Platform

orientation

orientation: Orientation

Display orientation of the photo, relative to the Camera's sensor orientation.

Note that Camera sensors are landscape, so e.g. "portrait" photos will have a value of "landscape-left", etc.

path

path: string

The path of the file.

  • Note: If you want to consume this file (e.g. for displaying it in an <Image> component), you might have to add the file:// prefix.

  • Note: This file might get deleted once the app closes because it lives in the temp directory.

Optional thumbnail

thumbnail?: Record<string, unknown>

width

width: number

The width of the photo, in pixels.
