getNtpOffset fails on web with “Unsupported operation: InternetAddress.lookup”

[amatveiakin]

Does ntp package support web? Web isn't explicitly mentioned in the list of supported platforms at https://pub.dev/packages/ntp, but I was under impression that the package is written in native dart and should work on all platforms.

However when I try to call getNtpOffset from a web app, it fails with “Unsupported operation: InternetAddress.lookup”.

Tested in Firefox and Chrome, in a debug build running on local host and in a release build deployed to Firebase hosting. Using Dart 2.8.1, Flutter 1.17.0-3.4.pre, ntp 1.0.6.

Thanks for reporting the issue :D

Looks like I'll have to find better solution for this.
This is because dart:io is not supported on web.

[amatveiakin]

Thanks! I'm a bit confused about the status of this issue now :) Was 0f0d1a4 supposed to work around dart:io problem?

I've updated to the new version and now getNtpOffset throws an UnimplementedError.

[knezzz]

It was supposed to fix it yeah. There was package I found universal_io that is supposed to work on web, but it was not working when I tested it so I reopened the issue :/ (github automatically closes the issue if issue number is in commit message)

[expilu]

Interested in support for web too :)

[knezzz]

Okay, will look up how can I make it work on web as well :)

[itschrono]

Hello. How is it going? Do you need a hand?

[knezzz]

Hey @itschrono. Sure if you have time I can assign it to you.
I didn't have much luck with universal_io.

[itschrono]

Ok why not. I need it anyway 😊 De : Luka Knezic <notifications@github.com> Envoyé : jeudi 17 septembre 2020 15:58 À : knezzz/ntp <ntp@noreply.github.com> Cc : Antoine BELLAY <antoine@itschrono.com>; Mention <mention@noreply.github.com> Objet : Re: [knezzz/ntp] getNtpOffset fails on web with “Unsupported operation: InternetAddress.lookup” (#15) Hey @itschrono<https://github.com/itschrono>.

Thanks I appreciate it. meanwhile I'll try to come up with something, if I do I'll ping here.

[itschrono]

Hello,

dgram and raw socket are a no go in web browser. The only options are: http(s) 1.1 or websocket. This means it is not going to work with this ntp protocol. The api can still be the same if the lookUpAddress support both connection types.

[a-elhaddad]

Any news about fix?

[itschrono]

Hello. I did my own stuff. Sorry guys. Cordialement Best Regards, Antoine BELLAY Software Manager 23 rue du Comté de Montbéliard - 25660 Montfaucon – FRANCE tél: +33(0) 3 81 57 52 09 www.itschrono.com<http://www.itschrono.com> - www.its-events.com<http://www.its-events.com>

@itschrono How did you get host address (The InternetAddress.lookup part that is failing here)? Can something like that be implemented here?
I was looking today a bit at other solutions but coundn't find anything that works 😞

[itschrono]

Hello. I use a web socket and a custom protocole which do the standard t1, t2, t1p, t2p compute.

hi @knezzz
do you think it is possible to construct the InternetAddress if we have the IP Address?
if so, I think one idea is to build DNS utility with the implementation of DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH).
https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/doh

this is one example:
https://github.com/Ephenodrom/Dart-Basic-Utils/blob/master/lib/src/DnsUtils.dart

thoughts?

[knezzz]

Hi @oonid, sorry for not getting back sooner, I wanted to reply when I test this but I still didn't have a chance to try it.

Looks promising, and that will solve the web issue for sure so I will definitely try it.

Thanks for suggestion 😄

[oonid]

hi @knezzz
I have added PR #27
would you please review and edit it for better implementation?

I'm quite new to flutter web but it looks like the update didn't solve the problem...
