PWGPSLocationManager Class Reference

Inherits from	NSObject
Conforms to	PWLocationManager
Declared in	PWGPSLocationManager.h

Overview

The PWGPSLocationManager class defines the interface for configuring the delivery of GPS location-related events to your application. You use an instance of this class to establish the parameters that determine when location events should be delivered and to start and stop the actual delivery of those events. This class conforms to the PWLocationManager protocol.

You are still responsible for requesting permission to use location services. In addition the CLLocationManager associated with this class is exposed so that it can be configured as desired.

Determining Availability of Services

`internalLocationManager`

The CLLocationManager used to deliver indoor GPS location updates.

@property (nonatomic, readonly) CLLocationManager *internalLocationManager

Discussion

You are still responsible for requesting permission to use location services. The CLLocationManagerDelegate of this instance is owned by the PWGPSLocationManager instance.

Declared In

PWGPSLocationManager.h

`__deprecated`

The floor ID mapping dictionary used to define the mapping between the location provider floor ID and the Phunware floor ID. The dictionary format must adhere to the following format: @{CUSTOMER_FLOORID : PHUNWARE_FLOOR_ID}. (Deprecated: Use defaultFloorId instead.)

@property (nonatomic, strong) NSDictionary *__deprecated

Declared In

PWGPSLocationManager.h

`defaultFloorId`

The Maas floor identifier that the GPS locations will map to.

@property (nonatomic, strong) NSNumber *defaultFloorId

`location`

The latest indoor location received from the Phunware location service.

@property (nonatomic, readonly) PWIndoorLocation *location

Declared In

PWGPSLocationManager.h

`– initWithCLLocationManager:`

Initializes the location manager with the specified CLLocationManager instance.

- (instancetype)initWithCLLocationManager:(CLLocationManager *)locationManager

Parameters

Declared In

PWGPSLocationManager.h

`– init`

- (instancetype)init

`– locationServicesAvailable`

Returns a Boolean value indicating whether location services are enabled on the device.

- (BOOL)locationServicesAvailable

Discussion

In order to fetch the user’s location, the manager must be within proximity of the venue and have retrieved specific device information from Phunware’s servers.

Declared In

PWLocationManager.h

`– startUpdatingLocation`

Starts the generation of updates that report the user’s current location.

- (void)startUpdatingLocation

Discussion

This method returns immediately. Calling this method causes the location manager to obtain an initial location fix (which may take several seconds) and notify your delegate by calling its locationManager:didUpdateToLocation: method.

Declared In

PWLocationManager.h

`– stopUpdatingLocation`

Stops the generation of location updates.

- (void)stopUpdatingLocation

Discussion

Call this method whenever your code no longer needs to receive location-related events. Disabling event delivery gives the receiver the option of disabling the appropriate hardware (and thereby saving power) when no clients need location data. You can always restart the generation of location updates by calling the startUpdatingLocation method again.
