I tried everything I could but could not get the camera to show up when using the webview. Any suggestions?

Seems like all device-related will never work in a webview. I end up built a separate modules in JS.

String permission = Manifest.permission.CAMERA; int grant = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, permission);

if (grant != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
    String[] permission_list = new String[1];
    permission_list[0] = permission;
    ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, permission_list, 1);
} 

webView.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient() {

            @TargetApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP)
            @Override
            public void onPermissionRequest(final PermissionRequest request) {
                request.grant(request.getResources());
            }
}
