Geolocation to Promise wrap example

thinced.js

var getPosition = function (options) {
  return new Promise(function (resolve, reject) {
    navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(resolve, reject, options);
  });
}

getPosition()
  .then((position) => {
    console.log(position);
  })
  .catch((err) => {
    console.error(err.message);
  });

One question: is this a solution to promise catch empty error in ionic geolocation.getCurrentPosition? I am looking for this in all web, since most than one week, so please tell me that is it :(((

To check if Geolocation is supported.

getCurrentPosition: function () {
    if (navigator.geolocation) {
      return new Promise(
        (resolve, reject) => navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(resolve, reject)
      )
    } else {
      return new Promise(
        resolve => resolve({})
      )
    }
  }

getCurrentPosition()
  .then(
    position => console.log(positon);
    if (position.coords) {
      position => console.log(positon);
    } else {
      alert('Geolocation is not supported by this browser.');
    }
  ).catch(
    // error => console.log(error);
    // Or
    error => {
      var msg = null;
      switch(error.code) {
        case error.PERMISSION_DENIED:
            msg = "User denied the request for Geolocation.";
            break;
        case error.POSITION_UNAVAILABLE:
            msg = "Location information is unavailable.";
            break;
        case error.TIMEOUT:
            msg = "The request to get user location timed out.";
            break;
        case error.UNKNOWN_ERROR:
            msg = "An unknown error occurred.";
            break;
      }
      alert(msg);
    }
  )

@erickvieira Did you try to catch via error code like above?

THANK YOU FOR POSTING THAT SOLUTION!

I'm glad I stumbled upon this decision!

Thank you!

After hours of trying to solve it for my self. This freaking saved my life. I been at it for hours. THANK YOU!!

Am I the only one who gets an error while trying to access position.coords ? It says Property 'coords' does not exist on type '{}'.

So elegant, thank you so much :)

Thank you! You save my time :}

After trying to figure this out for a couple of hours, realised I needed a promise.. this solution worked great! thank you 👍

Thank you

Thank you very much!
