how to check gps status in phonegap?

Question

I want check whether GPS enabled or disabled in phonegap.

and display an alert when the GPS status changed

I have done this in android.

Answer 1

From the phonegap docs

var watchId = navigator.geolocation.watchPosition(geolocationSuccess,
                                              [geolocationError],
                                              [geolocationOptions]);

You might want to do something like this(untested)

navigator.geolocation.watchPosition(function(position) {
    alert(position.coords.latitude) //or logitude and etc
});

and if you want to stop watching

geolocation.clearWatch

Have a look at this or this, could be helpful.
