react-native-redux-connectivity

Monitor network connectivity and store the result in Redux

Monitors:

• Network connectivity
• Network type (e.g. wifi)

This library is compatible with React Native 0.57 and up only. For compatibility with earlier versions of React Native, please use version 0.2.0

Installation

npm install react-native-redux-connectivity

or

yarn add react-native-redux-connectivity

You will also need to add @react-native-community/netinfo and follow the instructions to link the library

npm install --save @react-native-community/netinfo

or

react-native link @react-native-community/netinfo

Usage

In your main app component:

import {NetworkMonitor} from 'react-native-redux-connectivity'
const store = [IMPORT YOUR REDUX STORE HERE]
 
class App extends Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.networkMonitor = new NetworkMonitor(store);
    this.networkMonitor.start();
 }
 
 componentWillUnmount() {
  this.networkMonitor.stop();
 }
}

In your root reducer:

import {combineReducers} from 'redux';
import {NetworkReducer} from 'react-native-redux-connectivity';
 
/**
 * When new reducers are added, put them here
 */
export default combineReducers({
  network: NetworkReducer,
  // .. your other reducers
});
 

You'll then see in Redux:

network: { 
  connected: boolean, // true if there's an Internet connection
  connectionType: 'none'|'wifi'|'cell'|'unknown',
  effectiveType: '2g'|'3g'|'4g'|'unknown',
}
