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 aCameraView of any size (not just presets!).
  • Automatic output cropping to match yourCameraView bounds.
• Multiple capture methods.
  • METHOD_STANDARD: an image captured normally using the camera APIs.
  • METHOD_STILL: a freeze frame of theCameraView preview (similar to SnapChat and Instagram) for devices with slower cameras.
  • METHOD_SPEED: automatic capture method determination based on measured speed.
• Built-in continuous focus.
• Built-in tap to focus.
• Built-in pinch to zoom.

AddCameraKit to the dependencies block in yourapp levelbuild.gradle:

compile'com.wonderkiln:camerakit:0.13.1'

To use CameraKit, simply add aCameraView to your layout:

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

Make sure you overrideonResume andonPause in your activity, and make calls respectively toCameraView.start() andCameraView.stop().

@OverrideprotectedvoidonResume() {super.onResume();cameraView.start();}@OverrideprotectedvoidonPause() {cameraView.stop();super.onPause();}

Starting in version 0.13.0 you need to add the following options to your Proguard rules:

-dontwarn com.google.android.gms.**
