Prerequisites

minSdkVersion >= 15
Google Play Services = 11.8.0
Support Library = 27.0.2

Download

Include the jcenter repository in your top build.gradle:

Enabled by default on AndroidStudio projects

allprojects {
    jcenter()
}

Include the dependency in your app build.gradle:

dependencies {
    implementation 'com.schibstedspain.android:leku:4.0.1'
}

Alternatively, if you are using a different version of Google Play Services than 11.8.0 use this instead:

implementation ('com.schibstedspain.android:leku:4.0.1') {
    exclude group: 'com.google.android.gms'
    exclude group: 'com.android.support'
}

Permissions

You must add the following permissions in order to use the Google Maps Android API:

• android.permission.INTERNET Used by the API to download map tiles from Google Maps servers.

• android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE Allows the API to check the connection status in order to determine whether data can be downloaded.

The following permissions are not required to use Google Maps Android API v2, but are recommended.

• android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION Allows the API to use WiFi or mobile cell data (or both) to determine the device's location. The API returns the location with an accuracy approximately equivalent to a city block.

• android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION Allows the API to determine as precise a location as possible from the available location providers, including the Global Positioning System (GPS) as well as WiFi and mobile cell data.

• android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE Allows the API to cache map tile data in the device's external storage area.

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />

<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.location.network" android:required="false" />
<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.location.gps" android:required="false"  />

You must also explicitly declare that your app uses the android.hardware.location.network or android.hardware.location.gps hardware features if your app targets Android 5.0 (API level 21) or higher and uses the ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION or ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION permission in order to receive location updates from the network or a GPS, respectively.

Note: It supports runtime permissions for Android 6 (Marshmallow). You don't need to do anything, it will ask for permissions if needed.

Usage

To use the LocationPickerActivity first you need to add these lines to your AndroidManifest file:

<activity
    android:name="com.schibstedspain.leku.LocationPickerActivity"
    android:label="@string/leku_title_activity_location_picker"
    android:theme="@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar"
    android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"
    android:parentActivityName=".MainActivity">
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.SEARCH" />
    </intent-filter>
    <meta-data android:name="android.app.searchable"
        android:resource="@xml/leku_searchable" />
    <meta-data
        android:name="android.support.PARENT_ACTIVITY"
        android:value=".MainActivity" />
</activity>

Then you have setup the call to start this activity wherever you like, always as startActivityForResult. You can set a default location, search zone and other customizable parameters to load when you start the activity. You only need to use the Builder setters like:

Intent intent = new LocationPickerActivity.Builder()
    .withLocation(41.4036299, 2.1743558)
    .withGeolocApiKey("<PUT API KEY HERE>")
    .withSearchZone("es_ES")
    .shouldReturnOkOnBackPressed()
    .withStreetHidden()
    .withCityHidden()
    .withZipCodeHidden()
    .withSatelliteViewHidden()
    .build(getApplicationContext());

startActivityForResult(intent, 1);

And add the response code from that activity:

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    if (requestCode == 1) {
        if(resultCode == RESULT_OK){
            double latitude = data.getDoubleExtra(LocationPickerActivity.LATITUDE, 0);
            Log.d("LATITUDE****", String.valueOf(latitude));
            double longitude = data.getDoubleExtra(LocationPickerActivity.LONGITUDE, 0);
            Log.d("LONGITUDE****", String.valueOf(longitude));
            String address = data.getStringExtra(LocationPickerActivity.LOCATION_ADDRESS);
            Log.d("ADDRESS****", String.valueOf(address));
            String postalcode = data.getStringExtra(LocationPickerActivity.ZIPCODE);
            Log.d("POSTALCODE****", String.valueOf(postalcode));
            Bundle bundle = data.getBundleExtra(LocationPickerActivity.TRANSITION_BUNDLE);
            Log.d("BUNDLE TEXT****", bundle.getString("test"));
            Address fullAddress = data.getParcelableExtra(LocationPickerActivity.ADDRESS);
            if(fullAddress != null)  
              Log.d("FULL ADDRESS****", fullAddress.toString());
        }
        if (resultCode == RESULT_CANCELED) {
            //Write your code if there's no result
        }
    }
}

That's all folks!

Google Places

Leku now supports Google Places queries using the search box. If you want to enable it these are the steps you need to follow:

1. You need to replace your old com.google.android.maps.v2.API_KEY meta-data for the com.google.android.geo.API_KEY

<!-- Use this if only using Maps and not Places
    <meta-data
        android:name="com.google.android.maps.v2.API_KEY"
        android:value="@string/google_maps_key"
        />
-->

    <meta-data
        android:name="com.google.android.geo.API_KEY"
        android:value="@string/google_maps_key"/>

2. Enable Google Places API for Android on your google developer console.

3. Enable it when instantiating LocationPickerActivity by adding .withGooglePlacesEnabled():

Intent intent = new LocationPickerActivity.Builder()
    **.withGooglePlacesEnabled()**
    .build(getApplicationContext());

And you are good to go. :)

Localization

If you would like to add more language translations the only thing you have to do is:

1. Crate a new strings resource folder and file for your language like "/values-ru".
2. Add all text translations for those strings:

<string name="leku_title_activity_location_picker">Location Picker</string>
<string name="leku_load_location_error">Something went wrong. Please try again.</string>
<string name="leku_no_search_results">There are no results for your search</string>
<string name="leku_unknown_location">unknown location</string>
<string name="leku_voice_search_promp">Search by voice…</string>
<string name="leku_voice_search_extra_language">en-EN</string>
<string name="leku_toolbar_action_voice_title">Voice</string>
<string name="leku_search_hint">Search</string>

Note that you have the voice_search_extra_language that is used for the language of the voice recognition. Replace it with the allowed voice recognition locale for your language.

