Usage

import{NetworkInfo}from'react-native-network-info';// Get Local IPNetworkInfo.getIPAddress().then(ipAddress=>{console.log(ipAddress);});// Get IPv4 IP (priority: WiFi first, cellular second)NetworkInfo.getIPV4Address().then(ipv4Address=>{console.log(ipv4Address);});// Get BroadcastNetworkInfo.getBroadcast().then(broadcast=>{console.log(broadcast);});// Get SSIDNetworkInfo.getSSID().then(ssid=>{console.log(ssid);});// Get BSSIDNetworkInfo.getBSSID().then(bssid=>{console.log(bssid);});// Get SubnetNetworkInfo.getSubnet().then(subnet=>{console.log(subnet);});// Get Default Gateway IPNetworkInfo.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:

   include ':react-native-network-info'
   project(':react-native-network-info').projectDir =newFile(settingsDir, '../node_modules/react-native-network-info/android')

2. Update the android build tools version to 2.2.+ in android/build.gradle:

   buildscript {
   ...
   dependencies {
   classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.+'// <- USE 2.2.+ version

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

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

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

   importcom.pusherman.networkinfo.RNNetworkInfoPackage; // <-- add this importpublicclassMainApplicationextendsApplicationimplementsReactApplication {
   @OverrideprotectedList<ReactPackage> getPackages() {
   returnArrays.<ReactPackage>asList(
   newMainReactPackage(),
   newRNNetworkInfoPackage() // <-- add this line
   );
   }
   }
