Get User's Location for flutter Web [closed]

Answer 1

To be able to retrieve the position for the web part I had to use https://pub.dev/packages/js to expose the JavaScript API and combine it with https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Geolocation_API.

So here how it looks like :

1. First create a file (ex: locationJs.dart) to expose the JS function :

    @JS('navigator.geolocation') // navigator.geolocation namespace
    library jslocation; // library name can be whatever you want
   
    import "package:js/js.dart";
   
   @JS('getCurrentPosition') // Accessing method getCurrentPosition 
   from       Geolocation API
   external void getCurrentPosition(Function success(GeolocationPosition pos));
   
   @JS()
   @anonymous
   class GeolocationCoordinates {
     external double get latitude;
     external double get longitude;
     external double get altitude;
     external double get accuracy;
     external double get altitudeAccuracy;
     external double get heading;
     external double get speed;
   
   external factory GeolocationCoordinates(
     {double latitude,
     double longitude,
     double altitude,
     double accuracy,
     double altitudeAccuracy,
     double heading,
     double speed});
     }
   
   @JS()
   @anonymous
   class GeolocationPosition {
   external GeolocationCoordinates get coords;
   
   external factory GeolocationPosition({GeolocationCoordinates 
   coords});
   }
   

2. Call the newly created file

    import 'package:Shared/locationJs.dart';
   
     success(pos) {
        try {
          print(pos.coords.latitude);
          print(pos.coords.longitude);
          } catch (ex) {
           print("Exception thrown : " + ex.toString());
            }
        }
   
     _getCurrentLocation() {
         if (kIsWeb) {
           getCurrentPosition(allowInterop((pos) => success(pos)));
                   }
         }
