<hr class="divider">
<p>The <code class="highlighter-rouge">gpslogger</code> device tracker platform allows you to detect presence using <a href="http://code.mendhak.com/gpslogger/">GPSLogger</a>. GPSLogger is an open source app for <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mendhak.gpslogger">Android</a> that allows users to set up a <code class="highlighter-rouge">GET</code> request to update GPS coordinates. This can be configured with Home Assistant to update your location.</p>
<p>To integrate GPSLogger in Home Assistant, add the following section to your <code class="highlighter-rouge">configuration.yaml</code> file:</p>
<div class="language-yaml highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code><span class="c1"># Example configuration.yaml entry</span>
<span class="s">device_tracker</span><span class="pi">:</span>
<span class="pi">-</span> <span class="s">platform</span><span class="pi">:</span> <span class="s">gpslogger</span>
<span class="s">password</span><span class="pi">:</span> <span class="kt">!secret</span> <span class="s">gpslogger_password</span>
</code></pre>
</div>
<div class="config-vars">
<h3><a class="title-link" name="configuration-variables" href="#configuration-variables"></a> Configuration Variables</h3>
<dl class="">
<dt><a class="title-link" name="password" href="#password"></a> password</dt>
<dd>
<p class="desc"><span class="type">(<span class="string">string</span>)</span><span class="required">(Optional)</span><span class="description">Separate password for GPS Logger endpoint. If provided using regular API password to contact endpoint will result in 401 response.</span></p>
</dd>
</dl>
</div>
<h2><a class="title-link" name="setup-on-your-smartphone" href="#setup-on-your-smartphone"></a> Setup on your smartphone</h2>
<p>Install <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mendhak.gpslogger">GPSLogger for Android</a> on your device.</p>
<p>After the launch, go to <strong>General Options</strong>. Enable <strong>Start on bootup</strong> and <strong>Start on app launch</strong>.</p>
<p class="img">
<img width="300" src="/images/components/gpslogger/settings.png" />
GPSLogger Settings
</p>
<p>Go to <strong>Logging details</strong> and disable <strong>Log to GPX</strong>. <strong>Log to KML</strong>, and <strong>Log to NMEA</strong>. Enable <strong>Log to custom URL</strong>.</p>
<p class="img">
<img width="300" src="/images/components/gpslogger/logging-details.png" />
Logging Details
</p>
<p>Right after enabling, the app will take you to the <strong>Log to custom URL</strong> settings.</p>
<p class="img">
<img width="300" src="/images/components/gpslogger/custom-url.png" />
Log to custom URL details
</p>
<p>The relevant endpoint is: <code class="highlighter-rouge">/api/gpslogger</code></p>
<div class="language-text highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code>http://[IP address Home Assistant]:[Port]/api/gpslogger?
latitude=%LAT&amp;longitude=%LON&amp;device=%SER&amp;accuracy=%ACC
&amp;battery=%BATT&amp;speed=%SPD&amp;direction=%DIR
&amp;altitude=%ALT&amp;provider=%PROV&amp;activity=%ACT
</code></pre>
</div>
<p>Add the above URL after you modified it with your settings into the <strong>URL</strong> field. Remove the line breaks as they are only there to make the URL readable here.</p>
<ul>
<li>Its HIGHLY recommended to use SSL/TLS.</li>
<li>Use the domain that Home Assistant is available on the internet or the public IP address. Can be a local IP address if you are using a VPN setup.</li>
<li>Only remove <code class="highlighter-rouge">[Port]</code> if your Home Assistant instance is using port 80. Otherwise set it to 8123.</li>
<li>For Home Assistant only the above URL, as written, will work - do not add or remove any parameters.</li>
<li>Make sure to include your <a href="/components/http/">API password</a> if you have configured a password. Add <code class="highlighter-rouge">&amp;api_password=[Your password]</code> to the end of the URL.</li>
<li>You can change the name of your device name by replacing <code class="highlighter-rouge">&amp;device=%SER</code> with <code class="highlighter-rouge">&amp;device=[Devicename]</code>.</li>
</ul>
<p>If your battery drains fast then you can tune the performance of GPSLogger under <strong>Performance</strong> -&gt; <strong>Location providers</strong></p>
<p class="img">
<img width="300" src="/images/components/gpslogger/performance.png" />
Performance
</p>
<p>A request can be forced from the app to test if everything is working fine. A successful request will update the <code class="highlighter-rouge">known_devices.yaml</code> file with the devices serial number.</p>
