Component props

storagePath

Type: string. Full path (e.g. "/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/[UUID]/Documents") that the component should use when writing photos.

projectName

Type: string. For displaying only.

projectAddress

Type: string. For displaying only.

exifLat

Type: number. Latitude to be written to EXIF data.

exifLon

Type: number. Longitude to be written to EXIF data.

exifLocTimestamp

Type: number. Unix timestamp (in seconds) for location, to be written to EXIF data.

onClose

Type: (errmsg: string, button: string) => void. Close the camera (i.e., stop rendering the component). The button argument indicates why the close request was made:

• button === 'error': An error occurred; description is given by errmsg
• button === 'label': The address label was pressed
• button === 'close': The close button was pressed
• button === 'capture': A photo was taken, and needs to be confirmed/edited

onPhotoTaken

Type: (file: string, dims: [w: int, h: int], photoOrigin: string) => void. Invoked when a photo is taken and should be displayed to the user for reviewing or editing. Valid photoOrigin values are:

• undefined or null: No origin information; treat as 'STANDARD_CAMERA'
• 'STANDARD_CAMERA': Taken as normal photo without fastcam
• 'STANDARD_CAMERA_FASTCAM': Taken as normal photo with fastcam
• 'STANDARD_CAMERA_DOCSCAN': Taken with document scanner

onPhotoAccepted

Type: (file: string, dims: [w: int, h: int], photoOrigin: string) => void. Invoked when a photo is taken and should be immediately uploaded. Valid photoOrigin values are the same as for onPhotoTaken.

auxModeCaption

Type: string. Caption for the 'auxiliary' button at the bottom (e.g. 'AFTER CAM').

onAuxModeClicked

Type: () => void. Invoked when the 'auxiliary' button at the bottom is pressed (e.g. launch after cam).

hideNativeUI

Type: bool. Determine whether the native UI should be hidden (default is false).

Development

OpenCV Setup

iOS:

Download the v3.2.0 iOS pack from https://opencv.org/releases.html and put opencv2.framework into node_modules/companycam-camera/ios.

Android:

Add NDK via Android SDK manager. Install OpenCV Android SDK. In android/app/CMakeLists.txt, make sure the line SET(OpenCV_DIR [...]/OpenCV-android-sdk/sdk/native/jni) is pointing to the correct path (we should figure out a way to avoid this step).

Scanner functionality

The scanner's functionality is in the repo companycam-docscan. At the moment, the correct workflow to modify the scanner is to clone that repo, modify the files there, and copy the files in lib/src to both the Android and iOS native folders of companycam-camera. In other words, don't modify the docscan files in companycam-camera, because they are duplicated for Android and iOS and will get out of sync that way.
