# react-native-network-info

React Native library for getting information about the devices network

## Requirements

Version 3+ requires RN 0.47 or higher
Version 2+ requires RN 0.40 - RN 0.46

## Installation

```javascript
npm install react-native-network-info --save
```

or

```javascript
yarn add react-native-network-info
```

### Linking the library

#### Using React Native >= 0.60

Linking the package manually is not required anymore with Autolinking.

#### `iOS` also requires CocoaPods install

$ `cd ios && pod install && cd ..`

#### Using React Native < 0.60

$ `react-native link react-native-network-info`

## Usage

```javascript
import {NetworkInfo} from 'react-native-network-info';

// Get Local IP
NetworkInfo.getIPAddress().then(ipAddress => {
console.log(ipAddress);
});

// Get IPv4 IP (priority: WiFi first, cellular second)
NetworkInfo.getIPV4Address().then(ipv4Address => {
console.log(ipv4Address);
});

// Get Broadcast
NetworkInfo.getBroadcast().then(broadcast => {
console.log(broadcast);
});

// Get SSID
NetworkInfo.getSSID().then(ssid => {
console.log(ssid);
});

// Get BSSID
NetworkInfo.getBSSID().then(bssid => {
console.log(bssid);
});

// Get Subnet
NetworkInfo.getSubnet().then(subnet => {
console.log(subnet);
});

// Get Default Gateway IP
NetworkInfo.getGatewayIPAddress().then(defaultGateway => {
console.log(defaultGateway);
});

// Get frequency (supported only for Android)
NetworkInfo.getFrequency().then(frequency => {
console.log(frequency);
});
```

### Manually Linking the Library

If `react-native link` fails and you are not using the auto linking provided in React Native >= 0.60

### `iOS`

1. In XCode, in the project navigator, right click Libraries ➜ Add Files to [your project's name]

2. Go to node_modules ➜ react-native-network-info and add the .xcodeproj file

3. Add `RNNetworkInfo.a` to `Build Phases -> Link Binary With Libraries`

Run your project (Cmd+R)

### `Android`

1. Add the following lines to `android/settings.gradle`:

```gradle
include ':react-native-network-info'
project(':react-native-network-info').projectDir = new File(settingsDir, '../node_modules/react-native-network-info/android')
```

2. Update the android build tools version to `2.2.+` in `android/build.gradle`:
```gradle
buildscript {
...
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.+' // <- USE 2.2.+ version
}
...
}
...
```
3. Update the gradle version to `2.14.1` in `android/gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties`:

```
...
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-2.14.1-all.zip
```

4. Add the compile line to the dependencies in `android/app/build.gradle`:

```gradle
dependencies {
...
compile project(':react-native-network-info')
}
```

5. Add the import and link the package in `MainApplication.java`:

```java
import com.pusherman.networkinfo.RNNetworkInfoPackage; // <-- add this import

public class MainApplication extends Application implements ReactApplication {
@Override
protected List getPackages() {
return Arrays.asList(
new MainReactPackage(),
new RNNetworkInfoPackage() // <-- add this line
);
}
}
```
