Thank you both! This was more like a pre-app planning and testing ideas thing

I didn't know if there is a whoami type of command to location. So I checked the Utrack and quickly writed my own whereami-script.

Here is the code if someone needs it.

#!/usr/bin/env python3
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

import subprocess


def whereami():
    print('Searching...')
    latitude = ''
    longitude = ''
    for line in get_data():
        if 'latitude' in line.decode("utf-8").lower():
            latitude = line.decode("utf-8")
        if 'longtide' in line.decode("utf-8").lower():
            longitude = line.decode("utf-8") 
        if latitude and longitude:
            print('Location:\n {}\n {}'.format(latitude, longitude))
            break
            
def get_data():
    cmd = "sudo test_gps"
    gps_data = subprocess.Popen(cmd, shell=True, stdin=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE, stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
    
    while True:
        line = gps_data.stdout.readline().rstrip()
        if not line:
            break
        yield line
                       
if __name__=='__main__':
    whereami()

What is the (easiest) way to get current location or information about last known location using cli-command or python script? I am trying to write my first app for phones, so help is needed
