Android SDK

The Radar SDK abstracts away cross-platform differences between location services, allowing you to add geofencing, location tracking, trip tracking, geocoding, and search to your apps with just a few lines of code.

Learn how to integrate the Android SDK below. You can also see the source and a detailed SDK reference on GitHub.

Install SDK

The best way to add the SDK to your project is via Gradle in Android Studio.

For details on the latest SDK releases, see the releases page on GitHub. You can also star ⭐️ and watch 👀 the repo.

The SDK is small and typically adds less than 500 KB to your compiled app.

Gradle (recommended)

The SDK is distributed using Maven Central.

Add the SDK to the dependencies section of your app's build.gradle file:

dependencies {    implementation 'io.radar:sdk:3.13.+'}

Add manually

You can also add the SDK to your project manually. Download the current release and unzip the package. The package contains an aar file. In Android Studio, add the SDK as a module using File > New Module > Import .JAR/.AAR Package.

Dependencies

The SDK depends on Google Play Services Location version 21.0.1 and higher, which will be automatically included as a transitive dependency by Gradle. Learn more about managing dependencies in Gradle here.

If you haven't already configured your project for Google Play Services, follow the instructions here.

As of version 3.8.0, the SDK uses play-services-location:21.0.1. If another dependency that depends on play-services-location is causing version conflicts, you can exclude the transitive dependencies and include the play-services-location dependency at the project level instead. We strongly recommend using 21.0.1 or higher.

As an alternative to Google Play Services, the SDK also optionally supports Huawei Mobile Services.

The SDK currently supports API level 16 or above.

Initialize SDK

When your app starts, in application onCreate(), initialize the SDK with your publishable API key, found on the Settings page.

Use your Test Publishable key for testing and non-production environments. Use your Live Publishable key for production environments.

Note that you should always use your publishable API keys, which are restricted in scope, in the SDK. Do not use your secret API keys, which are unrestricted in scope, in any client-side code.

Java

import io.radar.sdk.Radar;
public class MyApplication extends Application {
    @Override    public void onCreate() {        super.onCreate();
        Radar.initialize(this, "prj_test_pk...");    }
}

Kotlin

import io.radar.sdk.Radar
class MyApplication : Application() {
    override fun onCreate() {        super.onCreate()
        Radar.initialize(this, "prj_test_pk...")    }
}

Request permissions

Radar respects standard Android location permissions.

For foreground tracking or trip tracking with continuous mode, Radar requires the ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION permission for precise location and/or the ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION permission for approximate location. To start a foreground service, Radar requires the FOREGROUND_SERVICE permission. These permissions are automatically added by the SDK manifest along with the INTERNET, ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE, and RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED permissions.

For background tracking or geofencing with responsive mode, and if targeting API level 29 or above, Radar also requires the new ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION permission. You must add the ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION permission to your manifest manually:

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" />    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE" />    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION" />
</manifest>

To request foreground and background permissions:

Java

import android.Manifest;import android.app.AlertDialog;import android.content.DialogInterface;import android.content.pm.PackageManager;import android.os.Build;
import androidx.core.app.ActivityCompat;
import io.radar.sdk.Radar;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {  private final int FOREGROUND_LOCATION_PERMISSION_CODE = 1;  private final int BACKGROUND_LOCATION_PERMISSION_CODE = 2;
  protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);    Radar.initialize(this, "prj_test_pk_..");    requestLocationPermissions();  }
  private void requestLocationPermissions() {    if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {      if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT == Build.VERSION_CODES.Q) {        ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, new String[]{Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION}, BACKGROUND_LOCATION_PERMISSION_CODE);      } else {        ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, new String[]{Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION}, FOREGROUND_LOCATION_PERMISSION_CODE);      }    }  }
  @Override  public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, String[] permissions, int[] grantResults) {    super.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);    if (requestCode == FOREGROUND_LOCATION_PERMISSION_CODE) {      if (grantResults.length > 0 && grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED && Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.R) {        askPermissionForBackgroundUsage();      }      return;    }  }
  private void askPermissionForBackgroundUsage() {    if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(MainActivity.this, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION)) {      new AlertDialog.Builder(this)        .setTitle("Background location permissions needed")        .setMessage("Background location permissions needed, tap \"Allow all the time\" on the next screen")        .setPositiveButton("OK", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {          @Override          public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {            ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(MainActivity.this, new String[]{Manifest.permission.ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION}, BACKGROUND_LOCATION_PERMISSION_CODE);          }        })        .create()        .show();    }  }}

