Replace camera implementation with something more standard and less limited.

[ara4n]

Doesn't handle rotation metadata, doesn't let me zoom or focus etc, doesn't let me take photos by pressing volume buttons. We need to ditch it in favour of the native controls or use a camera library of some kind

[ara4n]

rotation meta fails if the phone is rotationlocked (unlike the native camera control)

[ara4n]

We really should ditch our custom camera control in favour of something which plays well with the latest features and hardware, especially with the iPhone X round the corner.

Cool, I'm on it. @ara4n anything I should know?

I know my way around swift and git flow, but new to the crypto world and status.

[GreyEcologist]

@ara4n @giomfo I branched off develop locally, but can't push my branch onto remote to create a Pull Request. I think you might have to add me to your organization so I can push my changes and create a PR.

Let me know how you want to proceed.

[giomfo]

Hi @GreyEcologist, you have to fork riot-ios in your account.

see https://github.com/vector-im/riot-ios/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.rst for more details

Is a Swift implementation of this bounty considered acceptable?

[hrishinext]

Is this bounty over?

[giomfo]

@oriyentel no, I regret a Swift implementation is not acceptable here. We don't want to mix the codebase.

[ianscott313]

I have created a native camera much like snapchats in obj-c for Jumpvue. I can do this for you guys

[ianscott313]

@giomfo I submitted a PR for this but I do not know how to assign reviewers. I do not have a drop down by the reviewers or assignees sidebar. Are we suppose to assign these to you or do you just pick them up?

[ianscott313]

Hi @giomfo, I submitted a PR for this a couple weeks ago. Could I get some feedback on it please?

[knocte]

ping

[giomfo]

Hi @knocte: we are waiting for @ianscott313 's feedbacks

[ianscott313]

Hey guys sorry i haven't wrapped this up yet

[debragail]

Status on the last PR and this bounty?

[giomfo]

Hi @debragail the bounty is still available.
Feel free to submit a PR (The existing one has never been updated according to the requested changes).

About the requirement you are free to kill our custom camera implementation or at least provide the normal one as an option.

A Swift implementation is now acceptable.
