ES6 class to simplify formatting of Geolocation coordinates
# NPM
npm install geolocation-coordinate --save
# Yarn
yarn add geolocation-coordinate
import { Coordinate } from 'geolocation-coordinate';
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition((position) => {
let { latitude, longitude } = position.coords;
let latCoord = new Coordinate(latitude, 'latitude');
let lngCoord = new Coordinate(longitude, 'longitude');
latCoord.degrees; // 59.2349887712
latCoord.minutes; // 14.09932627200007
latCoord.seconds; // 5.959576320004203
latCoord.cardinalCoordinate; // "North"
latCoord.toString('dd'); // "59.235° North"
latCoord.toString('ddm'); // "59° 14.099' North"
latCoord.toString('dms'); // "59° 14' 6" North"
