<script type="module" src='https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/input-file-from-webcam/dist/esm/input-file-from-webcam.js'></script>
<input-file-from-webcam id="my-input"></input-file-from-webcam>

How it works?

just add:

npm install https://github.com/alevilar/input-file-from-webcam

const elInputFileFromWebcam = document.getElementById("my-input");
    elInputFileFromWebcam.addEventListener("click", (ev) => {

    elInputFileFromWebcam.takePic().then( (pic) => console.info("here is your picture", pic))
});

Properties

width

defaults to 460px in canvas you must set always the width

height

defaults to 460px in canvas you must set always the height

facing-mode

we uses "user" or "environment" but you have others. If you don't write this property. the element will change facinbg Mode each time you click the element

For more FacingModel optiones you cant read here https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/MediaTrackConstraints/facingMode#value

callback for drawing on canvas

you can override the default behaviour by adding a callback function here. if you put something here. will execute this function for doing a canvas.drawImage

you must call ctx.drawImage(this.elVideo, left, top, imgSize, imgSize, 0,0, this.canvas.width, this.canvas.height) inside your function

we are just bypassing the callback function

let ctx = this.canvas.getContext('2d');
functionCallback.call(ctx, elVideo, left, top, imgSize, imgSize, 0,0, this.canvas.width, this.canvas.height);
```js
