Native Wrapping - Geolocation API Spike about react-native

[nick]

Awesome - I'll give it a whirl on my Weather example. @vjeux mentioned that there is already a location API internally that they were planning on exposing soon - not sure what approach that will take.

[vjeux]

Our API looks like that right now FYI

class GeoLocation {
  static getCurrentPosition(geo_success, geo_error, geo_options)
  static watchPosition(callback)
  static clearWatch(watchID)
  static stopObserving()
}

Thanks @vjeux. Good to know you're using a similar approach.

Is exposing Facebook's Geolocation API near-future or does it make sense to keep working on mine for now? I don't plan to get it merged as my Obj-C is probably awful. ;)

Also, would this belong in React Core?

[vjeux]

We're going to port back our version to github soon, so we're unlikely going to use yours sorry :( I hope this was a good learning experience though. There's a bunch of other apis that will need to be bridged in a similar fashion so your skills won't be lost

[JoeStanton]

Hah no worries! I knew it wouldn't. Was just for the learning experience. Maybe I can assist with writing some docs when you start, and yeah I'll look at other API's as and when I need them.
