  • RE: Get GPS coordinates via terminal or python?

    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()

  • Get GPS coordinates via terminal or python?

    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 🙂
