Usage

import { HyperTrack } from '@ionic-native/hyper-track';

constructor(private hyperTrack: HyperTrack) { }

// Check if app has location permissions enabled
this.hyperTrack.checkLocationPermission().then(response => {
  // response (String) can be "true" or "false"
  if (response != "true") {
    // Ask for permissions
    this.hyperTrack.requestPermissions().then(response => {}, error => {});
  }
}, error => {});

// Check if app has location services enabled
this.hyperTrack.checkLocationServices().then(response => {
  // response (String) can be "true" or "false"
  if (response != "true") {
    // Request services to be enabled
    this.hyperTrack.requestLocationServices().then(response => {}, error => {});
  }
}, error => {});

// First set the current user. This can be done via getOrCreateUser() or setUserId()
this.hyperTrack.setUserId("xxx").then(user => {
  // user (String) is a String representation of a User's JSON

  this.hyperTrack.startTracking().then(userId => {}, trackingError => {});

  this.hyperTrack.createAndAssignAction('visit', 'lookupId','address', 20.12, -100.3).then(action => {
    // Handle action. It's a String representation of the Action's JSON. For example:
    // '{"eta":"Jul 17, 2017 12:50:03 PM","assigned_at":"Jul 17, 2017 12:34:38 PM",,"distance":"0.0",...}'
  }, error => {});

  // You can complete an action with completeAction() or completeActionWithLookupId()
  this.hyperTrack.completeAction('action-id').then(response => {
    // Handle response (String). Should be "OK".
  }, error => {});

  this.hyperTrack.getCurrentLocation().then(location => {
    // Handle location. It's a String representation of a Location's JSON.For example:
    // '{"mAccuracy":22.601,,"mLatitude":23.123456, "mLongitude":-100.1234567, ...}'
  }, error => {});

  this.hyperTrack.stopTracking().then(success => {
    // Handle success (String). Should be "OK".
  }, error => {});

}, error => {});*

Instance Members

helloWorld(text)

Returns given text. For testing purposes.

Param Type Details
text String

Given text to print

Returns: Promise<any> Returns a Promise that resolves with the result text (which is the same as the given text) if successful, or it gets rejected if an error ocurred.

getOrCreateUser(name, phone, photo, lookupId)

Create a new user to identify the current device or get a user from a lookup id.

Param Type Details
name String

User's name

phone String

User's phone

photo String

User's photo as URL or a Base64 converted string

lookupId String

User's lookupId, which is used to check if a new user is to be created (in this case you could set it to an internal reference for the user that you can use later to identify it), or if one with an existing lookupId is to be used.

Returns: Promise<any> Returns a Promise that resolves with a string representation of the User’s JSON, or it gets rejected if an error ocurred.

setUserId(userId)

Set UserId for the SDK created using HyperTrack APIs. This is useful if you already have a user previously created.

Param Type Details
userId String

User's ID

Returns: Promise<any> Returns a Promise that resolves with an “OK” string if successful, or it gets rejected if an error ocurred. An “OK” response doesn’t necessarily mean that the userId was found. It just means that it was set correctly.

startTracking()

Enable the SDK and start tracking. This will fail if there is no user set.

Returns: Promise<any> Returns a Promise that resolves with the userId (String) of the User being tracked if successful, or it gets rejected if an error ocurred. One example of an error is not setting a User with getOrCreateUser() or setUserId() before calling this function.

createAndAssignAction(type, lookupId, expectedPlaceAddress, expectedPlaceLatitude, expectedPlaceLongitude)

Create and assign an action to the current user using specified parameters

Param Type Details
type String

The action type. Can be one from "pickup", "delivery", "dropoff", "visit", "stopover" or "task"

lookupId String

The Action's desired lookupId

expectedPlaceAddress String

The address of the Action

expectedPlaceLatitude Number

The latitude of the Action

expectedPlaceLongitude Number

The longitude of the Action

Returns: Promise<any> Returns a Promise that resolves with a string representation of the Action’s JSON, or it gets rejected if an error ocurred.

completeAction(actionId)

Complete an action from the SDK by its ID

Param Type Details
actionId String

ID of the Action that will be marked as completed

Returns: Promise<any> Returns a Promise that resolves with an “OK” string if successful, or it gets rejected if an error ocurred.

completeActionWithLookupId(lookupId)

Complete an action from the SDK using Action’s lookupId as parameter

Param Type Details
lookupId String

Lookup ID of the Action that will be marked as completed

Returns: Promise<any> Returns a Promise that resolves with an “OK” string if successful, or it gets rejected if an error ocurred.

stopTracking()

Disable the SDK and stop tracking. Needs user setting (via getOrCreateUser() or setUserId()) first.

Returns: Promise<any> Returns a Promise that resolves with the an “OK” string if successful, or it gets rejected if an error ocurred. One example of an error is not setting a User with getOrCreateUser() or setUserId() before calling this function.
