Java native bindings for libgphoto2. For details, please see http://angryelectron.com/projects/libgphoto2-jna. This is a simple, basic library that by no means implements all of libgphoto2 features.
To build this library you will need git, the Java 7 SDK, JNA, and Apache Ant:
git clone https://github.com/angryelectron/libgphoto2-jna.git
cd libgphoto2-jna
ant
ant test # optional - attach camera first
Alternatively, you can open and build the library using the Netbeans IDE or downlod a binary release.
Build and add libgphoto2-jna.jar to your project. Also ensure that libgphoto2 is installed and that libgphoto2.so is on the library path (you may need to create a symbolic link from your specific version). See the test classes and/or javadocs for details.
Simplified example showing how to take a picture:
GPhoto2 camera = new GPhoto2();
camera.open();
camera.capture(); // image remains on camera
File image = camera.captureAndDownload(); // image saved to disk
camera.close();
To get/set simple configuration parameters:
GPhoto2 camera = new GPhoto2();
camera.open();
camera.setConfig("isoauto", "On");
String value = camera.getConfig("isoauto");
To get/set more complex configurations:
GPhoto2 camera = new GPhoto2();
camera.open();
GPhoto2Config config = new GPhoto2Config(camera);
config.readConfig();
config.setParameter("burstnumber", "5");
config.setParameter("capturetarget", "Memory card");
config.writeConfig();
camera.close();
Any parameter than can be set or read using the gphoto2 command line can be configured in this way.
