I have a latitude/longitude location that I want to convert to the location name String in Swift. What is the best way to do this? i believe it's best to use the reverseGeocodeLocation function but not exactly sure how to. This is what I have so far:
func locationManager(manager: CLLocationManager!, didUpdateLocations locations: [AnyObject]!) {
if (locationFixAchieved == false) {
locationFixAchieved = true
var locationArray = locations as NSArray
var locationObj = locationArray.lastObject as CLLocation
var coord = locationObj.coordinate
var latitude = coord.latitude
var longitude = coord.longitude
getCurrentWeatherData("\(longitude)", latitude: "\(latitude)")
reverseGeocodeLocation(location:coord, completionHandler: { (<#[AnyObject]!#>, <#NSError!#>) -> Void in
<#code#>
})
}
}
func reverseGeocodeLocation(location: CLLocation!, completionHandler: CLGeocodeCompletionHandler!){
}
You need to write the code like this:
geocoder.reverseGeocodeLocation(currentLocation, completionHandler: {
placemarks, error in
if error == nil && placemarks.count > 0 {
self.placeMark = placemarks.last as? CLPlacemark
self.adressLabel.text = "\(self.placeMark!.thoroughfare)\n\(self.placeMark!.postalCode) \(self.placeMark!.locality)\n\(self.placeMark!.country)"
self.manager.stopUpdatingLocation()
}
})
