How to get Location user with CLLocationManager in swift?
cllocationmanager, core-location, ios, swift
Solution
first add this two line in plist file
1) `NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription`
2) `NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription`
Then this is class working complete implement this
import UIKit
import CoreLocation
@UIApplicationMain
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate, CLLocationManagerDelegate {
var window: UIWindow?
var locationManager: CLLocationManager!
var seenError : Bool = false
var locationFixAchieved : Bool = false
var locationStatus : NSString = "Not Started"
func application(application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: NSDictionary?) -> Bool {
initLocationManager();
return true
}
// Location Manager helper stuff
func initLocationManager() {
seenError = false
locationFixAchieved = false
locationManager = CLLocationManager()
locationManager.delegate = self
locationManager.locationServicesEnabled
locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyBest
locationManager.requestAlwaysAuthorization()
}
// Location Manager Delegate stuff
func locationManager(manager: CLLocationManager!, didFailWithError error: NSError!) {
locationManager.stopUpdatingLocation()
if (error) {
if (seenError == false) {
seenError = true
print(error)
}
}
}
func locationManager(manager: CLLocationManager!, didUpdateLocations locations: AnyObject[]!) {
if (locationFixAchieved == false) {
locationFixAchieved = true
var locationArray = locations as NSArray
var locationObj = locationArray.lastObject as CLLocation
var coord = locationObj.coordinate
println(coord.latitude)
println(coord.longitude)
}
}
func locationManager(manager: CLLocationManager!,
didChangeAuthorizationStatus status: CLAuthorizationStatus) {
var shouldIAllow = false
switch status {
case CLAuthorizationStatus.Restricted:
locationStatus = "Restricted Access to location"
case CLAuthorizationStatus.Denied:
locationStatus = "User denied access to location"
case CLAuthorizationStatus.NotDetermined:
locationStatus = "Status not determined"
default:
locationStatus = "Allowed to location Access"
shouldIAllow = true
}
NSNotificationCenter.defaultCenter().postNotificationName("LabelHasbeenUpdated", object: nil)
if (shouldIAllow == true) {
NSLog("Location to Allowed")
// Start location services
locationManager.startUpdatingLocation()
} else {
NSLog("Denied access: \(locationStatus)")
}
}
}
Problem
I have this code on my view controller but this not working: ``` import UIKit import CoreLocation class ViewController: UIViewController, CLLocationManagerDelegate { var location: CLLocationManager! override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() location=CLLocationManager() location.delegate = self location.desiredAccuracy=kCLLocationAccuracyBest location.startUpdatingLocation() } func locationManager(location:CLLocationManager, didUpdateLocations locations:AnyObject[]) { println("locations = \(locations)") label1.text = "success" } ``` I have the permissions how I read in other post. but I don't obtain never, no println.. Thanks!!
