@capawesome/capacitor-photo-editor¶

Capacitor plugin that allows the user to edit a photo.

Installation¶

npm install @capawesome/capacitor-photo-editor
npx cap sync

Android¶

You need to specify the directories that contain the photos you want to edit. To specify the directories, start by creating the file file_paths.xml in the res/xml/ subdirectory of your project (see Android docs).
This is an example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<paths xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <files-path name="files" path="." />
    <cache-path name="cache" path="." />
    <external-files-path name="external-files" path="." />
    <external-cache-path name="external-cache" path="." />
    <external-path name="external" path="." />
</paths>

Configuration¶

No configuration required for this plugin.

editPhoto(...)¶

editPhoto(options: EditPhotoOptions) => Promise<void>
