WebRTC with Agora.io: SwitchCamera?

I'm building a web app using Agora.io. I'd like to be able to switch from the front-facing to the rear-facing camera on a client's smartphone. I've seen agora docs for switchCamera. I've tried the following:

switchCamera();
myAgoraClient.switchCamera();
localStream.switchCamera();

All of them throw a no such function error.

What is the correct way to switch the camera in agora.io for web?

Solution

  • You can do this with switchDevice method in 2.5 SDK

    switchDevice(type: string, deviceId: string, onSuccess: function, onFailure: function): void

    For example;

    localStream.switchDevice("video", "<deviceid>", console.log,console.log)

    Should do the work. I was trying same thing but examples contains old 2.4 js sdk, you need to specifically download ^2.5