Kotlin

import android.Manifestimport android.app.AlertDialogimport android.content.pm.PackageManagerimport android.os.Build
import androidx.core.app.ActivityCompat
import io.radar.sdk.Radar
class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {  private val foregroundLocationPermissionsRequestCode = 1  private val backgroundLocationPermissionsRequestCode = 2
  override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)    Radar.initialize(this, "prj_test_pk_...")    requestLocationPermissions()  }
  private fun requestLocationPermissions() {    if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {      if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT == Build.VERSION_CODES.Q) {        ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, arrayOf(Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION), backgroundLocationPermissionsRequestCode)      } else {        ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, arrayOf(Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION), foregroundLocationPermissionsRequestCode)      }    }  }
  override fun onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode: Int, permissions: Array<String>, grantResults: IntArray) {    super.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults)    if (requestCode == foregroundLocationPermissionsRequestCode && grantResults.isNotEmpty() && grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED && Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.R) {      if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(this, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION)) {        AlertDialog.Builder(this)          .setTitle("Background location permissions needed")          .setMessage("Background location permission needed, tap \"Allow all the time\" on the next screen")          .setPositiveButton(            "OK"          ) { _, _ ->            ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, arrayOf(Manifest.permission.ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION), backgroundLocationPermissionsRequestCode)          }          .create()          .show()      }    }  }}

Build and run the app to make sure permissions prompts are displayed!

Not seeing permissions prompts? First, make sure you've added permissions to your manifest. Second, check your device settings to make sure you haven't already granted location permissions.

Foreground tracking

Once the user has granted foreground permissions, you can track the user's location in the foreground.

To track the user's location in the foreground, call:

Java

Radar.trackOnce(new RadarTrackCallback() {    @Override    public void onComplete(RadarStatus status, Location location, RadarEvent[] events, RadarUser user) {        // do something with location, events, user    }});

Kotlin

Radar.trackOnce { status, location, events, user ->    // do something with location, events, user}

You may provide an optional instance of RadarTrackCallback with an implementation of onComplete() that receives the request status, the user's location, the events generated, if any, and the user. The request status can be:

• RadarStatus.SUCCESS: success
• RadarStatus.ERROR_PUBLISHABLE_KEY: SDK not initialized
• RadarStatus.ERROR_PERMISSIONS: location permissions not granted
• RadarStatus.ERROR_LOCATION: location services error or timeout (10 seconds)
• RadarStatus.ERROR_NETWORK: network error or timeout (10 seconds)
• RadarStatus.ERROR_BAD_REQUEST: bad request (missing or invalid params)
• RadarStatus.ERROR_UNAUTHORIZED: unauthorized (invalid API key)
• RadarStatus.ERROR_PAYMENT_REQUIRED: payment required (organization disabled or usage exceeded)
• RadarStatus.ERROR_FORBIDDEN: forbidden (insufficient permissions)
• RadarStatus.ERROR_NOT_FOUND: not found
• RadarStatus.ERROR_RATE_LIMIT: too many requests (rate limit exceeded)
• RadarStatus.ERROR_SERVER: internal server error
• RadarStatus.ERROR_UNKNOWN: unknown error

Build and run the app, then find your user on the Users page! To trigger an event, you'll need to create a geofence if you haven't already. Not seeing your user on the Users page? Check status in the callback to see what went wrong.

Background tracking for geofencing

Once you have initialized the SDK and the user has authorized background permissions, you can start tracking the user's location in the background.

The SDK supports custom tracking options as well as three presets.

For geofencing, we recommend using RadarTrackingOptions.RESPONSIVE. This preset detects whether the device is stopped or moving. When moving, it tells the SDK to send location updates to the server every 2-3 minutes. When stopped, it tells the SDK to shut down to save battery. Once stopped, the device will need to move more than 100 meters to wake up and start moving again.

Assuming the user has authorized background permissions, background tracking will work even if the app has been backgrounded or killed, as Android location services will wake up the app to deliver events and the SDK uses JobScheduler to schedule network requests.

Note that location updates may be delayed significantly by Doze Mode, App Standby, and Background Location Limits, or if the device has connectivity issues, low battery, or wi-fi disabled.In practice, location updates may be sent to the server every 5-10 minutes while moving, faster if you power on the screen or if other apps are requesting location, and slower otherwise. These restrictions apply to all apps using location services, not just Radar.

