Open the front camera(kotlin)

I have the following code which opens the rear camera in SurfaceView when the activity is opened. Now I want to know how to change this code to open the front camera instead of the rear camera and I have given access to the front camera in the manifest.

And I don't want to go to camera using Intent

Thankful

    class mirrorActivity : AppCompatActivity(), SurfaceHolder.Callback {
       private lateinit var binding: ActivityMirrorBinding

You can use Camera.CameraInfo.CAMERA_FACING_FRONT for the front camera and Camera.CameraInfo.CAMERA_FACING_BACK for the back camera, you can use them in your code the following :

private int currentCameraId = Camera.CameraInfo.CAMERA_FACING_FRONT;

or

private int currentCameraId = Camera.CameraInfo.CAMERA_FACING_BACK;

And set it like this :

Camera.open(currentCameraId)

Also, put the whole camera code in the onResume() method
