Usage

import LocationManagerIOS from 'react-native-location-manager-ios';

API

Events

Event names are available under LocationManagerIOS.Events object.

const subscription = LocationManagerIOS.addListener(LocationManagerIOS.Events.didUpdateLocations, console.log);
// ...
subscription.remove();

See CLLocationManagerDelegate for in-depth details.

Enums

LocationManagerIOS.addListener(LocationManagerIOS.Events.didFailWithError, (err) => {
  if (err.code === LocationManagerIOS.Error.LocationUnknown) {
    // ...
  }
});

Properties

Property getters return a promise resolved with the property value.

See CLLocationManager for in-depth details.

const monitoredRegions = await LocationManagerIOS.monitoredRegions;
monitoredRegions.forEach(console.log)

const distanceFilter = await LocationManagerIOS.distanceFilter;
if (distanceFilter === LocationManagerIOS.DistanceFilter.None) {
  LocationManagerIOS.distanceFilter = 3;
}

LocationManagerIOS.desiredAccuracy = LocationManagerIOS.LocationAccuracy.BestForNavigation;

LocationManagerIOS.activityType = LocationManagerIOS.ActivityType.AutomotiveNavigation;

Methods

Non void methods return a promise which will resolve to the according type.

See CLLocationManager for in-depth details.
