@transistorsoft/background-geolocation-types

Shared TypeScript type definitions and generated API documentation for Transistor Software’s Background Geolocation SDKs:

  • React Native
  • Capacitor
  • Cordova

This package centralizes all public TypeScript interfaces, enums, utility types, and TypeDoc‑generated documentation shared across platform SDKs.
It contains types only — no runtime code.


📦 Installation

Install as a development dependency:

npm install @transistorsoft/background-geolocation-types --save-dev
yarn add -D @transistorsoft/background-geolocation-types
pnpm add -D @transistorsoft/background-geolocation-types

🎯 Purpose

This package exists to:

  1. Provide strict, shared TypeScript types across all Background Geolocation SDKs.
  2. Serve as the source for Typedoc documentation.
  3. Ensure consistent API signatures across React Native, Capacitor, and Cordova.

This avoids duplication and keeps all platform SDKs perfectly in sync.


📘 Using the Types

Typically, consuming SDKs re‑export all public types:

import BackgroundGeolocation, {
  Config,
  GeoConfig,
  HttpConfig,
  PersistMode,
  Location,
  State
} from '{{pluginName}}';

If desired, types can also be imported directly:

import type { Location, GeofenceEvent, PersistMode } 
  from '@transistorsoft/background-geolocation-types';

📚 Documentation

Generate API docs using:

pnpm run docs

This runs TypeDoc with the custom Transistorsoft plugins:

  • typedoc-plugin-templates
  • typedoc-plugin-gitlink
  • typedoc-plugin-mediaplayer
  • typedoc-plugin-site

Docs output to:

./docs

🛠️ Development

Build the project:

pnpm run clean && pnpm run build

Watch mode:

pnpm run watch

  • Definitions remain platform‑agnostic.
  • Changes reflect the APIs of all supported SDKs.
