NativeScript background service stops working after app closes
I have problem with nativescript background service. I want to write application with background service. The service must be always run in background, even when the application will be stoped and closed.
I have used nativescript-android-utils for android intent services, but the service stops working after application closes. I have also tried to register broadcast receiver according to this but the result is same:
when app is closed, the service also stops working.
I want to write gps tracker background service and that's why I need to be the service always running in background.
Service code:
declare var com: any;
@JavaProxy("org.nativescript.PresleyApp.Test")
export class Test extends com.pip3r4o.android.app.IntentService
protected onHandleIntent(intent: android.content.Intent): void
geolocation.enableLocationRequest().then(function()
this.watchId = geolocation.watchLocation(
(loc) =>
if (loc)
const toast = Toast.makeText("Background Location: " + loc.latitude + " " + loc.longitude);
toast.show();
console.log("Background Location: " + loc.latitude + " " + loc.longitude);
,
(e) => e));
,
desiredAccuracy: Accuracy.high,
updateDistance: 0.1,
updateTime: 3000,
minimumUpdateTime: 100
);
, (e) => e));
);
Starting service with
const context = application.android.context;
const intent = new android.content.Intent();
intent.setClassName(context, "org.nativescript.PresleyApp.Test");
context.startService(intent);

If the service is stopped, it will be restarted automatically. Are you facing this issue in any specific version of Android? Did you follow the sample here?

I will try that later. Android version is 6.0.0. API 23. emulator: Genymotion. I have edited and pasted code in question

The sample not working on android 6.0.0 API 23, and even on 7.1.0 API 25

You must be able to see in the ReadMe that the sample uses apis those are available only in API level 26 and above (Android 8) so would not work on lower versions. But still the procedure is same.

So here is how I did my service,
import * as timer from "timer";
@JavaProxy("com.nativescript.DataSyncService")
class DataSyncService extends android.app.Service
private timerId: number;
onBind(): android.os.IBinder
return null;
onCreate(): void
super.onCreate();
if (!this.timerId)
this.timerId = timer.setInterval(()=>
// Run this every 4 hrs
, (1000 * 60 * 60 * 4));
onStartCommand(intent: android.content.Intent, flags: number, startId: number): number
return android.app.Service.START_STICKY;
onDestroy(): void
super.onDestroy();
timer.clearInterval(this.timerId);
Returning START_STICKY from onStartCommand
makes the system to restart the service when the process (app) is killed.
Thank you very much. It works now
