How to set Static Properties such as defaultCamera on Angular apps?

[leocaseiro]

Hi guys from nstudio. I'm trying to set the defaultCamera to 'front', but it doesn't work for me.

I've tried setting on the html, like so and nothing changes:

Attempt 1:

<CameraPlus defaultCamera="front"></CameraPlus>

Attempt 2:

class CaptureComponent {
    defaultCamera: string = 'front';
    // ...
}

<CameraPlus [defaultCamera]="defaultCamera"></CameraPlus>

---

Is there another way of doing that? Should I set while registering the Element, how to do so?

PS: For the time being, I've edited the source file, but I would like to set properly avoiding bugs while updating from npm.

node_modules/@nstudio/nativescript-camera-plus/camera-plus.common.js:63

Thanks

Your second approach should work, it's possible there is some timing work that can be improved/fixed here. Can you send over a zip of project to test with?

Have you been able to solve this?

Simple, use this method:

getCurrentCamera()

Attempt 1 should work as well, no? (Both 1 & 2 are not working for me as well)

using this.cam.toggleCamera() on camloaded()

Late to the party but for me it had to be done quite early in my code, it's for VueJS but still, I set the value for that static field before attempting to using the component

let CamPlusFront = require('@nstudio/nativescript-camera-plus').CameraPlus; CamPlusFront.defaultCamera = "front"; Vue.registerElement('CameraPlus', () => CamPlusFront);

this.cam.toggleCamera() just works fine temporarily but as I minimize app and come back its gone to rear OR default camera.

`import { CameraPlus } from '@nstudio/nativescript-camera-plus';

CameraPlus.defaultCamera = 'front'`

Do this while import and it would work..!!
