#FTLocationManager
Utility class for simple block-based getting of current user's location on iOS. This class encapsulates CLLocationManager
under super-simple, block-based Objective-C interface.
##Usage
- Download
FTLocationManager
sources from this repository - Add files from
FTLocationManager
folder to your project (FTLocationManager.h
/.m
) - Link you project with
CoreLocation.framework
// Get FTLocationManager singleton instance
FTLocationManager *locationManager = [FTLocationManager sharedManager];
// Ask the location manager to get current location and get notified using provided handler block
[locationManager updateLocationWithCompletionHandler:^(CLLocation *location, NSError *error, BOOL locationServicesDisabled) {
if (error)
{
// Handle error here
if (locationServicesDisabled) {
// Location services are disabled, you can ask the user to enable them for example
}
}
else
{
// Do whatever you want with the current user's location
}
}];
You are done!
###Additional configuration
You can customize behavior of FTLocationManager
using few properties, but you do not generally need to do this as it uses reasonable default values.
####maxErrorsCount Manager automatically skips few first received errors in order to really get some location.
Default value: 3 errors (handler block with error will be called on 3rd error returned by internal CLLocationManager
####errorTimeout Manager automatically uses timeout to make sure handler block will be really called in some reasonable time from requesting the location.
Default value: 3s (if the internal CLLocationManager
does not give any location in 3s from calling updateLocationWithCompletionHandler:
, handler block will be called with custom error with FTLocationManagerErrorDomain
domain and FTLocationManagerErrorCodeTimedOut
status code)
