Unable to get user's location using CLLocationManager - swiftui

Question

I am having an issue when trying to request the user's location using CLLocationManager. When running my app, the Console gives this error: [WeatherDataService] Response did not contain requested dataset: .appLocationConfig. Returning default value: AppLocationConfig(reportAnIssue: ReportIssueLocationConfig(position: beforeFooter, minDaysSinceInteraction: 0), expireTime: 2023-01-23 07:30:06 +0000.
I tried looking up some tutorials on requesting the user's location using CLLocationManager but none of them worked.
Here is my LocationManager class and extension:
class LocationManager: NSObject, ObservableObject {
#Published var currentLocation: CLLocation?
private let locationManager = CLLocationManager()
override init() {
super.init()
locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyBest
locationManager.distanceFilter = kCLDistanceFilterNone
locationManager.requestAlwaysAuthorization()
locationManager.startUpdatingLocation()
locationManager.delegate = self
}
}
extension LocationManager: CLLocationManagerDelegate {
func locationManager(_ manager: CLLocationManager, didUpdateLocations locations: [CLLocation]) {
guard let location = locations.last, currentLocation == nil else { return }
DispatchQueue.main.async {
self.currentLocation = location
}
}
}
Here is the code inside my VStack:
VStack{
if let weather {
VStack{
HStack{
Text("Singapore")
.padding()
.font(.largeTitle)
VStack {
Text("Condition: \(weather.currentWeather.condition.rawValue)")
.font(.title2)
Text("Temperature: \(weather.currentWeather.temperature.formatted())")
.font(.title2)
Text("Feels like: \(weather.currentWeather.apparentTemperature.formatted())")
.font(.title2)
// Text("Min: \() Max: \()")
// .font(.title)
}
}

.font(.subheadline)

// UV Index

.clipShape(RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 10.0, style: .continuous))
// Wind Direction
VStack{

.font(.system(size: 53))
.foregroundColor(.yellow)
let windSpeed = (weather.currentWeather.wind)
Text("WIND DIRECTION")
.font(.headline)
.foregroundColor(.white)
Text("\(windSpeed.compassDirection.rawValue)")
.foregroundColor(.white)
}
.frame(width: 155)
.padding()
.background(content: {Color.blue})
.clipShape(RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 10.0, style: .continuous))
}
HStack{
// Visibility
VStack{
Image(systemName: "mountain.2")
.font(.system(size: 53))
.foregroundColor(.yellow)
let visibility = (weather.currentWeather.visibility)
Text("VISIBILITY")
.font(.headline)
.foregroundColor(.white)
Text("\(visibility.formatted())")
.foregroundColor(.white)
}
.frame(width: 155)
.padding()
.background(content: {Color.blue})
.clipShape(RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 10.0, style: .continuous))
}
}
}
}
}
I also add a .task to my VStack so the weather data will only show up when the user's location has been retrieved:
} // This is where the VStack ends.
.padding()
.task(id: locationManager.currentLocation) {
do {
// if let location = locationManager.currentLocation {
let location = CLLocation(latitude: 1.30437, longitude: 103.82458)
self.weather = try await weatherService.weather(for: location)
// }
} catch {
print(error)
}
}
