📍Geolocation

If you're planning to use browser Geolocation API, make sure you've enabled the Geolocation feature for iOS (For Android, this feature is enabled by default)

🧋 Bubble.io Plugin

[Element] Natively - Location

Natively - Location element contains Foreground & Background location services:

📍 Foreground Location Tracking

Events:

Location received - User's location longitude & latitude values updated.
Location failed - called whenever Location service was not able to get user's location (check Latest location request status for more details)
Location Permission Received - called whenever Get location permission return a result
v2.13.4 - Location Background Service Status Received - called afrer Get background location service status

States:

Latest location longitude - Longitude as number
Latest location latitude - Latitude as number
Latest location response status - Status of the latest geolocation request call.
- SUCCESS - Got a location and desired accuracy level was achieved successfully.
- TIMEOUT - Got a location, but the desired accuracy level was not reached before timeout.
- FAILED - An error occurred while using the system location services.
Location permission
- IN_USE - foreground allowed
- ALWAYS - background allowed
- DENIED - not determined or denied
v2.13.4 -BG Location Is Running - yes/no (will be changed on Stop/Start Background Location or Get background location service status)

Actions:

Get current location
- minAccuracy [iOS] - Radius in meters. All other values will be filtered!
- accuractType [iOS] - Affects on location accuracy and battery life. BestForNavigation,Best,NearestTenMeters,HundredMeters,Kilometer,ThreeKilometers. More details here
- Priority [Android] - "BALANCED" (To save battery, recommended) & "HIGH"
Start foreground location service - start fetching device location
- minAccuracy [iOS] - Radius in meters. All other values will be filtered!
- accuractType [iOS] - Affects on location accuracy and battery life. BestForNavigation,Best,NearestTenMeters,HundredMeters,Kilometer,ThreeKilometers. More details here
- Priority [Android] - "BALANCED" (To save battery, recommended) & "HIGH"
- Fetching Interval - Determines how often the location will be fetched. Interval in milliseconds. 5000ms -> 5s
Stop foreground location service - stop fetching device location
Get location permission - request location permission status update
v2.13.4 -Get background location service status - check if BG Location Service already running

On page reload, the location live tracking service will be automatically stopped. You need to run the Start live location service action.

🚙 Background location tracking (BETA) - v2.1.0

Before using background geolocation, make sure you've enabled it in your Natively App Dashboard + Created a new build.

States:

Latest location response status - Status of the latest background location service start/stop.
- SUCCESS - Background location started/stopped successfully
- FAILED - Background location started/stopped with an error.

Events:

Location background failed - Whenever starting of background service will fail
Location background success - Whenever starting of background service will succeed

Actions:

Start background location service - start fetching device location
- minAccuracy [iOS] - Radius in meters. All other values will be filtered!
- accuractType [iOS] - Affects on location accuracy and battery life. BestForNavigation,Best,NearestTenMeters,HundredMeters,Kilometer,ThreeKilometers. More details here
- Priority [Android] - "BALANCED" (To save battery, recommended) & "HIGH"
- Fetching Interval - Determines how often the location will be fetched. Interval in milliseconds. 5000ms -> 5s
- Response Identifier - Identifier that will be sent with a user's location (We're recommending using the user's unique id)
Stop background location service - stop fetching device location

Background geolocation can be automatically stopped in such cases: If the user or system closes the app, or if the device receives more than 3 errors in response from your endpoint.

Unlike foreground location service, the background will not stop on page reload

Coordinates -> Marker address

To convert longitude and latitude to the bubble's geolocation, you need to use this formula:

🛠 JavaScript SDK

NativelyLocation

const locationService = new NativelyLocation()
const location_callback = function (resp) {
        console.log(resp.status); // "Success"/"Timeout"/"Error"
        console.log(resp.longitude); // 50.1231231
        console.log(resp.latitude); // 50.1231231
};
const minAccuracy = 50 // only available in 2.7.0 minAccuracy [iOS] - Radius in meters. All other values will be filtered!

const accuracyType = "Best" // only available in 2.7.0 accuractType [iOS] - Affects on location accuracy and battery life. BestForNavigation,Best,NearestTenMeters,HundredMeters,Kilometer,ThreeKilometers. More details here https://developer.apple.com/documentation/corelocation/cllocationaccuracy

const priority_android = "BALANCED" // "BALANCED" or "HIGH" [Android only]
const inerval = 10000 // in milliseconds 
// Foreground Location
locationService.current(minAccuracy, accuracyType, priority_android, location_callback);
locationService.start(interval, minAccuracy, accuracyType, priority_android, location_callback);
locationService.stop();

const location_bg_callback = function (resp) {
        console.log(resp.status); // "SUCCESS"/"FAILED" - Start of background service was successfully or failed
};
const location_status_bg_callback = function (resp) {
        console.log(resp.status); // true/false - BG Location Service running or not
};
// Background Location
const responseId = "my-user-id" // SHOULD BE A STRING! Identifer that you will receive together with coordinates to your webhook endpoint
locationService.startBackground(interval, minAccuracy, accuracyType, priority_android, responseId, location_bg_callback);
locationService.stopBackground(location_bg_callback);
locationService.statusBackground(location_status_bg_callback); // >=v2.12.3
