react-native-threaded-downloader

Perform HTTP requests on separate native asynchronous threads and then call back to a promise.

Installation

npm install react-native-threaded-downloader

Usage

import { performThreadedDownload } from 'react-native-threaded-downloader';

// First argument is the URL and second argument is the timeout in seconds
performThreadedDownload("https://example.com/", 60)
  .then((response) => console.log(response))
  .catch((e) => console.dir(e));

See the example for details.

How it works

When performThreadedDownload is called:

• On iOS, a task is executed on a dispatch queue of type DISPATCH_QUEUE_CONCURRENT.
• On Android, a Runnable is executed on a thread pool of up to 10 native threads.
