The Webcam plugin for Uppy lets you take photos and record videos with a built-in camera on desktop and mobile devices.

Uppy is being developed by the folks at [Transloadit](https://transloadit.com), a versatile file encoding service.

## Example

```js
const Uppy = require('@uppy/core')
const Webcam = require('@uppy/webcam')

const uppy = Uppy()
uppy.use(Webcam, {
  mirror: true,
  facingMode: 'user'
})
```

## Installation

```bash
$ npm install @uppy/webcam --save
```

We recommend installing from npm and then using a module bundler such as [Webpack](http://webpack.github.io/), [Browserify](http://browserify.org/) or [Rollup.js](http://rollupjs.org/).

Alternatively, you can also use this plugin in a pre-built bundle from Transloadit's CDN: Edgly. In that case `Uppy` will attach itself to the global `window.Uppy` object. See the [main Uppy documentation](https://uppy.io/docs/#Installation) for instructions.

## Documentation

Documentation for this plugin can be found on the [Uppy website](https://uppy.io/docs/webcam).
