  • Camera & Video Capture in a SwiftUI project
    1 project | /r/SwiftUI | 22 Apr 2023
    Unfortunately SwiftUI doesn’t fully support the use of the camera without doing some interop with UIKit. That being said it’s really not too hard and can be adapted from existing examples out there. Just found this one of the Snapchat camera. As for saving a file, take a look at some of the AV capture delegate protocols. They give you functions that let you know when a user has started and ended their capture session and even returns a file url of the output (in some cases you can make it a binary stream so you can save it to wherever you need). Depending on what your app is trying to achieve, you can take the photo and upload it to a backend or save it locally in the file system
