Android Open Camera from Button

Android open camera from button

To call the camera you can use:

Intent intent = new Intent("android.media.action.IMAGE_CAPTURE");
startActivity(intent);

The image will be automatically saved in a default directory.

And you need to set the permission for the camera in your AndroidManifest.xml:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA"> </uses-permission>

How to open camera app in android

You can open camera app with intent

Intent cameraIntent = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
startActivityForResult(cameraIntent, CAMERA_PIC_REQUEST);

Now get the image back once you are done with camera app

protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    if (requestCode == CAMERA_PIC_REQUEST) {
          Bitmap image = (Bitmap) data.getExtras().get("data");
          // do whatever you want with the image now
    }
}

Hope this would help.

Open camera directly in the Activity without clicking on button and without intent?

I found my error. I called mCamera.setPreview() in the onSurfaceCreated() method of my CameraPreview class.

I need to call mCamera.setPreview() in the onSurfaceChanged() ! Now it works

Problem solved !

How to open camera , or call startActivityForResult from a button in recycleriew item

Try this code :

Call following method inside your if(view.getId() == act_photo.getId()){ HERE }

public void OpenCamera(){
 Intent intent = new Intent("android.media.action.IMAGE_CAPTURE");
            view.getContext().startActivity(intent);
}

don't forget to add permission to your AndroidManifest.xml file :

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA"/>

Additionally for Marshmallow onwards you need to handle Runtime permission.
I hope this will help.

</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>

Capture Image from Camera and Display in Activity

Here's an example activity that will launch the camera app and then retrieve the image and display it.

package edu.gvsu.cis.masl.camerademo;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.graphics.Bitmap;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.ImageView;

public class MyCameraActivity extends Activity
{
    private static final int CAMERA_REQUEST = 1888; 
    private ImageView imageView;
    private static final int MY_CAMERA_PERMISSION_CODE = 100;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
    {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
        this.imageView = (ImageView)this.findViewById(R.id.imageView1);
        Button photoButton = (Button) this.findViewById(R.id.button1);
        photoButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener()
        {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v)
            {
                if (checkSelfPermission(Manifest.permission.CAMERA) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED)
                {
                    requestPermissions(new String[]{Manifest.permission.CAMERA}, MY_CAMERA_PERMISSION_CODE);
                }
                else
                {
                    Intent cameraIntent = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE); 
                    startActivityForResult(cameraIntent, CAMERA_REQUEST);
                } 
            }
        });
    }

    @Override
    public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, @NonNull String[] permissions, @NonNull int[] grantResults)
    {
        super.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);
        if (requestCode == MY_CAMERA_PERMISSION_CODE)
        {
            if (grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED)
            {
                Toast.makeText(this, "camera permission granted", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                Intent cameraIntent = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE); 
                startActivityForResult(cameraIntent, CAMERA_REQUEST);
            }
            else
            {
                Toast.makeText(this, "camera permission denied", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
            }
        }
    }

    @Override
    protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data)
    {  
        if (requestCode == CAMERA_REQUEST && resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK)
        {  
            Bitmap photo = (Bitmap) data.getExtras().get("data"); 
            imageView.setImageBitmap(photo);
        }  
    } 
}

Note that the camera app itself gives you the ability to review/retake the image, and once an image is accepted, the activity displays it.

Here is the layout that the above activity uses. It is simply a LinearLayout containing a Button with id button1 and an ImageView with id imageview1:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    >
    <Button android:id="@+id/button1" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="@string/photo"></Button>
    <ImageView android:id="@+id/imageView1" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:src="@drawable/icon" android:layout_width="wrap_content"></ImageView>

</LinearLayout>

And one final detail, be sure to add:

<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.camera"></uses-feature> 

and if camera is optional to your app functionality. make sure to set require to false in the permission. like this

<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.camera" android:required="false"></uses-feature>

to your manifest.xml.
