It has to be possible. Probably someone already posted it, but I couldn't google it properly. The closest comes this python script:
Which actually prints out the location but after that it does not refresh it, even if it is run multiple times. Is python really needed? If so, I'd like a python script which actually re-polls GPS. But I would prefer shell script. Is it possible?Code:import location import gobject def on_error(control, error, data): print "location error: %d... quitting" % error data.quit() def on_changed(device, data): if not device: return if device.fix: if (device.fix[1] & location.GPS_DEVICE_LATLONG_SET) and (device.fix[1] & location.GPS_DEVICE_TIME_SET) and not (device.status & location.GPS_DEVICE_STATUS_NO_FIX): print "lat = %f, long = %f" % device.fix[4:6] data.stop() def on_stop(control, data): print "quitting" data.quit() def start_location(data): data.start() return False loop = gobject.MainLoop() control = location.GPSDControl.get_default() device = location.GPSDevice() control.set_properties(preferred_method=location.METHOD_USER_SELECTED, preferred_interval=location.INTERVAL_DEFAULT) control.connect("error-verbose", on_error, loop) device.connect("changed", on_changed, control) control.connect("gpsd-stopped", on_stop, loop) gobject.idle_add(start_location, control) loop.run()
