How to continue to use the camera functionality without the SAP Fiori Client?

[julian-s]

Hello everyone,

In a recent note from SAP, we heard that the SAP Fiori Client will be discontinued and we shall use native browser on the mobile clients. This is actually fine, since many functionalities can be retrieved with web technologies directly.

But at least one thing will be missing with that. How can we use a camera then in our apps, without writing a whole new library / component for that. Are there any plans or already good third-party solutions to integrate? Also the barcode scanner will be completly missing.

For a customer, we are still using the navigator.camera.getPicture() function, which absolutely still works fine.

Are there any inputs for this problem?

Hi,

For barcode scanner the below code is working in browser. You can check and tell if its working for you:

sap.ndc.BarcodeScanner.scan( function(mResult) {

console.log(mResult.text);

});

Hello

That didn't work in the browser. Only with the fiori client.
