Location manager is a CLLocationManager wrapper written entirely in Swift
Updated for XCode 8.0 and Swift 3.0
Features:
Location update with closure & delegate support
Geocoding and reverse geocoding using Apple service

Sample code
Closure
Location update
var locationManager = LocationManager.sharedInstance
locationManager.showVerboseMessage = true
locationManager.autoUpdate = false
locationManager.startUpdatingLocationWithCompletionHandler { (latitude, longitude, status, verboseMessage, error) -> () in
println("lat:\(latitude) lon:\(longitude) status:\(status) error:\(error)")
println(verboseMessage)
}
Geocoding using Apple service
var locationManager = LocationManager.sharedInstance
locationManager.geocodeAddressString(address: "Apple Inc., Infinite Loop, Cupertino, CA 95014, United States") { (geocodeInfo,placemark,error) -> Void in
if(error != nil){
println(error)
}else{
println(geocodeInfo!)
}
}
Reverse Geocoding using Apple service
var locationManager = LocationManager.sharedInstance
locationManager.reverseGeocodeLocationWithLatLon(latitude: 37.331789, longitude: -122.029620) { (reverseGecodeInfo,placemark,error) -> Void in
if(error != nil){
println(error)
}else{
println(reverseGecodeInfo!)
}
}
Geocoding using Google service
var locationManager = LocationManager.sharedInstance
locationManager.geocodeUsingGoogleAddressString(address: "Apple Inc., Infinite Loop, Cupertino, CA 95014, United States") { (geocodeInfo,placemark,error) -> Void in
if(error != nil){
println(error)
}else{
println(geocodeInfo!)
}
}
Reverse Geocoding using Google service
var locationManager = LocationManager.sharedInstance
locationManager.reverseGeocodeLocationUsingGoogleWithLatLon(latitude: 37.331789, longitude: -122.029620) { (reverseGecodeInfo,placemark,error) -> Void in
if(error != nil){
println(error)
}else{
println(reverseGecodeInfo!)
}
}
Delegate
Location update
*class ViewController: UIViewController ,LocationManagerDelegate{....*
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
var locationManager = LocationManager.sharedInstance
locationManager.delegate = self
locationManager.startUpdatingLocation()
locationManager.stopUpdatingLocation()
}
func locationManagerStatus(status:NSString){
println(status)
}
func locationManagerReceivedError(error:NSString){
println(error)
}
func locationFoundGetAsString(latitude: NSString, longitude: NSString) {
}
func locationFound(latitude:Double, longitude:Double){
}
Verbose Message based on CLAuthorizationStatus
