@nick-bull/react-native-debug-address NPM

Work in progress. It works, but you might get some wonderful console messages as I test :)

Description

⚠️ Warning - only for Android. Please feel free to add a pull request for iOS

Sets the debug host for a React Native app. This can be set using Ctrl/Cmd+M, selecting "Settings", then typing it into the "Debug server host & port for device" popup.

This can get tedious if you find yourself continuously restarting an emulator with a server on the non-default port, especially if you're running multiple emulators

Installation

npm i react-native-debug-address

You can find an example project here.

Usage

You can do this via two environment variables, DEBUG_HOST (default: 127.0.0.1) and DEBUG_PORT (default: 8081).

DEBUG_HOST can be used to set both the address and the port (e.g., 127.0.0.1:8081):

Make sure to install babel-plugin-transform-inline-environment-variables so that your environment variables are registered

DEBUG_HOST=127.0.0.1:8081 npx react-native start

You can also get and set the debug address programmatically:

import {getDebugAddress, setDebugAddress} from 'react-native-debug-address';

await setDebugAddress('127.0.0.1'); // Port defaults to `8081` 
await setDebugAddress('127.0.0.1', '8765');
await setDebugAddress('127.0.0.1:8765');

const debugAddress = await getDebugAddress();
console.log(debugAddress); // Outputs `127.0.0.1:8765`
