Running a periodic service/ task/ function in mobile development on an android device

I am trying to collect location data from my own android phone for a project, but so far I'm not successful in letting functions run in the background.
I have tried the following:
Run repeated functions OnSleep()
This process automatically stopped after a few minutes
Use a Foreground Service with a repeated function inside of it
This is what I attempted with my Foreground Service:
AndroidManifest.xml
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE" />
MainActivity.cs
[Activity(Label = "LocationApp", Icon = "#mipmap/icon", Theme = "#style/MainTheme", MainLauncher = true, ConfigurationChanges = ConfigChanges.ScreenSize | ConfigChanges.Orientation | ConfigChanges.UiMode | ConfigChanges.ScreenLayout | ConfigChanges.SmallestScreenSize)]
public class MainActivity : global::Xamarin.Forms.Platform.Android.FormsAppCompatActivity
{
public static Activity ActivityCurrent { get; private set;}
protected override void OnCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
ActivityCurrent = this;
base.OnCreate(savedInstanceState);
Xamarin.Essentials.Platform.Init(this, savedInstanceState);
global::Xamarin.Forms.Forms.Init(this, savedInstanceState);
LoadApplication(new App());
RequestPermissions();
}
private async void RequestPermissions()
{
await CrossPermissions.Current.RequestPermissionAsync<StoragePermission>();
await CrossPermissions.Current.RequestPermissionAsync<LocationAlwaysPermission>();
}
public override void OnRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, string[] permissions, [GeneratedEnum] Android.Content.PM.Permission[] grantResults)
{
PermissionsImplementation.Current.OnRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);
base.OnRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);
}
}
TracingServices.cs
[assembly:Xamarin.Forms.Dependency(typeof(LocationApp.Droid.TracingServices))]
namespace LocationApp.Droid
{
[Service(ForegroundServiceType = Android.Content.PM.ForegroundService.TypeDataSync)]
public class TracingServices : Service,ITracingServices
{
private List<Timer> Timerlist = new List<Timer>();
private double initialLon;
private double initialLat;
public override IBinder OnBind(Intent intent)
{
throw new NotImplementedException();
}
[return: GeneratedEnum]
public override StartCommandResult OnStartCommand(Intent intent, [GeneratedEnum] StartCommandFlags flags, int startId)
{
if(intent.Action=="START_SERVICE")
{
Console.WriteLine("Started service");
RegisterNotification();
TrackLocation();
}
else if(intent.Action=="STOP_SERVICE")
{
Console.WriteLine("Stopping service");
StopForeground(true);
StopSelfResult(startId);
}
return StartCommandResult.NotSticky;
}
public void Start()
{
Intent startService = new Intent(MainActivity.ActivityCurrent, typeof(TracingServices));
startService.SetAction("START_SERVICE");
MainActivity.ActivityCurrent.StartService(startService);
}
public void Stop()
{
Intent stopIntent = new Intent(MainActivity.ActivityCurrent, this.Class);
stopIntent.SetAction("STOP_SERVICE");
MainActivity.ActivityCurrent.StartService(stopIntent);
// stop the timer
foreach (Timer timer in Timerlist)
{
timer.Stop();
}
}
private void RegisterNotification()
{
NotificationChannel channel = new NotificationChannel("Servicechannel", "Service demo", NotificationImportance.Max);
NotificationManager manager = (NotificationManager)MainActivity.ActivityCurrent.GetSystemService(Context.NotificationService);
manager.CreateNotificationChannel(channel);
Notification notification = new Notification.Builder(this, "Servicechannel")
.SetContentTitle("Testing service")
.SetOngoing(true)
.Build();
StartForeground(100, notification);
}
private async void TrackLocation()
{
// track initial coordinates
Location result = await Geolocation.GetLocationAsync();
initialLat = result.Latitude;
initialLon = result.Longitude;
// set timer to launch every 3 minutes
Timer timer = new Timer(3 * 60 * 1000);
timer.Elapsed += (sender, e) => OnTimedEvent(sender, e, initialLat, initialLon);
timer.AutoReset = true;
timer.Enabled = true;
Timerlist.Add(timer);
}
private static async void OnTimedEvent(object source, ElapsedEventArgs e, double lat, double lon)
{
Location result = await Geolocation.GetLocationAsync();
Console.WriteLine($"Final stuff: {result.Latitude},{result.Longitude},{result.Timestamp.DateTime:dd/MM},{result.Timestamp.DateTime:HH:mm}");
await App.Database.SaveLocationAsync(new LocationData
{
Latitude = result.Latitude - lat,
Longitude = result.Longitude - lon,
Day = result.Timestamp.DateTime.ToString("dd/MM"),
Time = result.Timestamp.DateTime.ToString("HH:mm")
});
}
}
}
MainPage.xaml.cs function
async private void ToggleTracking(object send, EventArgs args)
{
var status = await SecureStorage.GetAsync("Tracking");
// if the status starts as false, set it to true, update the button text and execute the Foreground service
if (status != "true")
{
await SecureStorage.SetAsync("Tracking", "true");
ToggleButton.Text = "Stop tracking";
DependencyService.Get<ITracingServices>().Start();
}
// if the status starts as true, set it to false, update the button text and end the Foreground service
else
{
await SecureStorage.SetAsync("Tracking", "false");
ToggleButton.Text = "Start tracking";
DependencyService.Get<ITracingServices>().Stop();
}
}
I am sure the ToggleTracking function is called, as my device displays the Foreground Service as being active, but the function isn't being executed.
Is it possible to edit the Foreground Service so that it still runs the function with an interval or is there a different option that can run functions at an interval in the background?

