Hi,

I tried installing the plugin inside a Capacitor 4 app on Android. Unfortunately, the app didn't even start. Maybe it needs to be updated to be compatible?

Thanks,
Patrik

Hi, I saw that there is a beta version for v5 in NPM: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@proteansoftware/capacitor-start-navigation/v/5.0.0-beta1

I didn't find any announcement or issue in this repository so far on Capacitor v5 support.
Are you planning to release full support soon or are there any outstanding issues that still need to be fixed?

Thanks for the work on this!

Android extra step deprecated on sdk 30, you have to do like this:

import com.getcapacitor.BridgeActivity;
import com.servicesight.capacitor.startnavigation.StartNavigationPlugin;

public class MainActivity extends BridgeActivity {
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        registerPlugin(StartNavigationPlugin.class);  
    }
}

Thanks for the plugin!!!

Is it possible to add a selection of maps?
e.g: I prefer to use Google map or Waze on my iOS instead of the Apple Maps

Hi, Capacitor released v6 today

Are you planning to release a new version soon ?

Thanks in advance

after migration to capacitor V8
we have pb
npm ERR! Could not resolve dependency:
npm ERR! peer @capacitor/core@"^5.0.0" from @proteansoftware/[email protected]

Not too familiar with android these days but it looks like there is an issue with androidx. The latest ionic cli generates using androidx dependencies so this plugin does not work.

Hi there.

I am having issues with the address property causing the navigation on Android with Google maps to not work at all. Specifically the address I am investigating is Degnevænget 7, 3600 Frederikssund, DK.

Originally I started the navigation like this:

const address = `${this.contact.street}, ${this.contact.postalCode} ${this.contact.city}`;
StartNavigation.launchMapsApp({
  longitude: this.contact.location[0],
  latitude: this.contact.location[1],
  name: address
});

For the most part, this worked with version 4.1.0-alpha. However, on Android with Google maps, this would navigate to Degnevænget 9 instead of Degnevænget 7(probably because the houses are close and destination is based on coords).

Because of this, I switched to version 4.2.0 and started testing with the address property. So now I do this instead:

StartNavigation.launchMapsApp({
  longitude: this.contact.location[0],
  latitude: this.contact.location[1],
  address: {
    street: this.contact.street, // Degnevænget 7
    postalCode: this.contact.postalCode, // 3600
    city: this.contact.city,  // Frederikssund
    state: null,
    country: 'Denmark' // Hardcoded for now, because what we have is countrycode (DK)
  }
});

However, when I do this, the map opens but navigation in the map does not. It opens up in a completely fresh state. 🤨
The console log outputs this:

Based on a quick review, it seems possible to support address instead of lat/long for both android & ios.

Is this functionality something you'd be open to adding to this repository/accept a pull request for?

Hello !

Is it possible to add in the StartNavigationOptions a mode of transportation ?

e.g: I prefer to launch directly the navigation app in cycling mode instead of driving mode.

Thanks a lot !
