S.O Kill Foreground Service. #250
Description
Hello Guys, good morning.
Implement Background Actions to perform a task by calling a native module that scans BLE devices, if I use the cell phone frequently the foregroundservice runs perfectly throughout the day. The problem comes when the screen turns off for several hours, I find that the OS kills the service since I don't see it in the silent notifications. Activate without restrictions to save battery in my app, also in the foregroundservice type I configure it as follows:
Option for notification:
<service android:name="com.asterinet.react.bgactions.RNBackgroundActionsTask" android:foregroundServiceType="connectedDevice|dataSync|location">
I also went on to configure the notification and the task performed below:
O
`const options = {
taskName: 'BLEScanner',
taskTitle: 'Escáner BLE Activo',
taskDesc: 'Buscando dispositivos W6...',
taskIcon: {
name: 'ic_launcher',
type: 'mipmap',
},
color: '#FF0000',
parameters: {
delay: 15000,
},
importance: 4, // IMPORTANCE_HIGH
notification: {
channelId: 'ble-scanner',
channelName: 'Escáner BLE',
channelDescription: 'Servicio crítico de escaneo de dispositivos',
channelImportance: 4, // IMPORTANCE_HIGH
visibility: 'public',
ongoing: true,
priority: 'high',
android: {
foregroundServiceTypes: [
'connectedDevice',
'dataSync',
'location'
]
}
}
};`
Task configuration::
`const sleep = (time) =>
new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(() => resolve(), time));
const veryIntensiveTask = async (taskDataArguments) => {
console.log("Iniciando tarea de escaneo en segundo plano");
let lastPanicSendTime: Date = null;
await new Promise(async (resolve) => {
while (BackgroundService.isRunning()) {
try {
await BackgroundService.updateNotification({
taskDesc: "Escaneando dispositivos W6...",
});
if (
lastPanicSendTime == null ||
new Date().getTime() - lastPanicSendTime.getTime() > 60000
) {
const devices = await CustomModule.scanDevices();
//SI ENCONTRO UN PAQUETE
if (devices.length > 0) {
lastPanicSendTime = new Date();
try {
const locationNativo = await CustomModule.getCurrentLocation();
const locationToSv = formatPosition(locationNativo);
positionStore.sendPosition([locationToSv]);
} catch (error) {
console.error("Error al enviar la posición:", error);
await BackgroundService.updateNotification({
taskDesc: `Error al enviar la posición: ${error.message}`,
});
}
} else {
await BackgroundService.updateNotification({
taskDesc: `No se encontraron dispositivos W6`,
});
}
}
await sleep(SCAN_INTERVAL);
} catch (error) {
console.error("Error en el ciclo de escaneo:", error);
await sleep(SCAN_INTERVAL);
}
}
});
};
`
**Is there any specific configuration or anything I can change to make my foregroundservice more reliable and resilient to being killed by the operating system when the screen is off for several hours?
**
THANK YOU SO MUCH !
