Chrome Geolocation Spoof Extension

Chrome extension to spoof geolocation and simulate a route - useful for GPS applications development

Extension

The extension is under extension directory.
See project's README.md for details.

Service

Currently getting route points is via a service under routeToPositionsService directory.
The service uses Bing Maps API.
Copy config.example.js to config.js and add your Bing Maps API key.
Install dependencies via npm install.
Run the service using node -r esm index.js

The service logic will move into the extension in the future.
Also, currently the URL is hardcoded in extension (look for localhost:3000).

Demo

A demo page which watch the current position can be found under demo directory.
Install the extension, open the demo page, click on the extension popup and have fun.

Notes

The extension is in early development stage and is not stable.
Two-way binding is not properly set-up which requires clicking on the popup's UI to see updates.
There is no storage yet so all setting are hardcoded and the values reset once the popup closes.
Also, get position doesn't always work (but is a redundant feature anyway).
