How To Get Device Location?

I am using openweathermap to parse weather information, it works fine without the city, but when I try to fetch city, it force closes. How do I fix this? been searching for hours b

Solution 1:

Please find attached code for fetching location using LocationManager.

private GoogleApiClient mGoogleApiClient;
        private Context mContext;

    @SuppressWarnings({"MissingPermission"})publicvoidgetLocation(Context context) {
            mContext = context;
            LocationManagerlocationManager= (LocationManager) context.getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);

            if (locationManager != null) {
                // getting GPS statusbooleanisGPSEnabled= locationManager.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);

                // getting network statusbooleanisNetworkEnabled= locationManager.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER);

                if (!isGPSEnabled && !isNetworkEnabled) {
                    //Show message alert for gps enable 
                } else {
                    mGoogleApiClient = newGoogleApiClient.Builder(context)
                            .addConnectionCallbacks(this)
                            .addOnConnectionFailedListener(this)
                            .addApi(LocationServices.API)
                            .build();
                    mGoogleApiClient.connect();
                }
            }
        }

After that, you will get callback on onConnected method and you get location from there

@OverridepublicvoidonConnected(@Nullable Bundle bundle) {
    Locationlocation= LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.getLastLocation(
            mGoogleApiClient);
    if (location != null) {
        double lat= location.getLatitude();
       double lang= location.getLongitude());
    } else {
        //No location found message
    }
    mGoogleApiClient.disconnect();
}
