How to install ethers6.x on React Native?

[heroims]

There is no description in 6.x doc like 5.x doc

I haven’t experimented much with RN, but now that it doesn’t use any weird bundling during build time, I would hope that it more or less works out of the box? There is one issue with the browser field I have a fix for that will be going out soon.

But if you have any feedback, it’s be welcome. I’ve been considering making an ethers-specific RN package that brings in all the needed packages too.

ethers6.x on React Native is error:
/node_modules/ethers/lib.commonjs/providers/provider-ipcsocket.js: net could not be found within the project or in these directories:
node_modules/ethers/node_modules
node_modules
2 | Object.defineProperty(exports, "__esModule", { value: true });
3 | exports.IpcSocketProvider = void 0;

4 | const net_1 = require("net");
^
5 | const provider_socket_js_1 = require("./provider-socket.js");
6 | // @todo: Is this sufficient? Is this robust? Will newlines occur between
7 | // all payloads and only between payloads?

I'm using now is like this:

• 1.npm install --save-dev @babel/plugin-proposal-class-properties
• 2.add this in babel.config.js

plugins: [
    '@babel/plugin-proposal-class-properties',
    '@babel/plugin-proposal-private-methods',
  ],

• 3.npm install rn-nodeify --save
• 4.add this in package.json

"postinstall": "rn-nodeify --install assert,url,http,zlib,https,buffer,process,stream,net,crypto --hack && patch-package",

• 5.remove node_modules/react-native-tcp/ios/CocoaAsyncSocket
• 6.Call ethers.scrypt.register and ethers.pbkdf2.register to replace scrypt and pbkdf2 with my own high-speed method

Excuse me, one cuestion when you make that, do you also get this error?

* What went wrong: A problem occurred evaluating project ':react-native-tcp'. Could not find method compile() for arguments [com.facebook.react:react-native:+] on object of type org.gradle.api.internal.artifacts.dsl.dependencies.DefaultDependencyHandler.

i follow all the steps but i'm getting this error

I get an error with createRandom.

const wallet = ethers.Wallet.createRandom();

TypeError: "list" argument must be an Array of Buffers
    at concat
    at Hmac
    at createHmac
    at _computeHmac
    at computeHmac
    at _fromSeed
    at call (native)
    at createRandom

6.Call ethers.scrypt.register and ethers.pbkdf2.register to replace scrypt and pbkdf2 with my own high-speed method

Do I have to replace computeHmac.register as well?

[heroims]

import {createHmac} from 'react-native-crypto';
import {Buffer} from 'buffer';

ethers.computeHmac.register((algorithm, key, data) => {
  return createHmac(algorithm, Buffer.from(key))
    .update(Buffer.from(data))
    .digest();
});

Thanks for the reply!
