Intent for Tasker to start/stop Tracklog automatically

Hi,

It would be a great improvement for me to start / stop track recording automatically by Tasker via an intent, similar to comparable intents in Locus:

http://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php/manual:locus_api:public_intents

Could you please implement intents in Oruxmaps for

- Start track recording with new track
- Start track recording with new segment
- Stop track recording
- Continue track recording

This would be great and worth another donation.

Thank you very much - and keep up the great work!

No problem added to my 'todo' list.

that would be awesome. I had the same idea today and just registered here to ask for it!

You could set Tasker to automatically log on location states (leaving home) or when entering car mode or switch logging of when battery runs low etc.

Android shortcuts would do as well, since there is a plugin for Tasker called AutoShortcut that can trigger shortcuts.

Thanks again for this nice app

thank you orux, i love you

since i couldnt find any documentation on this i had to look up the intents:

com.oruxmaps.INTENT_START_RECORD_NEWTRACK
com.oruxmaps.INTENT_START_RECORD_NEWSEGMENT
com.oruxmaps.INTENT_START_RECORD_CONTINUE
com.oruxmaps.INTENT_STOP_RECORD
com.oruxmaps.INTENT_NEW_WAYPOINT

i wonder are there any extras to put?
