# Kanvas
[](https://buildkite.com/automattic/kanvas-ios)
[](https://cocoapods.org/pods/Kanvas)
Kanvas is an [open-source](https://github.com/tumblr/kanvas-ios/blob/main/LICENSE) iOS library for adding effects, drawings, text, stickers, and making GIFs from existing media or the camera.
It is used in the [Tumblr iOS app](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/tumblr/id305343404) as a camera, media editor, GIF maker, and media posting tool.
## Setup
Add this to your `Podfile`:
```ruby
pod 'Kanvas', :git => 'https://github.com/tumblr/kanvas-ios.git'
```
And run:
```bash
pod install
```
## Usage
Kanvas is mainly two parts: [the Camera](https://github.com/tumblr/kanvas-ios/blob/main/Classes/Camera/CameraController.swift), and [the Editor](https://github.com/tumblr/kanvas-ios/blob/main/Classes/Editor/EditorViewController.swift). Both are just view controllers that you present, and have settings and delegates that help you customize their behavior.
To show the camera:
```swift
let settings = CameraSettings()
let camera = CameraController(settings: settings)
present(camera, animated: true)
```
And to edit existing media, like a video:
```swift
let videoURL = URL(string: "path/to/video.mov")
let settings = CameraSettings()
let editor = EditorViewController.createEditor(for: videoURL, settings: settings)
present(editor, animated: true)
```
Each view controller accepts a [`CameraSettings`](https://github.com/tumblr/kanvas-ios/blob/main/Classes/Settings/CameraSettings.swift) object, which provides fine-grained settings and feature togges. Each view controller also has a `delegate` property for providing your own handlers to creating media, performing editing operations, logging, or really anything else Kanvas can do.
Documentation is lacking at the moment, but contributions are welcome!
