[PabloPG]

After installing the plugin and trying to run on iOS, I get the following error:

I found the cause Error occurs when calling 'CGRectMake' and 'setNeedsLayout' for previewLayer. After commenting the code the error stopped occurring.

Same here...

I can share my code (modified plugin) You only need to connect it with your hands...

[triniwiz]

Please try updating your plugin and the runtime to the latest version

Had some pain here on nativescript 7.1.x, found that 4.1.0 was no good.

The solution for me (angular project) has been to use camera-plus@4.0.3 with the following: register-camera-plus.ts

import { registerElement } from '@nativescript/angular';
import { CameraPlus } from '@nstudio/nativescript-camera-plus';
import { CLog } from '@nstudio/nativescript-camera-plus/common';

/**
 * Registers camera plus with the workaround that makes it work
 * See https://github.com/nstudio/nativescript-plugins/issues/56
 *
 * Tested and working on 4.0.3 with iOS 15.x
 *
 * @todo once nativescript is at 8.x we should be able to get rid of this and just use camera-plus 4.1.0+
 */
export function registerCameraPlus() {
  try {
    /**
     * Attempt at fixing camera plus temporarily by stopping the bad stuff it does
     */
    class CameraPlusFixed extends CameraPlus {
      /**
       * The function that kicks out an error on 4.0.3 (compat with ns 7.x)
       * @param args Original function args
       */
      // eslint-disable-next-line @typescript-eslint/no-unused-vars
      _onLayoutChangeFn(args: any[]) {
        CLog('onLayoutChangeFn()');
        const size = this.getActualSize();
        CLog(`xml width/height: ${size.width}x${size.height}`);
        // @ts-ignore
        const { frame } = this._swifty.view;
        // @ts-ignore
        this._swifty.view.frame = CGRectMake(
          frame.origin.x,
          frame.origin.y,
          size.width,
          size.height,
        );
        // @ts-ignore
        this._swifty.view.setNeedsLayout();
      }
    }

    registerElement('CameraPlus', () => CameraPlusFixed);
  } catch (error) {
    CLog('Could not register CameraPlus', error);
  }
}

app.module.ts:

import { registerCameraPlus } from './register-camera-plus';

// ...

registerCameraPlus();

@NgModule(
  // ...
)
// ...

Thanks to @PabloChiste for the workaround details.
