How do I request permission for Android Device Location in React Native at run-time?

Question

I have been trying to use React Native \'s GeoLocalisation for an Android App. The poorly documentated module is found here https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/geol

Answer 1

You could use the react native PermissionsAndroid to request the permission: https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/permissionsandroid.html#request

Or, an easier option will be using a library that does it for you, such as https://github.com/yonahforst/react-native-permissions
