# capacitor-background-geolocation-firebase
[](https://www.transistorsoft.com)
By [**Transistor Software**](http://transistorsoft.com), creators of [**Capacitor Background Geolocation**](http://www.transistorsoft.com/shop/products/capacitor-background-geolocation)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Firebase Proxy for [Capacitor Background Geolocation](https://github.com/transistorsoft/capacitor-background-geolocation). The plugin will automatically post locations to your own Firebase database, overriding the `capacitor-background-geolocation` plugin's SQLite / HTTP services.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The **[Android module](https://shop.transistorsoft.com/collections/frontpage/products/background-geolocation-firebase)** requires [purchasing a license](https://shop.transistorsoft.com/collections/frontpage/products/background-geolocation-firebase). However, it *will* work for **DEBUG** builds. It will **not** work with **RELEASE** builds [without purchasing a license](https://shop.transistorsoft.com/collections/frontpage/products/background-geolocation-firebase).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
## :large_blue_diamond: Installing the Plugin
### From npm
```
$ npm install @transistorsoft/capacitor-background-geolocation-firebase --save
```
### From yarn
```bash
$ yarn add @transistorsoft/capacitor-background-geolocation-firebase
```
### Latest from Github
```
$ npm install git+https://[email protected]:transistorsoft/capacitor-background-geolocation-firebase.git --save
```
## :large_blue_diamond: Setup Guides
## iOS

## Android

## :large_blue_diamond: Configure your license
1. Login to Customer Dashboard to generate an application key:
[www.transistorsoft.com/shop/customers](http://www.transistorsoft.com/shop/customers)
2. Add your license-key to `android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml`:
```diff
+
.
.
.
```
## :large_blue_diamond: Using the plugin ##
```javascript
import {BackgroundGeolocationFirebase} from "capacitor-background-geolocation-firebase";
```
## :large_blue_diamond: Example
```javascript
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import BackgroundGeolocation from '@transistorsoft/capacitor-background-geolocation';
import {BackgroundGeolocationFirebase} from '@transistorsoft/capacitor-background-geolocation-firebase';
@Component({
selector: 'app-home',
templateUrl: 'home.page.html',
styleUrls: ['home.page.scss'],
})
export class HomePage {
constructor() {}
// Initialize in ngAfterContentInit
// [WARNING] DO NOT use ionViewWillEnter, as that method won't run when app is launched in background.
ngAfterContentInit() {
this.initBackgroundGeolocation();
}
async initBackgroundGeolocation() {
////
// 1. configure BackgroundGeolocationFirebase
//
BackgroundGeolocationFirebase.configure({
locationsCollection: "locations",
geofencesCollection: "geofences"
});
////
// 2. Configure BackgroundGeolocation as usual.
//
BackgroundGeolocation.ready({
...
}.then((state) => {
console.log("- BackgroundGeolocation is configured and ready");
});
}
}
```
## :large_blue_diamond: Firebase Functions
`BackgroundGeolocation` will post its default "Location Data Schema" to your Firebase app.
```json
{
"location":{},
"param1": "param 1",
"param2": "param 2"
}
```
You should implement your own [Firebase Functions](https://firebase.google.com/docs/functions) to "*massage*" the incoming data in your collection as desired. For example:
```typescript
import * as functions from 'firebase-functions';
exports.createLocation = functions.firestore
.document('locations/{locationId}')
.onCreate((snap, context) => {
const record = snap.data();
const location = record.location;
console.log('[data] - ', record);
return snap.ref.set({
uuid: location.uuid,
timestamp: location.timestamp,
is_moving: location.is_moving,
latitude: location.coords.latitude,
longitude: location.coords.longitude,
speed: location.coords.speed,
heading: location.coords.heading,
altitude: location.coords.altitude,
event: location.event,
battery_is_charging: location.battery.is_charging,
battery_level: location.battery.level,
activity_type: location.activity.type,
activity_confidence: location.activity.confidence,
extras: location.extras
});
});
exports.createGeofence = functions.firestore
.document('geofences/{geofenceId}')
.onCreate((snap, context) => {
const record = snap.data();
const location = record.location;
console.log('[data] - ', record);
return snap.ref.set({
uuid: location.uuid,
identifier: location.geofence.identifier,
action: location.geofence.action,
timestamp: location.timestamp,
latitude: location.coords.latitude,
longitude: location.coords.longitude,
extras: location.extras,
});
});
```
## :large_blue_diamond: Configuration Options
#### `@param {String} locationsCollection [locations]`
The collection name to post `location` events to. Eg:
```javascript
BackgroundGeolocationFirebase.configure({
locationsCollection: '/locations'
});
BackgroundGeolocationFirebase.configure({
locationsCollection: '/users/123/locations'
});
BackgroundGeolocationFirebase.configure({
locationsCollection: '/users/123/routes/456/locations'
});
```
#### `@param {String} geofencesCollection [geofences]`
The collection name to post `geofence` events to. Eg:
```javascript
BackgroundGeolocationFirebase.configure({
geofencesCollection: '/geofences'
});
BackgroundGeolocationFirebase.configure({
geofencesCollection: '/users/123/geofences'
});
BackgroundGeolocationFirebase.configure({
geofencesCollection: '/users/123/routes/456/geofences'
});
```
#### `@param {Boolean} updateSingleDocument [false]`
If you prefer, you can instruct the plugin to update a *single document* in Firebase rather than creating a new document for *each* `location` / `geofence`. In this case, you would presumably implement a *Firebase Function* to deal with updates upon this single document and store the location in some other collection as desired. If this is your use-case, you'll also need to ensure you configure your `locationsCollection` / `geofencesCollection` accordingly with an even number of "parts", taking the form `/collection_name/document_id`, eg:
```javascript
BackgroundGeolocationFirebase.configure({
locationsCollection: '/locations/latest' // <-- 2 "parts": even
});
// or
BackgroundGeolocationFirebase.configure({
locationsCollection: '/users/123/routes/456/the_location' // <-- 4 "parts": even
});
// Don't use an odd number of "parts"
BackgroundGeolocationFirebase.configure({
locationsCollection: '/users/123/latest_location' // <-- 3 "parts": odd!! No!
});
```