Changing the order of operations in the TracingServices class has caused the application to be called, though not with regular interval. Sometimes it executes, sometimes it doesn't for a few intervals. This is how I changed the order:
[Service(ForegroundServiceType = Android.Content.PM.ForegroundService.TypeDataSync)]
public class TracingServices : Service,ITracingServices
{
private List<Timer> Timerlist = new List<Timer>();
private double initialLon;
private double initialLat;
public override IBinder OnBind(Intent intent)
{
throw new NotImplementedException();
}
[return: GeneratedEnum]
public override StartCommandResult OnStartCommand(Intent intent, [GeneratedEnum] StartCommandFlags flags, int startId)
{
if(intent.Action=="START_SERVICE")
{
Console.WriteLine("Started service");
RegisterNotification();
}
else if(intent.Action=="STOP_SERVICE")
{
Console.WriteLine("Stopping service");
StopForeground(true);
StopSelfResult(startId);
}
return StartCommandResult.NotSticky;
}
public void Start()
{
Intent startService = new Intent(MainActivity.ActivityCurrent, typeof(TracingServices));
startService.SetAction("START_SERVICE");
MainActivity.ActivityCurrent.StartService(startService);
}
public void Stop()
{
Intent stopIntent = new Intent(MainActivity.ActivityCurrent, this.Class);
stopIntent.SetAction("STOP_SERVICE");
MainActivity.ActivityCurrent.StartService(stopIntent);
// stop the timer
foreach (Timer timer in Timerlist)
{
timer.Stop();
}
}
private void RegisterNotification()
{
NotificationChannel channel = new NotificationChannel("Servicechannel", "Service demo", NotificationImportance.Max);
NotificationManager manager = (NotificationManager)MainActivity.ActivityCurrent.GetSystemService(Context.NotificationService);
manager.CreateNotificationChannel(channel);
Notification notification = new Notification.Builder(this, "Servicechannel")
.SetContentTitle("Testing service")
.SetOngoing(true)
.Build();
StartForeground(100, notification);
TrackLocation();
}
private async void TrackLocation()
{
Console.WriteLine("Tracking called");
// track initial coordinates
Location result = await Geolocation.GetLocationAsync();
initialLat = result.Latitude;
initialLon = result.Longitude;
// set timer to launch every 3 minutes
Timer timer = new Timer(3 * 60 * 1000);
timer.Elapsed += (sender, e) => OnTimedEvent(sender, e, initialLat, initialLon);
timer.AutoReset = true;
timer.Enabled = true;
Console.WriteLine("Timer set");
Timerlist.Add(timer);
}
private static async void OnTimedEvent(object source, ElapsedEventArgs e, double lat, double lon)
{
Location result = await Geolocation.GetLocationAsync();
Console.WriteLine($"Final stuff: {result.Latitude},{result.Longitude},{result.Timestamp.DateTime:dd/MM},{result.Timestamp.DateTime:HH:mm}");
await App.Database.SaveLocationAsync(new LocationData
{
Latitude = result.Latitude - lat,
Longitude = result.Longitude - lon,
Day = result.Timestamp.DateTime.ToString("dd/MM"),
Time = result.Timestamp.DateTime.ToString("HH:mm")
});
}
}
If there is a way for the function to fire every time at an interval, I'd love to hear it.

