This repository provides two Legato apps. combainLocation.adef provides a service for converting radio scan results into a location using an HTTP API provided by combain.com. combainCli.adef is a simple command line application that performs a WiFi scan and then uses the service app to resolve a location.
config set combainLocation:/ApiKey [YOUR_API_KEY_FROM_COMBAIN.COM]
- Include the apps in your .sdef and also add to your
commands
section like this:
commands:
{
combain = combainCli:/bin/combain
}
- Ensure that your target has a connection to the Internet. Either use
cm data connect
or something similar. The app will not attempt to bring up a connection on its own. - Run
combain -w
on the target to initiate a WiFi scan and resolve a location.
- Currently only WiFi is supported, by the Legato service, but combain.com supports many other scan types.
- Many apps can bind to the service and build up independent requests simultaneously, but only one request will be in flight at a time. In practice, this shouldn't be a problem for an embedded device.
