Camera Photographing Sample

Development Process

After obtaining the output stream capabilities supported by the camera, create a photo stream. The development process is as follows:

Sample Code

import camera from '@ohos.multimedia.camera'
import image from '@ohos.multimedia.image'
import media from '@ohos.multimedia.media'

// Create a CameraManager instance.
context: any = getContext(this)

    console.info(`camera : ${cameraStatusInfo.camera.cameraId}`);
    console.info(`status: ${cameraStatusInfo.status}`);
})

// Obtain the camera list.
let cameraArray = cameraManager.getSupportedCameras();

    return;
} 

for (let index = 0; index < cameraArray.length; index++) {

    console.info('connectionType : ' + cameraArray[index].connectionType);              // Obtain the camera connection type.
}
