Mobile Camera Configuration

import IMGLYCamera
import SwiftUI

struct ConfiguredCameraSolution: View {
  let settings = EngineSettings(license: secrets.licenseKey,
                                userID: "<your unique user id>")

  @State private var isPresented = false

  var body: some View {
    Button("Open the Camera") {
      isPresented = true
    }
    .fullScreenCover(isPresented: $isPresented) {
      let config = CameraConfiguration(
        recordingColor: .blue,
        highlightColor: .yellow,
        maxTotalDuration: 30,
        allowModeSwitching: true
      )

      Camera(
        settings,
        config: config,
        mode: .standard
      ) { result in
        switch result {
        case let .success(cameraResult):
          print(cameraResult)
        case let .failure(error):
          print(error.localizedDescription)
          isPresented = false
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

In this example, we will show you how to configure the camera.

License#

All the basic configuration settings are part of the EngineSettings which are required to initialize the camera.

let settings = EngineSettings(license: secrets.licenseKey,
                              userID: "<your unique user id>")

license – the license to activate the Engine with.

let settings = EngineSettings(license: secrets.licenseKey,

userID – an optional unique ID tied to your application’s user. This helps us accurately calculate monthly active users (MAU). Especially useful when one person uses the app on multiple devices with a sign-in feature, ensuring they’re counted once. Providing this aids in better data accuracy. The default value is nil.

userID: "<your unique user id>")

Configuration#

You can optionally pass a CameraConfiguration struct to the Camera initializer.

let config = CameraConfiguration(
  recordingColor: .blue,
  highlightColor: .yellow,
  maxTotalDuration: 30,
  allowModeSwitching: true
)

recordingColor – the color of the record button.

recordingColor: .blue,

highlightColor – the highlight color of the delete and confirm buttons.

highlightColor: .yellow,

maxTotalDuration – the total duration that the camera is allowed to record.

maxTotalDuration: 30,

allowModeSwitching – Set to false to lock the camera into its initial mode.

allowModeSwitching: true

Mode#

You can optionally configure the initial mode of the camera.

Available Modes#

.standard: the regular camera.
.dualCamera(layoutMode): records with both front and back camera at the same time.
- layoutMode determines the layout of the two cameras. Available options are .horizontal and .vertical.
.reaction(layoutMode, URL, positionsSwapped): records with the camera while playing back a video.
- layoutMode determines the layout of the two cameras. Available options are .horizontal and .vertical.
- URL the URL to video to record a reaction to.
- positionsSwapped a boolean indicating if the video and camera feed should swap positions. By default, the video being reacted to is on the top/left (depending on layoutMode).

mode: .standard
