Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

0.0.3 - 2025-07-05

Added

• Introduced real Streams for live location updates: using StreamController and StreamSubscription to listen for GPS positions in real time.
• Integrated StreamBuilder in the UI to redraw the map marker and polyline automatically when new location data arrives.
• Added a timeout (20s) to getCurrentPosition() to prevent waiting forever for GPS lock.
• Added accuracy filter: ignores updates with GPS accuracy worse than 20 meters.
• Added minimum distance filter (2 meters) to reduce small GPS jitter that causes false path points.
• Added debug logs to show how Streams accept or discard new points.
• Improved resource handling: cancels Streams properly when closing the screen to avoid battery drain or leaks.

0.0.2 - 2025-07-01

Changed

• Improved README.md with clearer usage instructions and stronger unique value statement.
• Added better function examples for uploading PathModel to Firestore or any custom HTTP server.
• Improved developer documentation for easier integration.

0.0.1 - 2025-06-30

Added

• Initial release of osm_path_tracker.

Notes
