please provide abit more information

[lmahmutov]

	for _, modem := range modems {
		location, err := modem.GetLocation()
		if err != nil {
			panic(err)
		}
		gpsraw, err := location.GetCurrentLocation()
		if err != nil {
			panic(err)
		}
		fmt.Println("GPS Raw Data:", gpsraw)
	}

return every time only location based on CID but mmcli show GpsRaw location

sometimes it takes some time until a location is received/populated via dbus. have you tried to make a loop and wait certain time? Have you tried location.GetLocation() ?

To be honest, I havent tested it deeply with modem manager, as I always used geoclue2 (I also made a go wrapper: https://github.com/maltegrosse/go-geoclue2 )

[lmahmutov]

location.GetLocation() --- get empty response.

But if i request location via DBUS i recieve normal and full answer

[maltegrosse]

Then there is probably an issue with my wrapper, have you tried to add some breakpoints there? https://github.com/maltegrosse/go-modemmanager/blob/master/ModemLocation.go#L316

[lmahmutov]

Code entered here https://github.com/maltegrosse/go-modemmanager/blob/master/ModemLocation.go#L342 but ok false and tmpMap empty

[maltegrosse]

have you tried do wrap it in some loop and query it every 30 sec for 2-5 min? the dbus path are correct in my implementation? (I currently dont have a device around to test it on my side, sorry)

[lmahmutov]

Where i can see DBUS PATCH?

[maltegrosse]

https://github.com/maltegrosse/go-modemmanager/blob/master/ModemLocation.go#L17

this one defines the path

[lmahmutov]

it's true

[maltegrosse]

can you check the output of res? https://github.com/maltegrosse/go-modemmanager/blob/master/ModemLocation.go#L257 perhaps some issue with parsing

[lmahmutov]

Issue here. https://github.com/maltegrosse/go-modemmanager/blob/master/ModemLocation.go#L342 i added

fmt.Println(" GPSRAW_CHECK ", element.String())

for view dbus.element and recieved

GPSRAW_CHECK  {"altitude": <@d 169>, "latitude": <@d 35.75443335>, "longitude": <@d 32.01379205>, "utc-time": <"094509.0">}

[maltegrosse]

weird, as it should convert map[string]interface{} can you try to cast it to map[string]float64?

[lmahmutov]

element.Value return

map[altitude:@d 151.3 latitude:@d 35.75437328333334 longitude:@d 32.01384675 utc-t
ime:"095457.0"]

[maltegrosse]

but you mentioned the tmpmap is empty: https://github.com/maltegrosse/go-modemmanager/blob/master/ModemLocation.go#L342

that means it something wrong with the casting.

[lmahmutov]

Value is not a map[string]interface{}

[lmahmutov]

i realy dont now why it's not cast to map. I realised it without map...

				re := regexp.MustCompile(`<@d (-?\d+\.?\d*)>`)
				processedInput := re.ReplaceAllString(element.String(), "$1")
				processedInput = strings.ReplaceAll(processedInput, "<\"", "\"")
				processedInput = strings.ReplaceAll(processedInput, "\">", "\"")

				var location Location
				err := json.Unmarshal([]byte(processedInput), &location)
				if err != nil {
					return locs, err
				}

				var gpsRaw GpsRawLocation
				// Parse timestamp ("06": Year, "01": Zero Month, "02": Zero Day, "15": Hour, "04": Zero Minute, "05": Zero Second)
				t, err := time.Parse("150405", location.UtcTime)
				if err != nil {
					return locs, err
				}
				now := time.Now().UTC()
				// workaround as date is missing
				t = t.AddDate(now.Year(), int(now.Month()), now.Day())
				gpsRaw.UtcTime = t
				gpsRaw.Altitude = location.Altitude
				gpsRaw.Latitude = location.Latitude
				gpsRaw.Longitude = location.Longitude
				locs.GpsRaw = gpsRaw
				```
