Geolocation Module

The Geolocation module configures native location services, requests authorization, and reads the device’s current position.

import { Geolocation } from '@shopgate/native-modules';

Example React component

import { useState } from 'react';
import { Geolocation } from '@shopgate/native-modules';

export function LocateButton() {
  const [position, setPosition] = useState(null);
  const locate = async () => {
    await Geolocation.requestAuthorization();
    setPosition(await Geolocation.getCurrentPosition());
  };
  return <button type="button" onClick={locate}>{position ? 'Located' : 'Locate me'}</button>;
}

setConfiguration(config)

await Geolocation.setConfiguration({ authorizationLevel: 'whenInUse' });

Name	Type	Required	Description
skipPermissionRequests	boolean	no	Prevent automatic permission requests.
authorizationLevel	string	no	whenInUse, always, or auto.

requestAuthorization()

await Geolocation.requestAuthorization();

getCurrentPosition(params)

const position = await Geolocation.getCurrentPosition({ enableHighAccuracy: true });

getCurrentPosition() returns a native geolocation position with latitude, longitude, accuracy, and related coordinates.
