Background Only Geofences in 1.8 #102

Open ShawnPavel opened 6 years ago

ShawnPavel commented 6 years ago

Your Environment

Actual Behavior

When I call BackgroundGeolocation.startGeofences in the android activitiyStoppedEvent the app crashes

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Subscribe to the activity stopped event 
        app.android.on(app.AndroidApplication.activityStoppedEvent, (args: any) => {
        startGeofences();
    });
  2. Start Geofence monitoring in the event

Context

I am attempting to only monitor geofences while the app is closed or in the background. I start the geofences when the app enters background. And also in the activity created event so that it starts when android restarts the app in the background. This worked fine before I updated the plugin to 1.8 and nativescript to ^3.4.

1.9.0-beta.3 released. Be sure to do this

ShawnPavel commented 5 years ago

@christocracy I finally got time to test out updating the app to 1.9.0-beta.4. The good news is it no longer crashes! Unfortunately, I no longer get geofence events sent to my http endpoint in the background as I did before.

Is there anything special that changed with the newest version when setting up geofences to get it to send the http post like before?

I tested it out by starting at one geofence location, walking to another, waiting for a few minutes, and then walking back to the first.

Here's the emailLog info.

There are no geofences firing in your logs. You will not get a geofence event sent to your end-point if no geofence events occur.

ShawnPavel commented 5 years ago

I did not change anything in my configuration, or implementation other than updating the plugin.

Is there anything special that changed with the newest version when setting up geofences to get it to send the http post like before?

I tested it out by starting at one geofence location, walking to another, waiting for a few minutes, and then walking back to the first.

christocracy commented 5 years ago

It has nothing to do with HTTP. The geofences are not firing.

You can see in the logs that the geofences are being created and monitored. They are not firing.

ShawnPavel commented 5 years ago

I understand it has nothing to do with HTTP. I should have rephrased that when I asked it again.

Is there anything special that changed with the newest version when setting up geofences to get it to FIRE GEOFENCES like before?

To answer your questions:

Here's one of the geofences:

{
    "identifier": "-KxsBI2uRgLXppk8ogGT",
    "radius": "100",
    "latitude": 41.059098,
    "longitude": -83.589661,
    "notifyOnEntry": true,
    "notifyOnExit": true,
    "notifyOnDwell": true,
    "loiteringDelay": 30000,
    "extras": {
        "location": "-KxsBI2uRgLXppk8ogGT",
        "campaign": "-KwuecyexbJW5Z5fvuuP",
        "user": "wAcF2QjJJtV2PkyrP5SxxdhE2YA3"
    }
}

No.

These are set to 100

The docs are mistaken. It should read minimum is 200. Change your radius to 200.

t is never changed from the default value. W

I'm not talking about the plugin config. I'm talking about your Android Device Settings -> Location.

ShawnPavel commented 5 years ago

I updated it to 200. And the device is configured to use wifi for high accuracy GPS. Still no events.

My issue here is that it works when I run v1.8 but not 1.90-beta.4. If I downgrade to 1.8 and go for the exact same walk, I get geofence events firing without changing any configuration on my device or the plugin.

ShawnPavel commented 5 years ago

@christocracy I am coming back to this issue again after some time away working on other projects. I am still experiencing the issue above when running background geofences only. I do not see any geofence events firing for Android. I am still using the configuration above, but I am now using version 1.9.1 of the background-geolocation-lt plugin.

With the configuration provided above I receive ENTER events on iOS almost instantly after creating the geofence. This is as I expected it to behave. I have tested with a walk, and a drive across town. I do not get any geofence events.

Here is a recent email log from my last test:

@christocracy Can you provide any insight as to why the geofence events aren't firing?
