Support	SDK 21+

- A device with a camera

2. Installation

npm install @biopassid/face-sdk-react-native

Android

minSdkVersion 21

Change the compile Android sdk version to 31 (or higher) in your android/app/build.gradle file.

3. How to use

To call Face Capture in your React Native project is as easy as follow:

import React from "react";
import { StyleSheet, View, Button } from "react-native";
import {
  FaceConfigPreset,
  FaceConfigType,
  FaceEvent,
  buildCameraView,
  FaceCameraLensDirection,
} from "@biopassid/face-sdk-react-native";

const App = () => {
  const config = FaceConfigPreset.getConfig(
    FaceConfigType.FACE_CAPTURE
  )
    .setLicenseKey("your-license-key")
    .setDefaultCameraPosition(FaceCameraLensDirection.FRONT)
    .setShowFlipCameraButton(true)
    .setStringsScreenTitle("Capturando Face")
    .setStylesOverlayColor("#CC000000");

  const callback = (event: FaceEvent) => {
    // handle Face return
    console.log(event.photo);
  };

  const handleButton = () => {
    buildCameraView(config, callback);
  };

  return (
    <View style={styles.container}>
      <Button onPress={handleButton} title="Capture Face" />
    </View>
  );
};

export default App;

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {
    flex: 1,
    alignItems: "center",
    justifyContent: "center",
    backgroundColor: '#FFFFFF',
  },
});

FaceConfig

You can also use pre-build configurations on your application, so you can automatically start using multiples services and features that better suit your application. You can instantiate each one and use it's default properties, or if you prefer you can change every config available. Here are the types that are supported right now:

Changing Font Family

You can use the default font family or set a font you prefer. To set a font, create a folder font under res directory in your android/app/src/main/res. Download the font which ever you want and paste it inside font folder. All font names must be only: lowercase a-z, 0-9, or underscore. The structure should be some thing like below.

Then, just set the font passing the name of the font file.

const config = FaceConfigPreset.getConfig(FaceConfigType.FACE_CAPTURE)
  .setStylesFontFamily("roboto_mono_bold_italic");

Changing Icon

You can use the default icon or set a icon you prefer. To set a icon, download the icon which ever you want and paste it inside drawable folder in your android/app/src/main/res. The structure should be some thing like below.

Then, just set the font passing the name of the icon file.

const config = FaceConfigPreset.getConfig(FaceConfigType.FACE_CAPTURE)
  // changing back button icon
  .setStylesBackButtonIcon("ic_baseline_camera")
  // changing flash button icon
  .setStylesFlashButtonIcon("ic_baseline_camera")
  // changing flip camera button icon
  .setStylesFlipCameraButtonIcon("ic_baseline_camera")
  // changing capture button icon
  .setStylesCaptureButtonIcon("ic_baseline_camera");

FaceSize

Variable name	Type
width	number
height	number

FaceCameraPreset (enum)

Preset Type	Resolution
FaceCameraPreset.FACE_CAPTURE	640x480
FaceCameraPreset.CONTINUOUS_CAPTURE	640x480

FaceCameraLensDirection (enum)

Name
FaceCameraLensDirection.FRONT
FaceCameraLensDirection.BACK

FaceCaptureFormat (enum)

Name
FaceCaptureFormat.JPEG
FaceCaptureFormat.PNG

FaceCaptureButtonType (enum)

Name
FaceCaptureButtonType.CUSTOM
FaceCaptureButtonType.ICON

Using Custom Capture Button

const config = FaceConfigPreset.getConfig(FaceConfigType.FACE_CAPTURE)
  .setCaptureButtonType(FaceCaptureButtonType.CUSTOM)
  .setStylesCustomButtonBackgroundColor("#FFFF00")
  .setStylesCustomButtonTextColor("#FF00FF")
  .setStringsCustomButtonText("Capture");

Using Icon Capture Button

const config = FaceConfigPreset.getConfig(FaceConfigType.FACE_CAPTURE)
    .setCaptureButtonType(FaceCaptureButtonType.ICON)
    .setStylesCaptureButtonIcon("ic_baseline_camera")
    .setStylesCaptureButtonColor("#FF0000")
    .setStylesCaptureButtonSize({width: 76, height: 76});

How to instantiate and functionalities

To instantiate it's easy as to do one function call (as we have seen previously on the example). You only need to specify which type of config you want using a ENUM FaceConfigType. Every type however can have different features implemented, here are the supported types:

Config Type	Enum	feature
Face Capture	FaceConfigType.FACE_CAPTURE	Capture still image and detects face
Continuous Capture	FaceConfigType.CONTINUOUS_CAPTURE	Capture every frame per second

FaceEvent

On your Face callback function, you receive a FaceEvent.

FaceEvent

Name	Type
photo	Uint8Array
