Set device location (FR)

Perfecto Command

mobile:location:set

Purpose

Sets the device location. This enables testing a location-aware app that uses location services without moving the device from place to place to generate location data.

The location is supplied as one of the following: Full (street, city, state, country) or partial address OR Latitude, Longitude pair

To set the location via address: This requires using Google Geocoding. For example: 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA.

To set the location via GPS: Many applications supply GPS coordinates when given an address following Google's Geocoding format. For example: Google Maps yields the GPS coordinates 43.642752 (latitude), -79.386981 (longitude) - decimal degrees - for the address "1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA."

When you obtain GPS coordinates, you can set the device location via the Set device location command.
