location_platform_interface

See changelog on pub.dev

💥 Breaking changes

• LocationData.latitude and LocationData.longitude are now non-nullable (double instead of double?). Every platform implementation always sets both, so the nullability was never load-bearing; fromMap/fromJson now throw instead of silently producing a LocationData with null coordinates if given a map that omits them (#675).

Added

• LocationData.toJson(), LocationData.fromJson() and LocationData.copyWith().
• LocationData.isMock, populated on Apple platforms from CLLocation.sourceInformation.isSimulatedBySoftware (#796).
• LocationData.isProducedByAccessory, populated on Apple platforms from CLLocation.sourceInformation?.isProducedByAccessory (#914).
• LocationPlatform.isBackgroundPermissionGranted(), reporting whether background ("Allow all the time"/Always) location access has been granted, independent of foreground access (#538).
• LocationPlatform.getLastKnownLocation(), returning the most recently cached LocationData immediately, or null when none is available, without waiting for a fresh fix (#733).
• backgroundInterval parameter on changeSettings, an Android-only alternate update interval used while background mode is enabled (#1011).
• requireBackgroundPermission parameter on enableBackgroundMode (Android only; defaults to true, preserving current behavior). When false, skips the ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION prompt and relies on the foreground-service background-access exemption instead (#600).
• imageName parameter on changeNotificationOptions, for a background notification large icon resolved by drawable name (#856).
• iconBytes/imageBytes parameters on changeNotificationOptions, an alternative to iconName/imageName for callers that render an icon at runtime (e.g. from a Flutter IconData) instead of bundling a drawable resource (#1017).

• Bump minimum Dart version to 3.4, minimum Flutter version to 3.22

• Bump dependencies
