I am working with ionic 3 location-based work. I am not able to get current location of latitude and longitude here. I mentioned my usable code. It's working fine in browser level but not working in a mobile device.
code
$ ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-geolocation --variable GEOLOCATION_USAGE_DESCRIPTION="To locate you"
$ npm install --save @ionic-native/geolocation
import { Geolocation } from '@ionic-native/geolocation';
constructor(private geolocation: Geolocation) {}
this.geolocation.getCurrentPosition().then((resp) => {
console.log( resp.coords.latitude)
console.log( resp.coords.longitude)
}).catch((error) => {
console.log('Error getting location', error);
});
Try this:
import { Geolocation } from '@ionic-native/geolocation';
import { Platform } from 'ionic-angular';
//Set the properties in this class
long: any; //longitude
lati: any; //latitude
constructor(private platform: Platform, private geolocation: Geolocation) {
this.platform.ready().then(()=>{
//set options..
var options = {
timeout: 20000 //sorry I use this much milliseconds
}
//use the geolocation
this.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(options).then(data=>{
this.long = data.coords.longitude;
this.lati = data.coords.latitude;
}).catch((err)=>{
console.log("Error", err);
});
});
}
Let this be in the constructor. Don't forget to agree to the location privacy permission, also enable location option on your Android device(this is probable though).
Try to call the geolocation function inside ionViewDidLoad() or ngAfterViewInit() method.
import { Geolocation } from '@ionic-native/geolocation';
constructor(private geolocation: Geolocation) {}
ngAfterViewInit(){
this.geolocation.getCurrentPosition().then((resp) => {
console.log( resp.coords.latitude)
console.log( resp.coords.longitude)
}).catch((error) => {
console.log('Error getting location', error);
});
}
I hope this will solve your problem!
import { Geolocation } from '@ionic-native/geolocation';
import { Platform } from 'ionic-angular';
//Set the properties in this class
long: any; //longitude
lati: any; //latitude
constructor(private platform: Platform, private geolocation: Geolocation) {
this.platform.ready().then(()=>{
//set options..
var options = {
enableHighAccuracy: true, timeout: 60000, maximumAge: 0
};
//use the geolocation
this.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(options).then(data=>{
this.long = data.coords.longitude;
this.lati = data.coords.latitude;
}).catch((err)=>{
console.log("Error", err);
});
let watch = this.geolocation.watchPosition(options);
watch.subscribe((data) => {
let lat_lng = data.coords.latitude+","+data.coords.longitude;
});
});
}
