FusedLocation is an open-source project to support the Android's new LocationRequest in Appcelerator's Titanium Mobile.

• Titanium Mobile SDK 6.1.0.GA or later
• Android 2.3 or later

• Stable release

Unpack the module and place it inside the modules/android/ folder of your project. Edit the modules section of your tiapp.xml file to include this module:

<modules>
    <module platform="android">ca.underlabs.fusedlocation</module>
</modules>

var FusedLocation = require('ca.underlabs.fusedlocation');

GoogleApiClient.startGeoLocation({
    success: function(e) {
        // returns similar to iOS location event: 
        // {"type":"location","success":true,"provider":"fused",
        //      "coords":{"bearing":0,"latitude":40.4688283,"timestamp":1486002223000,"speed":0,"accuracy":1,"longitude":-72.74637}}
        Ti.API.info(JSON.stringify(e)); 
        // handleLocation(e); // create a function that handles the event for both platforms!
    },
    error: function(e) {
        Ti.API.info('Android GeoLocation Fusion Error :(');
        Ti.API.info(JSON.stringify(e));
    }
});

GoogleApiClient.stopGeoLocation();

By Default in the code (hardcoded - pull requests welcomed):

• PRIORITY is set to 100 (meaning GPS - Most Accurate)
• DISTANCE_FILTER is set to 5 meters (location event updates when accelerometers senses that 5 meters have been traversed)

If Distance Filter is triggered (example driving very fast), below are handled by:

• FASTEST_UPDATE_FREQ is set to 1 second (every 1 sec at fastest)
• INTERVAL is set to 5 second (at latest)

Make sure to delete in /1.2.1/lib/ these 2 jars:

• classes-base.jar and
• classes-basement.jar

Since they’re already in ti.map, and just leave classes.jar (which holds com.google.android.gms.location)

If you want to build the module from the source, you need to check some things beforehand:

• You'll need all three .jar files in your build path
• With Ti >= 6.1.0, use within android folder appc run --build-only

TODO: These are Hardcoded - PullRequests are Welcomed, and I will try to update it so that these can be passed from Ti App part of startGeoLocation.

[ ] Allow params to be passed to startGeoLocation for: priority, distanceFilter, fastestInterval and interval

Code contributions are greatly appreciated, please submit a new pull request!
