I\'m trying to get latitude and longitude from Android device and send it to MySQL database. when any one register his current latitude and longitude saved in the database.b
Create a background service class like this
public class LocationBackGroundService extends Service implements LocationListener,
GoogleApiClient.ConnectionCallbacks,
GoogleApiClient.OnConnectionFailedListener {
private static final String TAG = "LocationBackGroundService";
private static final long INTERVAL = 100;
private static final long FASTEST_INTERVAL = 100;
LocationRequest mLocationRequest;
GoogleApiClient mGoogleApiClient;
Location mCurrentLocation;
Context mCOntext;
public void LocationBackGroundService(Context mContext) {
this.mCOntext = mContext;
}
protected void createLocationRequest() {
mLocationRequest = new LocationRequest();
mLocationRequest.setInterval(INTERVAL);
mLocationRequest.setFastestInterval(FASTEST_INTERVAL);
mLocationRequest.setPriority(LocationRequest.PRIORITY_HIGH_ACCURACY);
}
@Override
public void onStart(Intent intent, int startId) {
super.onStart(intent, startId);
mGoogleApiClient.connect();
}
@Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
if (!isGooglePlayServicesAvailable()) {
// finish();
}
createLocationRequest();
mGoogleApiClient = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(this)
.addApi(LocationServices.API)
.addConnectionCallbacks(this)
.addOnConnectionFailedListener(this)
.build();
if (mGoogleApiClient.isConnected()) {
startLocationUpdates();
}
}
private boolean isGooglePlayServicesAvailable() {
int status = GooglePlayServicesUtil.isGooglePlayServicesAvailable(this);
if (ConnectionResult.SUCCESS == status) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
@Nullable
@Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
return null;
}
@Override
public void onConnected(Bundle bundle) {
startLocationUpdates();
}
protected void startLocationUpdates() {
PendingResult pendingResult = LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.requestLocationUpdates(
mGoogleApiClient, mLocationRequest, this);
Log.d(TAG, "Location update started ..............: ");
}
@Override
public void onConnectionSuspended(int i) {
Toast.makeText(this, "OnConnection Suspended", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
@Override
public void onConnectionFailed(ConnectionResult connectionResult) {
Toast.makeText(this, "OnConnection Failed", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
@Override
public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
if (null != mCurrentLocation) {
mCurrentLocation = location;
String lat = String.valueOf(mCurrentLocation.getLatitude());
String lng = String.valueOf(mCurrentLocation.getLongitude());
}
}
}
And call when activity starts like this
startService(new Intent(this, yourBackgroundServiceName.class));
and in menifest
and don;t forget to add run time permissions before stating a service
