config settings not being used

[liquidcms]

I have set config values (specifically interval and distanceFilter) and these appear to not be used.

Your Environment

• Plugin version: 3.1.0
• Platform: Android
• OS version: Android ver 9
• Device manufacturer and model: LG G6

• Running in Simulator: no, real device
• Cordova version (cordova -v): 10.0.0
• Cordova platform version (cordova platform ls): Cordova Platforms : 6.0.0, android 9.0.0, browser
• Plugin configuration options:
  desiredAccuracy: 0,
  stationaryRadius: 2,
  distanceFilter: 3,
  notificationTitle: 'Background Tracking',
  notificationText: 'Enabled',
  debug: false,
  interval: 5000,
  stopOnTerminate: true,

Context

I have interval set to 5000 (5 sec??) and distanceFilter set to 3 (m). When i run in browser i get 3 events almost immediately (likely not important as its the browser) timestamped at roughly the same time. And then it stops. On the real device, sitting on my sofa, i get events every 1 second. Indefinitely.

I thought perhaps the time/distance filters were being ORed instead of ANDed and maybe the distance accuracy is worse than 3m (which i am sure it is); so i changed it to 50 and retested. Still updated every 1 second.

Expected Behavior

I should get NO updates after the first event as i am not moving. If i were to start moving around; i should get 1 event every 3 seconds.

Actual Behavior

]

Event fired every second.

Possible Fix

Steps to Reproduce

Context

I am trying to build a walking tour app. In other words, a user walks around and when they are close to a defined location, a windows opens with details about that location. Despite GPS spec suggesting i should be able to get 3m accuracy (which would be sufficient for the app); i have not seen any geo locate with cordova/android/my phone be any more accurate than 20m. Although this is not sufficient for the app; client is interested to see how well it works. So i need to start with simply following user around on the map (ala Google Maps); but firing constantly every 1 sec and when user is not moving, i am sure will kill battery very quickly.

Debug logs

• i'll look into grabbing these.
