Delay in getting location

[ReemaBegum]

When background geolocation is called taking more time to fetch location service . Any suggesstion on this will help me lot ?

Your Environment

• Plugin version:2.8.2
• Platform: iOS and Android
• Cordova platform version (cordova platform ls):6.1.1
• Plugin config

[christocracy]

I have no idea what this means. Show me what you mean with logs.

[ReemaBegum]

When I hit background geolocation plugin not getting response soon taking long time Here is my code var bgGeo = window.BackgroundGeolocation; // BackgroundGeolocation is highly configurable. See platform specific configuration options bgGeo.configure(callbackFn, failureFn, { desiredAccuracy: 0, stationaryRadius: 0, distanceFilter: 0, useSignificantChangesOnly: false, debug: false, stopOnTerminate: true, startOnBoot: false, stopTimeout: 1, stopDetectionDelay:0 }); // Turn ON the background-geolocation system. The user will be tracked whenever they suspend the app. bgGeo.start(); function callbackFn(location) { var coords = location.coords; var lat = coords.latitude; var lng = coords.longitude; } CallbackFn is not executing

And show me logs

[ReemaBegum]

Can you suggest me how to get log ?

Actual behavior

1. When I click on button to get location some times taking time to load success call back ?

Expected behavior

1. Need to get location if device is in both stationary and moving state

   Steps to Reproduce

   Below is my code bgGeo.configure(callbackFn, failureFn, { desiredAccuracy: 0, stationaryRadius: 0, distanceFilter: 0, useSignificantChangesOnly: false, debug: false, stopOnTerminate: true, startOnBoot: false, stopTimeout: 1, stopDetectionDelay:0 });

[christocracy]

And what is your code doing when you "click on this button"?

[christocracy]

• And why are you using debug: false? Don't you think that might be important during development?
• Why are you not configuring logLevel as well? Don't you want as much logging from the plugin as possible during development?

[ReemaBegum]

I don't need to display any notification and sounds so set debug :false . Suggest me why it is taking time to get location when device is stationary state

[ReemaBegum]

On click of a button I need to get address by using latitude and longitude by making use of background geolocation am getting lat and long

[christocracy]

Because the plugin samples multiple locations to find the most accurate possible. This can take some seconds. With debug: true, you will hear these samples as the dial-tone sound.

Assuming you're using #getCurrentPosition (I don't know, since you didn't show me your code), you might be interested in the samples config option.

Here's the logs from executing #getCurrentPosition: Multiple locations are fetched.

On click of a button I need to get address by using latitude and longitude by making use of background geolocation am getting lat and long

I'm not concerned with what you need to do with the location. I want to see your code.

[christocracy]

And yes, if you execute #getCurrentPosition while indoors, it will take longer to fetch the location since GPS isn't available indoors. If the plugin fetches a high accuracy location (eg: <= 10 meters), it will immediately stop sampling and return that location immediately.

[ReemaBegum]

Right now am using this here is my code . Do I need to do any changes in configure options ? bgGeo.configure(callbackFn, failureFn, { desiredAccuracy: 0, stationaryRadius: 0, distanceFilter: 0, useSignificantChangesOnly: true, debug: false, stopOnTerminate: true, startOnBoot: false, stopTimeout: 1, stopDetectionDelay:0 } ) function callbackFn(location) { var coords = location.coords; var lat = coords.latitude; var lng = coords.longitude; }

[christocracy]

Please learn to format code. Right below the textarea i'm writing in is a link Styling with Markdown is supported.

Wrap code with 3-backticks

[christocracy]

Just edit your previous post.

[ReemaBegum]

When I open application in android it showing "License validation failure background geolocation running in evaluation mode " . We have purchased the license for this do I need to do any changes in config file ?

[ReemaBegum]

As you suggested to use #getCurrentPosition is there any parameter to specify time limit ?

[christocracy]

This issue is related to "Delay in getting Location".

Customers shouldn't use this public repo (it contains only latest stable release. Customers are granted access to a private repo for latest updates.

[christocracy]

Are you reading the docs for #getCurrentPosition?

[ReemaBegum]

Yes, we are using private repo

[christocracy]

Then why are you posting issues to the public repo?
