Stage 1: Definition
1. Feature overview
This is a request for the functionality to take a picture from a computer's attached camera and use it in a web application.
2. Users & use cases
- Take a picture on flickr, or upload from your gallery.
- Take a profile photo on facebook, or upload from your gallery.
- Instagram for the web.
3. Dependencies
- Requires an underlying implementation for capturing from camera devices. (done - anant has volunteered!)
4. Requirements
For mobile we should use an external app for performance reasons.
For desktop we should be able to take an image snapshot.
Non-goals
- This does not include the ability to capture a video and send that video somewhere. This is only for taking a picture.
- Previewing the image in a canvas with the ability to modify it before uploading it to a server won't be possible with this implementation.
Stage 2: Design
5. Functional specification
`
6. User experience design
First iteration design specification
Stage 3: Planning
7. Implementation plan
Main bug:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=692955
Currently waiting on three things to happen:
- Implementation of the Chrome UI (fabrice)
- Implementation of the in-page UI (mounir or dholbert)
- WebRTC integration and landing (jesup et al):
- Fixing of the Windows build issues (ted)
- Build servers will need to be updated to include additional Win32 SDK files (release eng)
- Pruning code base for image capture (as needed) (jesup)
- Update to live in shared lib with other media modules (jesup and/or ted)
- Legal review (under way, no problems expected)
- Security review of code paths needed for image capture (jesup, curtis)
- Picking a 'stable point' in WebRTC upstream to use as the mergepoint (jesup)
The drop used for upcoming Chrome integration would probably be a good choice. - Landing review of the capture code from webrtc (jesup)
- Post-landing testing and debugging (jesup, fabrice, qa, etc)
- Fixing of the Windows build issues (ted)
Ignore stuff below this line, here for history only.
Android support landed: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=659188 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=621915
Work is going on in this bug:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=692955
We will use the GIPS code for this feature on desktop.
