# Deprecated
CameraView is deprecated. No more development will be taking place.
Use [Jetpack CameraX](https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/camerax) instead.
# CameraView
This is not an official Google product.
CameraView aims to help Android developers easily integrate Camera features.
Requires API Level 9. The library uses Camera 1 API on API Level 9-20 and Camera2 on 21 and above.
| API Level | Camera API | Preview View |
|:---------:|------------|--------------|
| 9-13 | Camera1 | SurfaceView |
| 14-20 | Camera1 | TextureView |
| 21-23 | Camera2 | TextureView |
| 24 | Camera2 | SurfaceView |
## Features
- Camera preview by placing it in a layout XML (and calling the start method)
- Configuration by attributes
- Aspect ratio (app:aspectRatio)
- Auto-focus (app:autoFocus)
- Flash (app:flash)
## Usage
```xml
```
```java
@Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
mCameraView.start();
}
@Override
protected void onPause() {
mCameraView.stop();
super.onPause();
}
```
You can see a complete usage in the demo app.
