feat: fetch(interface) [Android & iOS]

[Rapsssito]

Overview

Nowadays, most devices can handle multiple connections via different interfaces at the same time. This library automatically gets the current active connection given by the OS. However, there could be other connections going into the device.
With this feature, we maintain the current standard NetInfo.fetch() but adding the possibility to look for the NetInfoState of a specific network interface.

Implementation

NetInfo.fetch() // Returns the usual NetInfoState of the default current network
NetInfo.fetch('wifi') // Returns the WiFi interface NetInfoState
NetInfo.fetch('ethernet') // Returns the ethernet interface NetInfoState
NetInfo.fetch('cellular') // Returns the cellular interface NetInfoState
...

Compatibility

• iOS
• Android

Windows is not compatible. However, I could not test if my changes broke something there. Windows testing is necessary.

Thanks for submitting this. Sorry it's taken so long to get back to you on it.

Now that the configuration change PR has been merged in, can you rebase your changes on the master branch so I can review it?

[Rapsssito]

@matt-oakes feel free to review it whenever you can.

LGTM. I've made a few style changes to the native code to make them more idiomatic and fixed a small merge error on Android. Merging when the tests pass.

@Rapsssito Would you be interested in helping out with maintaining the library?

@matt-oakes, of course! However, I have zero experience with this types of libraries. I won't be taking part in big changes or issues until I feel confident.

@matt-oakes, I'm sorry to bother you again, is the offer still standing? I have not received news since the message.
