             Summary: ER: API to query if device has a camera
                 Key: CB-753
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-753
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: New Feature
    Affects Versions: 1.7.0
            Reporter: Jean-Pierre


Cordova does not offer any API to query the device for its capabilities, so one 
cannot know if it has a camera with which to take a picture without attempting 
to take a picture, falling through the error handler and then hard-match the 
error code -- a pretty poor user experience. i have seen some suggestion to 
check device.camera, but a device may still have a library to pull an image 
from while not having a camera, so that isn't likely helpful. there isn't even 
any way to find the specific hardware revision to match off that.