Though we recommend using presets for most use cases, you can modify the presets. See the tracking options reference.

To start tracking for geofencing, call:

Java

Radar.startTracking(RadarTrackingOptions.RESPONSIVE);

Kotlin

Radar.startTracking(RadarTrackingOptions.RESPONSIVE)

To determine whether tracking has been started, call:

Java

Radar.isTracking();

Kotlin

Radar.isTracking()

To stop tracking (e.g., when the user logs out), call:

Java

Radar.stopTracking();

Kotlin

Radar.stopTracking()

You only need to call these methods once, as these settings will be persisted across app sessions.

To test, go for a walk or a drive! Not seeing location updates or events? Remember that, once stopped, the device will need to move more than 100 meters to wake up and start moving again. Also, check your device settings to make sure you've granted background location permissions.

Don't forget! You can always find your user on the Users page or events on the Events page. To trigger an event, you'll need to create a geofence if you haven't already.

Background tracking for trips

For trips, we recommend using RadarTrackingOptions.continuous. This preset tells the SDK to send location updates to the server every 30 seconds, regardless of whether the device is moving.

To avoid Background Location Limits, the continuous preset starts a foreground service with a notification while tracking. When the foreground service with a notification is running, only foreground permissions are required for tracking. See the tracking options reference to adjust the foreground service notification copy and behavior.

Tracking for the duration of a trip is started or updated by including tracking options in the startTrip call:

Java

Radar.startTrip(tripOptions, RadarTrackingOptions.CONTINUOUS, new Radar.RadarTripCallback() {  @Override    public void onComplete(@NonNull Radar.RadarStatus status, @Nullable RadarTrip trip, @Nullable RadarEvent[] events) {      if (status == Radar.RadarStatus.SUCCESS) {        // do something      } else {        // handle error      }    }  });

Kotlin

Radar.startTrip(tripOptions, RadarTrackingOptions.CONTINUOUS) { status, trip, events ->  if (status == Radar.RadarStatus.SUCCESS) {    // do something  } else {    // handle error  }}

If tracking was disabled before the trip started, it will stop after the trip ends. Otherwise, it will revert to the tracking options in use before the trip started:

Java

// Complete tripRadar.completeTrip(new Radar.RadarTripCallback() {    @Override    public void onComplete(Radar.RadarStatus radarStatus, RadarTrip radarTrip, RadarEvent[] radarEvents) {        // do something    }});
// Cancel tripRadar.cancelTrip(new Radar.RadarTripCallback() {    @Override    public void onComplete(Radar.RadarStatus radarStatus, RadarTrip radarTrip, RadarEvent[] radarEvents) {        // do something    }});

Kotlin

// Complete tripRadar.completeTrip { status, trip, events ->    // do something}
// Cancel tripRadar.cancelTrip { status, trip, events ->    // do something}

Learn more about starting, completing, and canceling trips in the trip tracking documentation.

Don't forget! You can always find your user on the Users page or events on the Events page. To trigger an event, you'll need to create a geofence or start a trip if you haven't already.

Mock tracking for testing

Can't go for a walk or a drive? You can simulate a sequence of location updates. For example, to simulate a sequence of 10 location updates every 3 seconds by car from an origin to a destination, call:

Java

Location origin = new Location("mock");origin.setLatitude(40.78382);origin.setLongitude(-73.97536);
Location destination = new Location("mock");destination.setLatitude(40.70390);destination.setLongitude(-73.98670);
Radar.mockTracking(    origin,    destination,    Radar.RadarRouteMode.CAR,    10,    3,    new RadarTrackCallback() {        @Override        public void onComplete(RadarStatus status, Location location, RadarEvent[] events, RadarUser user) {            // do something with location, events, user        }    });

Kotlin

val origin = Location("mock")origin.latitude = 40.78382origin.longitude = -73.97536
val destination = Location("mock")destination.latitude = 40.70390destination.longitude = -73.98670
Radar.mockTracking(    origin,    destination,    Radar.RadarRouteMode.CAR,    10,    3) { status, location, events, user ->    // do something with location, events, user}

Don't forget! You can always find your user on the Users page or events on the Events page. To trigger an event, you'll need to create a geofence if you haven't already.

Listening for events with a receiver

To listen for events, location updates, and errors client-side, create a class that extends RadarReceiver. Then, pass in an instance of your receiver when initializing the SDK in application onCreate().

