Vue Cam

Intented to be a simple camera component for VueJS.

Vue Cam allows you to preview the camera stream at the size you need and to make snapshots of it, conserving the same size and ratio as what you see (WYSIWYG).

Installation

NPM

npm install vue-cam

Yarn

yarn add vue-cam

Usage

Just import vue-cam in your main.js file, the component will be automatically loaded in the global scope.

...
import 'vue-cam'
...

Then put the vc-cam component wherever you need

<vc-cam></vc-cam>

You can make snapshots using the snapshot method of the component. The method will return a base64 string.

First, give a reference to the component

<vc-cam ref="camera"></vc-cam>

Then where you need it

let snapBase64 = this.$refs.camera.snapshot()
