@georapbox/capture-photo-element - npm Package Versions

v5.0.0 (2024-10-16)

Breaking Changes

• Change default value of facingMode property from "user" to "environment", to be as much consistent as possible with the default camera facing mode of most mobile devices.
• Remove the facing-mode-button slot and button to toggle the camera facing mode in favor of consistence with other camera properties thad don't have a dedicated button, such as camera-resolution, torch, pan, tilt and zoom.
• Changing the facingMode and cameraResolution, properties or equivalent attributes after the video stream has started will not have any effect. You need to restart the video stream with the new properties. This is to avoid unnecessary camera hardware operations.

Other Changes

• Add static method getVideoInputDevices() to get the list of available video input devices.
• Support passing a deviceInputId as argument to the startVideoStream() method to start the video stream with a specific video input device.
• Add instance method restartVideoStream() to restart the video stream with the current properties.

• Use Prettier for code formatting.
• Update dev dependencies.

v4.0.1 (2023-12-27)

v4.0.0 (2023-12-27)

Breaking Changes

v3.0.0 (2022-11-25)

Breaking Changes

• Remove the following events: capture-photo:facing-mode-change, capture-photo:camera-resolution-change and capture-photo:zoom-change. The reason for removing them is because they would be emitted every time a relevant property/attribute would change but there was no guarantee that the value updated, was supported by the camera hardware.

Other Changes

• Add pan and tilt properties to support panning and tilting respectively if supported by the camera harware.
• Add public methods getSupportedConstraints(), getTrackCapabilities() and getTrackSettings().