Java

import io.radar.sdk.Radar;
public class MyApplication extends Application {
    @Override    public void onCreate() {        super.onCreate();
        MyRadarReceiver receiver = new MyRadarReceiver();        Radar.initialize(this, "prj_test_pk...", receiver, Radar.RadarLocationServicesProvider.GOOGLE);    }
}

Kotlin

import io.radar.sdk.Radar
class MyApplication : Application() {
    override fun onCreate() {        super.onCreate()
        val receiver = MyRadarReceiver()        Radar.initialize(this, "prj_test_pk...", receiver, Radar.RadarLocationServicesProvider.GOOGLE)    }
}

The receiver should be instantiated only once and set before tracking begins.

Your receiver should implement the following:

Java

public class MyRadarReceiver extends RadarReceiver {
    @Override    public void onEventsReceived(Context context, RadarEvent[] events, RadarUser user) {        // do something with events, user    }
    @Override    public void onLocationUpdated(Context context, Location location, RadarUser user) {        // do something with location, user    }
    @Override    public void onClientLocationUpdated(Context context, Location location, boolean stopped, RadarLocationSource source) {        // do something with location, stopped, source    }
    @Override    public void onError(Context context, RadarStatus status) {        // do something with status    }
    @Override    public void onLog(Context context, String message) {        // print message for debug logs    }
    @Override    public void onLocationPermissionStatusUpdated(context: Context,status: RadarLocationPermissionStatus) {      // do something with location permission status     }
}

Kotlin

class MyRadarReceiver: RadarReceiver() {
    override fun onEventsReceived(context: Context, events: Array<RadarEvent>, user: RadarUser?) {        // do something with events, user    }
    override fun onLocationUpdated(context: Context, location: Location, user: RadarUser) {        // do something with location, user    }
    override fun onClientLocationUpdated(context: Context, location: Location, stopped: Boolean, source: RadarLocationSource) {        // do something with location, stopped, source    }
    override fun onError(context: Context, status: RadarStatus) {        // do something with status    }
    override fun onLog(context: Context, message: String) {        // print message for debug logs    }
    overide fun onLocationPermissionStatusUpdated(context: Context,status: RadarLocationPermissionStatus) {      // do something with location permission status     }
}

To listen for events server-side instead, add a webhook or enable an integration.

Manual tracking

If you want to manage location services yourself, you can manually update the user's location instead by calling:

Java

Radar.trackOnce(    location,    new RadarTrackCallback() {        @Override        public void onComplete(RadarStatus status, Location location, RadarEvent[] events, RadarUser user) {            // do something with location, events, user        }    });

Kotlin

Radar.trackOnce(location) { status, location, events, user ->    // do something with location, events, user}

where location is a Location instance with a valid latitude, longitude, and accuracy.

Identify user

The SDK automatically collects installId (a GUID generated on fresh install) and deviceId (Android ID).

You can also assign a custom userId, also called External ID in the dashboard. To set a custom userId, call:

Java

Radar.setUserId(userId);

Kotlin

Radar.setUserId(userId)

where userId is a stable unique ID for the user.

Do not send any PII, like names, email addresses, or publicly available IDs, for userId. See privacy best practices for more information.

To set a dictionary of custom metadata for the user, call:

Java

Radar.setMetadata(metadata);

Kotlin

Radar.setMetadata(metadata)

where metadata is a JSONObject with up to 16 keys and values of type string, boolean, or number.

Finally, to set an optional description for the user, displayed in the dashboard, call:

Java

Radar.setDescription(description);

Kotlin

Radar.setDescription(description)

You only need to call these methods once, as these settings will be persisted across app sessions.

Learn more about when Radar creates new user records here.

Debug logging

By default, only critical errors are logged to the console. To enable debug logging, call:

Java

Radar.setLogLevel(Radar.RadarLogLevel.DEBUG);

Kotlin

Radar.setLogLevel(Radar.RadarLogLevel.DEBUG)

The Android SDK automatically logs lifecycle events without the additional setup required on iOS.

Contact your customer success manager to enable logging app lifecycle events.

Other APIs

The Android SDK also exposes APIs for beacons, anonymous context, geocoding, search, and distance.

Beacons

To range and monitor beacons, you must request Bluetooth permissions. If targeting API level 31 or above, both BLUETOOTH_CONNECT and BLUETOOTH_SCAN are required runtime permissions.

