I’m working on replacing Day One with Bear, and to that end I want to insert my current location into the Bear Journal note .
I installed an application call “Location Helper”, and I can get my lat/long/elevation coordinates using some simple applescript
tell application “Location Helper”
set clocation_description to get location string
log ("Current address is " & clocation_description)
end tell
But what a really want is and address like
1 Microsoft Way
Redmond, WA 12345
It looks like I can do a reverse address request using Google Geocoding API, but since my Mac knows it’s location, is there a way ask it for its street address? .
For curious, I’m making an Keyboard Maestro macro that opens a Bear note and populates with Journal template text, include things like date, weather, and ( soon ) location.
