Add it in your build.gradle at the end of repositories:

allprojects {
    repositories {
        ...
        maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
    }
}

Add the dependency in the form:

dependencies {
    compile 'com.github.hzw1199:AndroidGpsStatus:1.2'
}

Features

  • The layout of GpsStatusTextView and GpsStatusImageView are independent
  • The color of GpsStatusTextView shows the status of GPS sensor: closed, fixed, unfixed
  • The icon of GpsStatusImageView shows the status of GPS signal strength: closed, weak, medium, strong (through the number of satellites)
  • Accurately make judgments while manual open and close the GPS
  • Accurately make judgments while in the tunnel leading to the loss of GPS positioning

Usage

Layout

GpsStatusTextView

  • Configure the GpsStatusTextView
<com.adam.gpsstatus.GpsStatusTextView
    android:id="@+id/gpsText"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="48dp"
    android:text="GPS"
    android:textSize="24sp"
    android:textStyle="bold"
    android:gravity="center_vertical"
    app:colorClosed="@color/gps_icon_red"
    app:colorFixed="@color/gps_icon_green"
    app:colorUnFixed="@color/gps_icon_yellow"/>
  • Configure xml attributes to set the text color of GPS status: closed, fixed, unfixed
Attribute format describe default
colorClosed color text color while GPS is closed #F44336
colorFixed color text color while GPS is fixed #4CAF50
colorUnFixed color text color while GPS is searching satellites #F4B400

GpsStatusImageView

  • Configure the GpsStatusImageView
<com.adam.gpsstatus.GpsStatusImageView
    android:id="@+id/gpsImage"
    android:layout_width="48dp"
    android:layout_height="48dp"
    app:drawable0="@drawable/ic_gps_0_24dp"
    app:drawable1="@drawable/ic_gps_1_24dp"
    app:drawable2="@drawable/ic_gps_2_24dp"
    app:drawable3="@drawable/ic_gps_3_24dp"
    app:thr_1_2="4"
    app:thr_2_3="7" />
  • Configure xml attributes to set the drawable of GPS signal strength: closed, weak, medium, strong
  • Configure xml attributes to set GPS signal strength weak - medium, medium - strong through the thresholds of satellite number, default thresholds are 4 and 7
Attribute format describe default
drawable0 reference drawable while GPS closed ic_gps_0_24dp
drawable1 reference drawable while GPS signal is weak ic_gps_1_24dp
drawable2 reference drawable while GPS signal is medium ic_gps_2_24dp
drawable3 reference drawable while GPS signal is strong ic_gps_3_24dp
thr_1_2 integer threshold of satellite number from weak to medium 4
thr_2_3 integer threshold of satellite number from medium to strong 7

Set Up

You only need to define GpsStatusTextView or GpsStatusImageView in layout, but still need to do the following in the code:

  • Permission
    Add permission in AndroidManifest.xml
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
  • Define
GpsStatusProxy proxy;
  • Initialization
    Make sure to have ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION permission before initialization
proxy = GpsStatusProxy.getInstance(getApplicationContext());
proxy.register();
  • Call GpsStatusProxy.notifyLocation(android.location.Location) in location callback, for example:
LocationManager locationManager = (LocationManager) getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 1000, 1, listener);
LocationListener listener = new LocationListener() {
    @Override
    public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
        proxy.notifyLocation(location);
    }

    @Override
    public void onStatusChanged(String provider, int status, Bundle extras) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onProviderEnabled(String provider) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onProviderDisabled(String provider) {

    }
};
  • Destroy
proxy.unRegister();
