CameraKit takes one of the hardest Android APIs and makes it into a high level and easy to use library that solves all of your problems.

With CameraKit you are able to seamlessly do the following...

• Image and video capture seamlessly working with the same preview session.
• Automatic system permission handling.
• Automatic preview scaling.
  • Create a CameraView of any size (not just presets!).
  • Automatic output cropping to match your CameraView bounds.
• Multiple capture methods.
  • METHOD_STANDARD: an image captured normally using the camera APIs.
  • METHOD_STILL: a freeze frame of the CameraView preview (similar to SnapChat and Instagram) for devices with slower cameras.
  • Coming soon: METHOD_SPEED: automatic capture method determination based on measured speed.
• Built-in continuous focus.
• Built-in tap to focus.
• Coming soon: Built-in pinch to zoom.

Add CameraKit to the dependencies block in your app level build.gradle:

compile 'com.wonderkiln:camerakit:0.11.0'

To use CameraKit, simply add a CameraView to your layout:

<com.wonderkiln.camerakit.CameraView android:id="@+id/camera" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:adjustViewBounds="true" />

Make sure you override onResume and onPause in your activity, and make calls respectively to CameraView.start() and CameraView.stop().

@Override protected void onResume() { super.onResume(); cameraView.start(); } @Override protected void onPause() { cameraView.stop(); super.onPause(); }
