Flip Local View Camera

[royherma]

Hi, how would i go about flipping/alternating between the front and rear facing camera on the local user when capturing video?

Thanks!

In the ARDAppClient there are 2 methods swapCameraToFront and swapCameraToBack methods.

In the sample app demo ARTCVideoChatViewController you could call [self.client swapCameraToFront] and [self.client swapCameraToBack].

I don't have those methods...and I am using the most recent version from the pod.These are the only methods exposed in the ARDAppClient header:

@interface ARDAppClient : NSObject

@property(nonatomic, readonly) ARDAppClientState state;
@property(nonatomic, weak) id<ARDAppClientDelegate> delegate;
@property(nonatomic, strong) NSString *serverHostUrl;

- (instancetype)initWithDelegate:(id<ARDAppClientDelegate>)delegate;

// Establishes a connection with the AppRTC servers for the given room id.
// TODO(tkchin): provide available keys/values for options. This will be used
// for call configurations such as overriding server choice, specifying codecs
// and so on.
- (void)connectToRoomWithId:(NSString *)roomId
                    options:(NSDictionary *)options;

// Disconnects from the AppRTC servers and any connected clients.
- (void)disconnect;

Did you check out https://github.com/ISBX/apprtc-ios/blob/master/Lib/ARDAppClient.h

I saw this from a past project, but any idea why its not the version being pulled from pod 'AppRTC' ? I'll try to see if i can specifically pull that version (if its available). How did you install it on your project, or did you just use the demo project?

weird..both of my projects (one with the more robust ARDAppClient and one without) seem to have version 1.0.2 of AppRTC. Any ideas? What happens if you create a new project and do pod 'AppRTC', do you see those methods in the file? @coolwr

Btw - thanks for the help :)
