Taking Photos

To allow users to take photos using FDTake, perform the following steps:

  1. Step 1: Instantiate an instance of FDTake in your view controller:

    let fdTake = FDTakeController()

  2. Step 2: Present the FDTakeController modally when the user triggers the action to take a photo:

    fdTake.present(from: self, options: .cameraOnly)

  3. Step 3: Implement the FDTakeDelegate protocol in your view controller to handle the captured photo:

    class MyViewController: UIViewController, FDTakeDelegate {
  // ...
  func takeController(_ controller: FDTakeController, gotPhoto photo: UIImage, info: [String : Any]) {
    // Handle the captured photo here
  }
}

Examples

Here are a few examples demonstrating different use cases of FDTake:

Example 1: Simple Photo Capture

In this example, we demonstrate how to use FDTake to capture a photo from the device’s camera:

// Instantiate FDTakeController
let fdTake = FDTakeController()

// Present FDTakeController modally when the user triggers the action to capture a photo
fdTake.present(from: self, options: .cameraOnly)

// Implement delegate method to handle the captured photo
func takeController(_ controller: FDTakeController, gotPhoto photo: UIImage, info: [String : Any]) {
  // Handle the captured photo here
}

Example 2: Photo Selection from Gallery

In this example, we demonstrate how to use FDTake to allow users to select a photo from their device’s gallery:

// Instantiate FDTakeController
let fdTake = FDTakeController()

// Present FDTakeController modally when the user triggers the action to select a photo
fdTake.present(from: self, options: .photoLibraryOnly)

// Implement delegate method to handle the selected photo
func takeController(_ controller: FDTakeController, gotPhoto photo: UIImage, info: [String : Any]) {
  // Handle the selected photo here
}