The following bluetooth permissions must be added to your manifest:

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH" />    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH_ADMIN" />    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH_CONNECT" />    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH_SCAN" />
</manifest>

To range beacons in the foreground, call:

Java

Radar.trackOnce(RadarTrackingOptionsDesiredAccuracy.HIGH, true, new RadarTrackCallback() {  @Override  public void onComplete(RadarStatus status, Location location, RadarEvent[] events, RadarUser user) {      // do something with user.beacons  }});

Kotlin

Radar.trackOnce(RadarTrackingOptionsDesiredAccuracy.HIGH, true) { status, location, events, user ->    // do something with user.beacons}

To monitor beacons in the background, update your tracking options:

Java

RadarTrackingOptions trackingOptions = RadarTrackingOptions.RESPONSIVE;trackingOptions.beacons = true;Radar.startTracking(trackingOptions);

Kotlin

val trackingOptions = RadarTrackingOptions.RESPONSIVEtrackingOptions.beacons = trueRadar.startTracking(trackingOptions)

Learn more about beacons.

Get location

Get a single location update without sending it to the server:

Java

Radar.getLocation(new RadarLocationCallback() {    @Override    public void onComplete(RadarStatus status, Location location, boolean stopped) {        // do something with location    }});

Kotlin

Radar.getLocation { status, location, stopped ->    // do something with location}

Context

With the context API, get context for a location without sending device or user identifiers to the server:

Java

Radar.getContext(new RadarContextCallback() {    @Override    public void onComplete(RadarStatus status, Location location, RadarContext context) {        // do something with context    }});

Kotlin

Radar.getContext { status, location, context ->    // do something with context}

Geocoding

With the forward geocoding API, geocode an address, converting address to coordinates:

Java

Radar.geocode(    "20 jay street brooklyn ny", // query    new RadarGeocodeCallback() {        @Override        public void onComplete(RadarStatus status, RadarAddress[] addresses) {            // do something with addresses        }    });

Kotlin

Radar.geocode("20 jay street brooklyn ny") { status, addresses ->    // do something with addresses}

With the reverse geocoding API, reverse geocode a location, converting coordinates to address:

Java

Radar.reverseGeocode(    location,    new RadarGeocodeCallback() {        @Override        public void onComplete(RadarStatus status, RadarAddress[] addresses) {            // do something with addresses        }    });

Kotlin

Radar.reverseGeocode(location) { status, addresses ->    // do something with addresses}

With the IP geocoding API, geocode the device's current IP address, converting IP address to city, state, and country:

Java

Radar.ipGeocode(new RadarIpGeocodeCallback() {    @Override    public void onComplete(RadarStatus status, RadarAddress address, boolean proxy) {        // do something with address, proxy    }});

Kotlin

Radar.ipGeocode { status, address, proxy ->    // do something with address, proxy}

Search

With the autocomplete API, autocomplete partial addresses and place names, sorted by relevance:

Java

Radar.autocomplete(    "brooklyn roasting", // query    near,    10, // limit    new RadarGeocodeCallback() {        @Override        public void onComplete(RadarStatus status, RadarAddress[] addresses) {            // do something with addresses        }    });

Kotlin

Radar.autocomplete(    "brooklyn roasting", // query    near,    10 // limit) { status, addresses ->    // do something with addresses}

With the geofence search API, search for geofences near a location, sorted by distance:

Java

Radar.searchGeofences(    near,    1000, // radius (meters)    {"store"}, // tags    null, //metadata    10, // limit    new RadarSearchGeofencesCallback() {        @Override        public void onComplete(RadarStatus status, Location location, RadarGeofence[] geofences) {            // do something with geofences        }    });

Kotlin

Radar.searchGeofences(    near,    1000, // radius (meters)    arrayOf("store"), // tags    null, // metadata    10 // limit) { status, location, geofences ->    // do something with geofences}

With the places search API, search for places near a location, sorted by distance:

Java

Radar.searchPlaces(    near,    1000, // radius (meters)    {"starbucks"}, // chains    null, // categories    null, //groups    10, // limit    new RadarSearchPlacesCallback() {      @Override      public void onComplete(RadarStatus status, Location location, RadarPlace[] places) {          // do something with places      }    });

Kotlin

Radar.searchPlaces(    near,    1000, // radius (meters)    arrayOf("starbucks"), // chains    null, // categories    null, // groups    10 // limit) { status, location, places ->    // do something with places}

With the address validation API (currently in beta), validate a structured address in the US or Canada:

