I was looking for this, too, and failed to find one... So, I wrote one!
It's pretty simple at the moment, but it seems to basically work. I called it get-location, and you can get it from github (follow the link, above).
For the moment, I just print out the second location I receive from the service (I skip the first one, since it can be cached and old – in a future version, perhaps this will be configurable, or it's an easy hack (change the hits
check to be > 0
, instead of > 1
) in the code, if you don't want to wait for that (I may or may not change it soon).
Anyway, it then prints out the results, like so (note: location data here has been changed to something made up):
$ ./get-location
Final location: <+12.34567890, +12.34567890> +/- 176.00m (speed 0.00 mps / course -1.00) @ 2012-04-10 13:57:53 +0200
Another TODO item is to add other formats, and/or let you specify your own. I may add this soon, or I may add it later. Or: Send me a pull request. :) (Feature requests and bug reports also welcome, preferably via the github system. Also, check the README on github to see what I've already thought of.)
I hope you (and others) find this helpful.
EDIT: Now with command-line options and a few different output formats.
