First create a BroadcastReceiver class to handle the incoming Location updates:
public class LocationReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver implements Constants {
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
if (LocationResult.hasResult(intent)) {
LocationResult locationResult = LocationResult.extractResult(intent);
Location location = locationResult.getLastLocation();
if (location != null) {
// Do something with your location
} else {
Log.d(LocationReceiver.class.getSimpleName(), "*** location object is null ***");
}
}
}
}
Then when you connect to the GoogleApiClient in the onConnected callback:
@Override
public void onConnected(Bundle connectionHint) {
Intent backgroundIntent = new Intent(this, LocationReceiver.class);
mBackgroundPendingIntent = backgroundPendingIntent.getBroadcast(getApplicationContext(), LOCATION_REUEST_CODE, backgroundIntent, PendingIntent.FLAG_CANCEL_CURRENT);
mFusedLocationProviderApi.requestLocationUpdates(mLocationClient, mLocationRequest, backgroundPendingIntent);
}
Don't forget to remove the location update intent in the appropriate lifecycle callback:
@Override
public void onDestroy() {
if (servicesAvailable && mLocationClient != null) {
if (mLocationClient.isConnected()) {
fusedLocationProviderApi.removeLocationUpdates(mLocationClient, backgroundPendingIntent);
// Destroy the current location client
mLocationClient = null;
} else {
mLocationClient.unregisterConnectionCallbacks(this);
mLocationClient = null;
}
}
super.onDestroy();
}
