The import statement does not "auto Init" anything, in principle.

Here, you import the LocationService module. If it is imported by the
first time, its code (at the module level) is executed. The imported
module is available under the name "LocationService" in the current
namespace.

Presumably, the module LocationService defines a class of the same name;
you refer to that class using LocationService.LocationService. The last ()
create an instance of that class; that instance is bound to the name
Location.

This may or may not be correct; here you call a (global) function setIP
inside the LocationService module.

Not enough info, without knowing how LocationService is supposed to be
used. But as I said, the setIP call looks suspicious.
