Example Usage

feature.module.ts

Import the plugin as defined below to allow the plugin to register correctly to the feature module.

import '@teamhive/capacitor-video-recorder';

Initializing Camera

In order to initialize the camera feed (note: you are not recording at this point), you must first specify a config to the video recorder.

Note: To overlay your web UI on-top of the camera output, you must use stackPosition: back and make all layers of your app transparent so that the camera can be seen under the webview.

import { VideoRecorderCamera, VideoRecorderPreviewFrame } from '@teamhive/capacitor-video-recorder';

const { VideoRecorder } = Plugins;

const config: VideoRecorderPreviewFrame = {
    id: 'video-record',
    stackPosition: 'front', // 'front' overlays your app', 'back' places behind your app.
    width: 'fill',
    height: 'fill',
    x: 0,
    y: 0,
    borderRadius: 0
};
await VideoRecorder.initialize({
    camera: VideoRecorderCamera.FRONT, // Can use BACK
    previewFrames: [config]
});

Recording

Starts recording against the capture device.

VideoRecorder.startRecording();

Stop Recording / Getting Result

Stops the capture device and returns the path of the local video file.

const res = await VideoRecorder.stopRecording();
// The video url is the local file path location of the video output.
return res.videoUrl;

Destroying Camera

Used to disconnect from the capture device and remove any native UI layers that exist.

VideoRecorder.destroy();
