Getting Geolocation coordinates using AngularJS

angularjs, geolocation

Solution

Everything is easy :) your console.log is located beyond collback borders,

function (position) {
  mysrclat = position.coords.latitude; 
  mysrclong = position.coords.longitude;
  console.log(mysrclat);
  console.log(mysrclong);
});

Problem

I am trying to get the latitude and longitude of my position using AngularJS and Geolocation. This is the function in the controller in which I am assigning the values of the latitude and the longitude and printing them out to the browser console. The nearme() function is called, ``` var mysrclat= 0; var mysrclong = 0; $scope.nearme = function($scope) { if (navigator.geolocation) { navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function (position) { mysrclat = position.coords.latitude; mysrclong = position.coords.longitude; }); console.log(mysrclat); console.log(mysrclong); } } ``` The issue is that, the first time, the coordinates print as 0, 0. Then, after that it prints the correct values of the coordinates. Why is it printing 0, 0 as the coordinates the first time?
