Proof of concept PHP implementation of [Apple location services protocol](https://appelsiini.net/2017/reverse-engineering-location-services/). This library does **not** do any actual requests. It is used only for creating and parsing requests and responses.

Install
-------

[](#install)

Install the library using [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/).

```
$ composer require tuupola/corelocation
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Request

[](#request)

Request class returns a binary string. It is up to reader to figure out what to do with it.

```
require __DIR__ . "/vendor/autoload.php";

use Tuupola\CoreLocation\Request;

$request = new Request(["aa:aa:aa:aa:aa:aa", "bb:bb:bb:bb:bb:bb"]);
$hex = bin2hex($request->body());
print_r(str_split($hex, 64));

/*
Array
(
    [0] => 00010005656e5f55530013636f6d2e6170706c652e6c6f636174696f6e64000c
    [1] => 382e342e312e313248333231000000010000002c12130a1161613a61613a6161
    [2] => 3a61613a61613a616112130a1162623a62623a62623a62623a62623a62622064
)
*/
```

### Response

[](#response)

Respons class can be used for unserializing the response. It is up to reader to figure out how to get a response.

```
require __DIR__ . "/vendor/autoload.php";

use Tuupola\CoreLocation\Response;

$data = file_get_contents("response.bin");
$response = (new Response)->fromString($data);

foreach ($response as $router) {
    print_r($router);
}

/*
Array
(
    [mac] => cc:cc:cc:cc:cc:cc
    [latitude] => 27.98785,
    [longitude] => 86.9228374
    [accuracy] => 42
    [channel] => 10
)
...
*/
```
