Enable HTTP Geolocation For Local Firefox Debugging


Im wondering why its still working for me but this is my code:

    function geolocate() {      if (navigator.geolocation) {        navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(            function(position) {                let lat = position.coords.latitude;                let lng = position.coords.longitude;                var geolocation = {                    lat: lat,                    lng: lng                };                document.getElementById('lat').value = lat;                document.getElementById('lng').value = lng;                console.log("----------------------------------------------");                console.log("Found Location: "+ lat + " / " + lng);                var google_maps_geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();                google_maps_geocoder.geocode(                    { 'latLng': geolocation },                    function( results, status ) {                        let street = results[0].address_components[1].long_name;                        let number = results[0].address_components[0].long_name;                        let plz = results[0].address_components[6].long_name;                        let city = results[3].address_components[0].long_name;                        //let country = results[7].formatted_address;                        let full = street+" "+number+", "+plz+" "+city;                        // write the values in the fields                        document.getElementById('autocomplete').value = full;                        document.getElementById('route').value = street;                        document.getElementById('street_number').value = number;                        document.getElementById('postal_code').value = plz;                        document.getElementById('locality').value = city;                        //document.getElementById('country').value = country;                        console.log("User Address: "+street+" "+number+", "+plz+" "+city);                        $.ajax({                            type: 'POST',                            url: 'include/set-location.inc.php',                            data: {lat: lat, lng: lng, street: street, number: number, plz: plz, city: city, full: full},                            dataType: 'json',                            success: function(response) {                                if(response.status === 'success') {                                    console.log("Saved address in a cookie!");                                    if (site === "jobs") {                                        location.reload(true);                                    }                                }                            }                        });                    }                );            });      }    }

I hope my code will help you ;)


You can test on localhost without encryption

Firefox will not send Geolocation over a non secure connection and this behaviour cannot be disabled. However, localhost is considered to be a secure connection so that might be an option when testing. This also explains why Christopher Supertramp could try his code over http- he's on localhost.

This is from Mozilla documentation:

Locally delivered files such as http://localhost and file:// paths are considered to have been delivered securely.
