New feature: when you’re viewing a picture that was imported, you should show a map with a pin that marks where they were when that picture was added. It might be on the same screen side by side with the photo, it might be shown or hidden using a segmented control, or perhaps it’s on a different screen – it’s down to you. Regardless, you know how to drop pins, and you also know how to use the center coordinate of map views, so the only thing left to figure out is how to get the user’s location to save alongside their text and image.
Add a new key to **Info.plist** called “**Privacy - Location When In Use Usage Description”**, then give it some sort of value explaining to the user why you need their location.
The simulator rather than a real device, you can fake a location by going to the Debug menu and choosing Location > Apple.
import CoreLocation
class LocationFetcher: NSObject, CLLocationManagerDelegate {
let manager = CLLocationManager()
var lastKnownLocation: CLLocationCoordinate2D?
override init() {
super.init()
manager.delegate = self
}
func start() {
manager.requestWhenInUseAuthorization()
manager.startUpdatingLocation()
}
func locationManager(_ manager: CLLocationManager, didUpdateLocations locations: [CLLocation]) {
lastKnownLocation = locations.first?.coordinate
}
}
// Use Example
struct ContentView: View {
let locationFetcher = LocationFetcher()
var body: some View {
VStack {
Button("Start Tracking Location") {
self.locationFetcher.start()
}
Button("Read Location") {
if let location = self.locationFetcher.lastKnownLocation {
print("Your location is \\(location)")
} else {
print("Your location is unknown")
}
}
}
}
}
