Example app shows some possibilities of cordova-background-geolocation plugin.
Replace platform with one of supported platforms: android, ios. In this example we will build for Android.
$ cordova platform add android
$ cordova build android
There is after_platform_add hook in config.xml which runs script that install all required plugins.
You will need to install ios-deploy package.
$ npm -g install ios-deploy
cordova run ios --device
cordova run android --device
You will need to install ios-sim package first
$ npm -g install ios-sim
Run in default emulator
$ cordova emulate ios
You can use cordova run ios --list to see all available targets and cordova run ios --target=target_name to run application on a specific device or emulator (for example, cordova run ios --target="iPhone-6").
To deploy the app on a default Android emulator.
$ cordova emulate android
You can use cordova run android --list to see all available targets and cordova run android --target=target_name to run application on a specific device or emulator (for example, cordova run android --target="Nexus4_emulator").
All plugins will be installed from npm at their latest version. However if you want to install your local version on cordova-plugin-background-geolocation, you can do that:
$ cordova plugin rm cordova-plugin-mauron85-background-geolocation
$ cordova plugin add file:///absolute_path_to_your/cordova-plugin-background-geolocation/
$ cordova build
- transistorsoft for background-geolocation-console, cordova-background-geolocation and SampleApp.
If you're using XCode, boot the SampleApp in the iOS Simulator and enable Debug->Location->City Drive.
