Also add following repo in project root build.gradle:

allprojects {
    repositories {
        maven {
            url "https://innov8tif-okaycam.firebaseapp.com"
            content {
                includeGroup "com.innov8tif.xendity"
            }
        }
    }
}

License Key

The license key is a string which you need to request from Innov8tif. In the following usage example, we put as LICENSE_KEY but you can use whatever variable name you want.

Starting Camera

Camera can be launched by invoking start method on OkayCamDoc with context,config and callback method as follow
config object is optional if you call from Kotlin (refer to Configuration for more info)
after the image is captured or the user cancel, the callback method will be called (refer result)

OkayCamDoc.start(this,LICENSE_KEY, config) { success, images, exception ->
    // do something with the result
}

iOS Installation Guide

In iOS, OkayCam is available through the CocoaPods. The first step of the installation for OkayCam in iOS is to simply add the following line of code to your Podfiles as shown below:

Note: Please make sure the SDK version tally with the provided license key.

  use_frameworks!
  pod 'OkayCam'

  post_install do |installer|
    installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
      if target.name == "CryptoSwift"
        puts "Enable module stability for CryptoSwift"
        target.build_configurations.each do |config|
            config.build_settings['BUILD_LIBRARY_FOR_DISTRIBUTION'] = 'YES'
        end
      end
    end

After adding the code above to the Podfiles:

Run the command pod install to install the dependency
Add NSCameraUsageDescription to the info.plist in order to gain camera permissions

For iOS versions, we are actively published to Cocoapods. User can keep track of the version using the site. However, in the site, user will need to type in "OkayCam" in the search bar to view the latest version.

Version 3:

$ yarn add [email protected]   - For version 3

Version 1:

 react-native install [email protected]

For Android in React-Native:

Navigate to android folder
Add following snippet in the root build.gradle file:

allprojects {
    repositories {
        maven {
            url "https://innov8tif-okaycam.firebaseapp.com"
            content {
                includeGroup "com.innov8tif.xendity"
            }
        }
    }
}

Sync Gradle

For iOS in React-native:

Navigate to iOS folder
Add the following code to Podfile

platform :ios, '15.0'
use_frameworks!

post_install do |installer|
    installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
    	if target.name == "CryptoSwift"
        	puts "Enable module stability for CryptoSwift"
        	target.build_configurations.each do |config|
            	config.build_settings['BUILD_LIBRARY_FOR_DISTRIBUTION'] = 'YES'
        	end
      	end
      	if (target.name&.eql?('FBReactNativeSpec'))
        	target.build_phases.each do |build_phase|
          		if (build_phase.respond_to?(:name) && build_phase.name.eql?('[CP-User] Generate Specs'))
        	    	target.build_phases.move(build_phase, 0)
          		end
        	end
      	end
      	target.build_configurations.each do |config|
        	config.build_settings["EXCLUDED_ARCHS[sdk=iphonesimulator*]"] = "arm64"
        	config.build_settings["ONLY_ACTIVE_ARCH"] = "NO"
      	end
    end
end

After adding the code above to the Podfiles:

Run the command pod install to install the dependency
Add "NSCameraUsageDescription" to the info.plist in order to gain camera permissions

For React-Native versions, we are actively published to npm. User can keep track of the version using the site.

Issues

Android:

There will be a duplicate class "org.hamcrest.xxx"

If the above error is encountered, it can be solved by excluding the "junit" module below:

configurations { compile.exclude group: "junit", module: "junit" }

iOS:

There will be several issues stated in the quote below:

Undefined symbol: _swift_FORCE_LOAD$_swiftUniformTypeIdentifiers
Undefined symbol: _swift_FORCE_LOAD$_swiftCoreMIDI

If users encountered the errors above, it can be solved by creating a new swift file called Void.swift without adding a bridging header.

License

After that, a license key is required for both Android and iOS by adding the code below:

const license = Platform.select({
    android: "",
    ios: ""
})

Please be aware of the codes and commands above are case sensitive.
