title: How do I request permission for Android Device Location in React Native at run-time?
body: <p>I have been trying to use React Native 's GeoLocalisation for an Android App. The poorly documentated module is found here <a href="https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/geolocation.html" rel="noreferrer">https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/geolocation.html</a>.
  According to the documentation, you handle location permissions on Android using the following code in the <code>AndroidManifest.xml</code> file</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" /&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, my online research suggests that the above line of code is useless for versions of <code>ANDROID &gt;= 6.0</code></p>
  
  <p>As my implementation of GeoLocation is not currently working, I have no other reason but to believe that location permissions are not correctly handled.</p>
  
  <p>How do I successfully request location permission at run-time for React Native Android App ?
  Thanks in advance !</p>