Android Xamarin - Closed app notification

I'd like to create notificiation in my app, which is going to be showed in 10 seconds. It works well, when application is running, but when I close the application, notification is not showed. Here is my code:
My notification service:
[Service]
class NotifyEvent : IntentService
{
protected override void OnHandleIntent(Intent intent)
{
PendingIntent pIntent = PendingIntent.GetActivity(this, 0, intent, 0);
Notification.Builder builder = new Notification.Builder(this);
builder.SetContentTitle(Resources.GetString(Resource.String.NotifikaceNadpis));
builder.SetContentText(Resources.GetString(Resource.String.NotifikaceText));
builder.SetSmallIcon(Resource.Drawable.Icon);
builder.SetPriority(1);
builder.SetDefaults(NotificationDefaults.Sound | NotificationDefaults.Vibrate);
builder.SetWhen(Java.Lang.JavaSystem.CurrentTimeMillis());
Notification notifikace = builder.Build();
NotificationManager notificationManager = GetSystemService(Context.NotificationService) as NotificationManager;
const int notificationId = 0;
notificationManager.Notify(notificationId, notifikace);
}
}
Class, which starts notification:
public class Notificator
{
public void ShowNotification(Context context)
{
Intent intent = new Intent(context, typeof(NotifyEvent));
var pendingServiceIntent = PendingIntent.GetService(context, 0, intent, PendingIntentFlags.UpdateCurrent);
AlarmManager alarm = (AlarmManager)context.GetSystemService(Context.AlarmService);
alarm.Set(AlarmType.ElapsedRealtimeWakeup, SystemClock.ElapsedRealtime() + 10000, pendingServiceIntent);
}
}
Method in activity:
Notificator not = new Notificator();
not.ShowNotification(this);
My Activity:
[Activity(Label = "Nastavení")]
public class SettingsActivity : Activity
{
protected override void OnCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
base.OnCreate(savedInstanceState);
// Create your application here
SetContentView(Resource.Layout.Settings);
Button vynulovatButton = FindViewById<Button>(Resource.Id.buttonRestartDne);
vynulovatButton.Click += VynulovatDen;
}
...
protected void VynulovatDen(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Notificator not = new Notificator();
not.ShowNotification(this);
}
}
Thanks for every help.

you can try this.
protected override void OnDestroy()
{
Notificator not = new Notificator();
not.ShowNotification(this);
base.OnDestroy();
}

You should keep your service alive when you destroy your application.
add return StartCommandResult.Sticky; in the OnStartCommand method.
start the service OnTaskRemoved function.
Create your service with the Service interface, the IntentService is for Time-consuming operation.
class NotifyEvent : Service
{
[return: GeneratedEnum]
public override StartCommandResult OnStartCommand(Intent intent, [GeneratedEnum] StartCommandFlags flags, int startId)
{
new Task(() => {
PendingIntent pIntent = PendingIntent.GetActivity(this, 0, intent, 0);
Notification.Builder builder = new Notification.Builder(this);
builder.SetContentTitle("hello");
builder.SetContentText("hello");
builder.SetSmallIcon(Resource.Drawable.Icon);
builder.SetPriority(1);
builder.SetDefaults(NotificationDefaults.Sound | NotificationDefaults.Vibrate);
builder.SetWhen(Java.Lang.JavaSystem.CurrentTimeMillis());
Notification notifikace = builder.Build();
NotificationManager notificationManager = GetSystemService(Context.NotificationService) as NotificationManager;
const int notificationId = 0;
notificationManager.Notify(notificationId, notifikace);
}).Start();
return StartCommandResult.Sticky;
}
public override IBinder OnBind(Intent intent)
{
return null;
}
public override void OnTaskRemoved(Intent rootIntent)
{
Intent restartService = new Intent(ApplicationContext, typeof(NotifyEvent));
restartService.SetPackage(PackageName);
var pendingServiceIntent = PendingIntent.GetService(ApplicationContext, 0, restartService, PendingIntentFlags.UpdateCurrent);
AlarmManager alarm = (AlarmManager)ApplicationContext.GetSystemService(Context.AlarmService);
alarm.Set(AlarmType.ElapsedRealtime, SystemClock.ElapsedRealtime() + 1000, pendingServiceIntent);
System.Console.WriteLine("service OnTaskRemoved");
base.OnTaskRemoved(rootIntent);
}
}

switching from different timers c#

I'm creating an Windowns phone 8 app(c#), its a countdown interval timer, so there is prepare time(10 sec), work time(20 sec), rest time(10 sec). I have these variables
`TimeSpan prepInterval = new TimeSpan(0, 0, 0, 10);
TimeSpan workInterval = new TimeSpan(0, 0, 0, 20);
TimeSpan restInterval = new TimeSpan(0, 0, 0, 10);`
I can't wrap my head around having them implementing them one after another when they hit 0. So when prepare time is done, the work timer is to start and when thats finised, the rest timer is to start.