Java

Radar.validateAddress(    address, // query    new RadarValidateAddressCallback() {        @Override        public void onComplete(RadarStatus status, RadarAddress address, ValidationResult result) {            // do something with validation result and address        }    });

Kotlin

Radar.validateAddress(address) { status, address, result ->    // do something with validation result and address}

Distance

With the distance API, calculate the travel distance and duration from an origin to a destination:

Java

Radar.getDistance(    origin,    destination,    EnumSet.of(RadarRouteMode.FOOT, RadarRouteMode.CAR),    RadarRouteUnits.IMPERIAL,    new RadarRouteCallback() {        @Override        public void onComplete(RadarStatus status, RadarRoutes routes) {            // do something with routes        }    });

Kotlin

Radar.getDistance(    origin,    destination,    EnumSet.of(RadarRouteMode.FOOT, RadarRouteMode.CAR),    RadarRouteUnits.IMPERIAL) { status, routes ->  // do something with routes}

Matrix

With the matrix API, calculate the travel distance and duration between multiple origins and destinations for up to 25 routes:

Java

Radar.getMatrix(    origins,    destinations,    RadarRouteMode.CAR,    RadarRouteUnits.IMPERIAL,    new RadarRouteCallback() {        @Override        public void onComplete(RadarStatus status, RadarRouteMatrix matrix) {            // do something with matrix.routeBetween(originIndex, destinationIndex)        }    });

Kotlin

Radar.getMatrix(    origins,    destinations,    RadarRouteMode.CAR,    RadarRouteUnits.IMPERIAL) { status, routes ->  // do something with matrix.routeBetween(originIndex, destinationIndex)}

Conversions

With the conversions API, log a conversion, such as a purchase or signup, to analyze alongside your app's location activity:

Java

Radar.logConversion(    name,    metadata,    new RadarLogConversionCallback() {        @Override        public void onComplete(RadarStatus status, RadarEvent event) {            // do something with the conversion event        }    })
// Conversion with revenueRadar.logConversion(    name,    revenue,    metadata,    new RadarLogConversionCallback() {        @Override        public void onComplete(RadarStatus status, RadarEvent event) {            // do something with the conversion event        }    })

Kotlin

Radar.logConversion(    name,    metadata,) { status, event ->    // do something with the conversion event}
// Conversion with revenueRadar.logConversion(    name,    revenue,    metadata,) { status, event ->    // do something with the conversion event}

Notifications

With setNotificationOptions, set the icon and the background color of foreground service and event notifications:

Java

// Set both foreground service and event notifications
JSONObject notificationOptions = new JSONObject();try {  notificationOptions.put("iconString", "icon_1");  notificationOptions.put("iconColor", "color_1");} catch (JSONException e) {  e.printStackTrace();}
Radar.setNotificationOptions(RadarNotificationsOptions.fromJson(notificationOptions));
// Or, set the foreground service notification and event notifications separately
JSONObject notificationOptions = new JSONObject();try {  notificationOptions.put("foregroundServiceIconString", "icon_1");  notificationOptions.put("foregroundServiceIconColor", "color_1");  notificationOptions.put("eventIconString", "icon_2");  notificationOptions.put("eventIconColor", "color_2");} catch (JSONException e) {  e.printStackTrace();}
Radar.setNotificationOptions(RadarNotificationsOptions.fromJson(notificationOptions));

Kotlin

// Set both foreground service and event notifications
Radar.setNotificationOptions(RadarNotificationsOptions(  "icon_1", // iconString  "color_1", // iconColor))
// Or, set the foreground service notification and event notifications separately
Radar.setNotificationOptions(RadarNotificationsOptions(  foregroundServiceIconString = "icon_2",  foregroundServiceIconColor = "color_2",  eventIconString = "icon_3",  eventIconColor = "color_3",))

Huawei

By default, the SDK depends on Google Play Services Location. However, you can use Huawei Mobile Services Location Kit instead.

If you haven't already configured your project for Huawei Mobile Services, follow the instructions here.

Then, add the dependency to your app's build.gradle file:

dependencies {    implementation 'com.huawei.hms:location:6.4.0.300'}

Finally, pass in RadarLocationServicesProvider.HUAWEI when you initialize the SDK:

Java

Radar.initialize(this, publishableKey, receiver, RadarLocationServicesProvider.HUAWEI);

Kotlin

Radar.initialize(context, publishableKey, receiver, RadarLocationServicesProvider.HUAWEI)
