](http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsphone/develop/hh394006.aspx)
|
|
You may also comment or up-vote the related issue in the [issue tracker](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-2083)
|
|
|
|
- Ignores the `mediaType` property of `cameraOptions` as the Windows Phone SDK does not provide a way to choose videos from PHOTOLIBRARY.