If you would like to have some more broken down logic in all of this, maybe you can create some classes based on a simple interface, like the following:
interface ITimerAction
{
int Seconds { get; set; }
bool Started { get; }
bool Completed { get; }
void OnStart();
void OnComplete();
}
interface ITimerActionList
{
void Add(ITimerAction action);
void Work();
event EventHandler OnCompletedEvent;
}
This would then allow you to create an abstract TimerAction class, and TimerActionList
abstract class TimerAction : ITimerAction
{
public virtual int Seconds
{
get;
set;
}
public virtual bool Completed
{
get;
protected set;
}
public virtual bool Started
{
get;
protected set;
}
public abstract void OnStart();
public abstract void OnComplete();
}
class TimerActionList : ITimerActionList
{
public event EventHandler OnCompletedEvent;
private readonly IList<ITimerAction> actions = new List<ITimerAction>();
private bool working = false;
private Thread myThread;
public void Add(ITimerAction action)
{
if (working)
{
throw new InvalidOperationException("Cannot add new timers when work is already in progress");
}
actions.Add(action);
}
protected virtual void DoWork()
{
working = true;
int currentStep = 0, maxSteps = actions.Count;
while (currentStep < maxSteps)
{
ITimerAction action = actions[currentStep];
if (!action.Started)
{
action.OnStart();
}
if (action.Completed)
{
currentStep++;
continue;
}
if (action.Seconds == 0)
{
action.OnComplete();
continue;
}
action.Seconds--;
Thread.Sleep(1000);
}
Completed();
}
public void Work()
{
if (working)
{
throw new InvalidOperationException("Already running!");
}
working = true;
myThread = new Thread(DoWork);
myThread.Start();
}
protected virtual void Completed()
{
myThread = null;
working = false;
actions.Clear();
var local = OnCompletedEvent;
if (local != null)
{
local.Invoke(this, EventArgs.Empty);
}
}
}
You could then write the classes that inherit from the TimerAction class, that could handle an action before and after the timer ran through :)
class PrepareTimer : TimerAction
{
public override void OnStart()
{
Console.WriteLine("Preparing");
Started = true;
}
public override void OnComplete()
{
Console.WriteLine("Prepare ready");
Completed = true;
}
}
class WorkTimer : TimerAction
{
public override void OnStart()
{
Console.WriteLine("Working");
Started = true;
}
public override void OnComplete()
{
Console.WriteLine("Work ready");
Completed = true;
}
}
class CoolDownTimer : TimerAction
{
public override void OnStart()
{
Console.WriteLine("Cooling down");
Started = true;
}
public override void OnComplete()
{
Console.WriteLine("Cooldown ready");
Completed = true;
}
}
And then you could test the code as such
static void Main(string[] args)
{
bool done = false;
ITimerActionList mylist = new TimerActionList();
mylist.Add(new PrepareTimer { Seconds = 1 });
mylist.Add(new WorkTimer { Seconds = 2 });
mylist.Add(new CoolDownTimer { Seconds = 1 });
mylist.OnCompletedEvent += (sender, e) =>
{
done = true;
};
mylist.Work();
while (!done)
{
// timer is running
}
Console.WriteLine("Done!");
}
(Console program, but i guess that also goes to demonstrate?)

Here's an example based on deathismyfriend's and Hans Passant's suggestions:
var start = new DateTime();
var stage = 0;
var timer = new System.Timers.Timer(100);
timer.Elapsed += (s, e) =>
{
var elapsed = DateTime.Now - start;
int duration = stage == 1 ? 20 : 10;
if (elapsed.TotalSeconds > duration)
{
start = DateTime.Now;
stage++;
if (stage > 2)
timer.Stop();
}
};
start = DateTime.Now;
stage = 0;
timer.Start();

In my Code

break;
case SpeechRecognizer.SpeechRecognizer.Verbs.Stop:

}
}

It doesn't look like you ever call RecognizeSaidSomething() from SreSpeechRecognized(). You create the event args:
var said = new SaidSomethingEventArgs { Verb = 0, Phrase =
e.Result.Text };
But it doesn't appear that you do anything with it.
The foreach loop below that doesn't seem to serve any purpose, you test for the phrase then just break out of the loop. You don't set any variables or call any functions in that loop that I can see.
Then there is a for loop that appears to do something similar to the foreach loop (just in a different manner). It searches for matches to the recognized phrase, but then doesn't do anything with what it finds. It just returns.
I would think somewhere in the SreSpeechRecognized() event handler you want to call RecognizeSaidSomething() and pass it the SaidSomethingEventArgs.
