Xamarin Plugin.Geolocator not working

Question

I tried to get the current location of the user by using the following code in Shared Code Library.

Source of the project is available here at Dropbox link

using System;
using System.Diagnostics;
using Plugin.Geolocator;
using Plugin.Geolocator.Abstractions;

namespace SampleApp
{
    public class LocationManager
    {
        private DateTimeOffset timestamp;

        private double latitude;

        private double longitude;

        IGeolocator locator;

        public LocationManager()
        {
            asyncInitLocation();
        }

        private async void asyncInitLocation()
        {
            try
            {
                locator = CrossGeolocator.Current;
                locator.DesiredAccuracy = 50;

                if (locator.IsGeolocationEnabled)
                {
                    var position = await locator.GetPositionAsync(timeoutMilliseconds: 20000);
                    timestamp = position.Timestamp;
                    latitude = position.Latitude;
                    longitude = position.Longitude;
                }
                else 
                {
                    Debug.WriteLine("Geolocation is disabled!");
                }
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                Debug.WriteLine("Unable to get location, may need to increase timeout: " + ex);
            }
        }

        public DateTimeOffset getTimestamp()
        {
            return this.timestamp;
        }

        public double getLatitude()
        {
            return this.latitude;
        }

        public double getLongitude()
        {
            return this.longitude;
        }

        public void refresh()
        {
            asyncInitLocation();
        }
    }
}

I am getting the below error. Google didn't help me!

Unable to get location, may need to increase timeout: System.NotImplementedException: This functionality is not implemented in the portable version of this assembly.  You should reference the NuGet package from your main application project in order to reference the platform-specific implementation.

Update: packages.config file looks like this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<packages>
  <package id="Microsoft.Bcl" version="1.1.10" targetFramework="portable-net45+win+wp80+MonoTouch10+MonoAndroid10+xamarinmac20+xamarintvos10+xamarinwatchos10+xamarinios10" />

Now I get the below error message:

Am I missing something? I have added the plugins to the project using nuget.

Answer 1

我有同样的错误，我用clean-solution解决然后重建解决方案，并确保将依赖项添加到所有proyects

Answer 2

After re-testing your issue, I've created a new Shared Project and added the Geolocator.Plugin on Android Project .

NOTE :

The plugin documentation says:

The ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION & ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION permissions are required, but the library will automatically add this for you. Additionally, if your users are running Marshmallow the Plugin will automatically prompt them for runtime permissions.

But I have to manually add this permission on Android.

Manifest looks like:

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:versionCode="1" android:versionName="1.0" package="pt.sushiathome.shared_geolocator">
    <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="15" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
    <application android:label="shared.geolocator">
    </application>
</manifest>

MainActivity:

Button button = FindViewById<Button>(Resource.Id.myButton);

button.Click += async delegate
{
    try
    {
        var locator = CrossGeolocator.Current;
        locator.DesiredAccuracy = 50;

        if (locator.IsGeolocationEnabled)
        {
            var position = await locator.GetPositionAsync(timeoutMilliseconds: 10000);
            position.ToString();
        }
        else
        {
            System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("Geolocation is disabled!");
        }
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("Unable to get location, may need to increase timeout: " + ex);
    }
};

Just placed a breakpoint in position.ToString(); and I got the location. (tested in emulator and real device.)

NOTE2:

Try to switch on the GPS in emulator:
