Hi!

I am trying to take a photo using Camera plugin. But when I click a button to take the photo nothing happens. I tried to debug on device and nothing happens.

I am working with Android.

My HTML code is:

<ion-content>
  <div class="center-item">
    <ion-button color="light" shape="round" click="takePhoto()">
      {{ 'tab2.takePhotoButton' | translate }}
    </ion-button>
    <img [src]="imageUrl"/>
  </div>
</ion-content>

My ts code is:

/**
   * Camera options.
   */
  private options: CameraOptions = {
    quality: 100,
    destinationType: this.camera.DestinationType.DATA_URL,
    encodingType: this.camera.EncodingType.JPEG,
    mediaType: this.camera.MediaType.PICTURE
  }

  private imageUrl:string;

  constructor(private camera: Camera) {}

  takePhoto() {
    this.camera.getPicture(this.options).then((imageData) => {
      console.log("hola");
      // imageData is either a base64 encoded string or a file URI
      // If it's base64 (DATA_URL):
      let base64Image = 'data:image/jpeg;base64,' + imageData;
      this.imageUrl = base64Image;
      console.log(this.imageUrl);
    }, (err) => {
     // Handle error
    });
  }

Can anyone help me?
