react-native-netclient v0.0.1

react-native-netclient

A network library which provides the most fastest & efficient way to handle the HTTP request and response. It acts like a rest client and supports on both ios & android. It uses the core fetch react native API. This library follows the oops standard for accessing javascript objects. User-friendly API that allows you to maintain your API code neat and would be useful for maintenance.

Getting Started

1. Installnpm i react-native-netclient --save

2. Import network components

import {
  Request,
  Response,
  RNETWORK,
} from 'react-native-netclient;

3. Create the request object

let request = new Request('http://demo9062349.mockable.io/country');
    request.addHeaders({
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
      'Accept-Encoding': '*',
    });//To add multiple headers
    request.setQueryParams({
      code : 'US'
    });//To set query params

4. Make the API request

    RNETWORK.get(request, () => {
      // Pre execute call back
      //This will be called before making API call
      //Show the loader here
    }, (response: Response) =>{
      // Post execute call back
      // Success and Failure resposne in same callback
      //Check for error then process
      if(response.getError()){
        alert(response.getError().message);
      }else{
        alert(response.getBodyString());
      }
    });

Core Classes

• Request (Used to build the request)
• Response (Provides the API response in standard format)
• RNETWORK (Used to handle the API request methods and hit the API)

1. Request Class

Constructor This class takes an URL string as a constructor params.

Ex) new Request("http://demo9062349.mockable.io/country")

Instance Methods

2. Response Class

Instance Methods

3. RNETWORK Class

Instance Methods

1. get(request: Request, preExecuteCallback, postExecuteCallback) Used to make the "GET" request.

Params

request - The request object have to build using Request class.

preExecuteCallback- A normal javascript function has no params. It will be called before making API call. Here you can show the progress loader.

postExecuteCallback- A normal javascript function has only one param with Response return type. It will be called after making API call. Here you can hide the progress loader and add your response logic here.

Example

let request = new Request('http://demo9062349.mockable.io/country');
request.addHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json');  //To add single header
RNETWORK.get(request, () => {
      // Pre execute call back
      //This will be called before making API call
      //Show the loader here
    }, (response: Response) =>{
      // Post execute call back
      // Success and Failure resposne in same callback
      //Check for error then process
      if(response.getError()){
        alert(response.getError().message);
      }else{
        alert(response.getBodyString());
      }

    });

2. post(request: Request, preExecuteCallback, postExecuteCallback) Used to make the "POST" request.

Params

request - The request object have to build using Request class.

preExecuteCallback- A normal javascript function has no params. It will be called before making API call. Here you can show the progress loader.

postExecuteCallback- A normal javascript function has only one param with Response return type. It will be called after making API call. Here you can hide the progress loader and add your response logic here.

Example

    let request = new Request('http://demo9062349.mockable.io/postJsonData');
    request.addHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json');  //To add single header
    request.setJsonData({
      name: 'XXXXXX',
      city: 'YYYYYY'
    }); //To set json data in request object
    RNETWORK.post(request, () => {
      // Pre execute call back
      //This will be called before making API call
      //Show the loader here
    }, (response: Response) =>{
      // Post execute call back
      // Success and Failure resposne in same callback
      //Check for error then process
      if(response.getError()){
        alert(response.getError().message);
      }else{
        alert(response.getBodyString());
      }

    });

To enable logs - RNETWORK.DEBUG_ENABLED = true;
