Launching Camera App Using Javascript in android

Question

Is it possible to launch the camera app via Android JSInterface?Currently I can access the test() via javascript from the android code.I want to launch the camera app via javascript by using JSInterface.

jQuery:

  $(function() {
      FastClick.attach(document.body);
      $('.btn-primary-panel').click(function(){
        alert(android.test());// WebViewFragment.Java->JsInterface->getPhoneNumber
      });
  });

Android Code:

  public class JsInterface{
      public String test()
      {
          // Here call any of the public activity methods....
          return "WebViewFragment.Java->JsInterface->getPhoneNumber";
      }
  }

Answer 1

Maybe try this:

public class JsInterface{
      public void launchCamera()
      {
          Intent intent = new Intent("android.media.action.IMAGE_CAPTURE");
          startActivityForResult(intent, 0); 
      }
}

And don't forget the permissions:

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

And then just use

android.launchCamera() from JS.