I encourage you to add these languages to this component, please fork this project and submit new languages with a PR. Thanks!

Transition Bundle

If you need to send and receive a param through the LocationPickerActivity you can do it. You only need to add an "Extra" param to the intent like:

Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), LocationPickerActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("test", "this is a test");
startActivityForResult(intent, 1);

And parse it on onActivityResult callback:

Bundle bundle = data.getBundleExtra(LocationPickerActivity.TRANSITION_BUNDLE);
String test = bundle.getString("test");

Customization

Theming

This library uses AppCompat, so should use Theme.AppCompat or descendant in manifest.

<item name="colorPrimary">#E91E63</item>
<item name="colorPrimaryDark">#C51162</item>
<item name="colorAccent">#FBC02D</item>
<item name="colorControlActivated">#E91E63</item>

colorControlActivated is used to colorize Street title, if not set, it uses colorAccent by default

Layout

It's possible to hide or show some of the information shown after selecting a location. Using tha bundle parameter LocationPickerActivity.LAYOUTS_TO_HIDE you can change the visibility of the street, city or the zipcode.

intent.putExtra(LocationPickerActivity.LAYOUTS_TO_HIDE, "street|city|zipcode");

Search Zone

By default the search will be restricted to a zone determined by your default locale. If you want to force the search zone you can do it by adding this line with the locale preferred:

intent.putExtra(LocationPickerActivity.SEARCH_ZONE, "es_ES");

Force return location on back pressed

If you want to force that when the user clicks on back button it returns the location you can use this parameter (note: is only enabled if you don't provide a location):

intent.putExtra(LocationPickerActivity.BACK_PRESSED_RETURN_OK, true);

Enable/Disable the Satellite view

If you want to disable the satellite view button you can use this parameter (note: the satellite view is enabled by default):

intent.putExtra(LocationPickerActivity.ENABLE_SATELLITE_VIEW, false);

Enable/Disable requesting location permissions

If you want to disable asking for location permissions (and prevent any location requests)

intent.putExtra(LocationPickerActivity.ENABLE_LOCATION_PERMISSION_REQUEST, false);

Tracking

Optionally, you can set a tracking events listener. Implement LocationPickerTracker interface, and set it in your Application class as follows:

LocationPicker.setTracker(new <<YourOwnTracker implementing LocationPickerTracker>>());

Available tracking events are:

TAG	Message
didLoadLocationPicker	Location Picker
didSearchLocations	Click on search for locations
didLocalizeMe	Click on localize me
didLocalizeByPoi	Long click on map
RESULT_OK	Return location
CANCEL	Return without location

Geocoding API Fallback

In few cases, the geocoding service from Android fails due to an issue with the NetworkLocator. The only way of fixing this is rebooting the device.

In order to cover these cases, you can instruct Leku to use the Geocoding API. To enable it, just use the method '''withGeolocApiKey''' when invoking the LocationPicker.

You should provide your Server Key as parameter. Keep in mind that the free tier only allows 2,500 requests per day. You can track how many times is it used in the Developer Console from Google.

Extra

If you would like to use the Geocoder presenter (MVP) used for this use case you are free to use it! GeocoderPresenter has three methods:

• getLastKnownLocation: Which obviously returns the last known user location as a Location object.

• getFromLocationName(String query): Returns a List<Address> for the text introduced.

• getFromLocationName(String query, LatLng lowerLeft, LatLng upperRight): Returns a List<Address> for the text and the Rectangle introduced.

• getDebouncedFromLocationName(String query, int debounceTime): Returns a List<Address> for the text introduced. Useful if you want to implement your own search view with auto-complete.

• getDebouncedFromLocationName(String query, LatLng lowerLeft, LatLng upperRight, int debounceTime): Returns a List<Address> for the text and the Rectangle introduced. Useful if you want to implement your own search view with auto-complete.

• getInfoFromLocation(double latitude, double longitude): Returns a List<Address> based on a latitude and a longitude.

To use it first you need to implement the GeocoderViewInterface interface in your class like:

public class LocationPickerActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements GeocoderViewInterface {

Then you need to setup the presenter:

private GeocoderPresenter geocoderPresenter;

@Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
  ***
    GooglePlacesDataSource placesDataSource = new GooglePlacesDataSource(Places.getGeoDataClient(this, null));
    Geocoder geocoder = new Geocoder(this, Locale.getDefault());
    apiInteractor = new GoogleGeocoderDataSource(new NetworkClient(), new AddressBuilder());
    GeocoderRepository geocoderRepository = new GeocoderRepository(new AndroidGeocoderDataSource(geocoder), apiInteractor);
    geocoderPresenter = new GeocoderPresenter(new ReactiveLocationProvider(getApplicationContext()), geocoderRepository, placesDataSource);
    geocoderPresenter.setUI(this);
  ***
}

And besides filling the interface methods you have to add some things to your activity/fragment lifecycle to ensure that there are no leaks.

@Override
protected void onStart() {
    super.onStart();
    geocoderPresenter.setUI(this);
}

@Override
protected void onStop() {
    geocoderPresenter.stop();
    super.onStop();
}

Tests

Note: If you need to execute the Espresso test you will need to add the Google Maps Key into the Tests AndroidManifest.xml

Now you have all you need. :)

Important

Searching using the "SearchView" (geocoder) will be restricted to a zone if you are with a Locale from: US, UK, France, Italy and Spain. If not, the search will return results from all the world.

Sample usage

We provide a sample project which provides runnable code samples that demonstrate their use in Android applications. Note that you need to include your Google Play services key in the sample to be able to test it.
