netinfo with android

Expo SDK
1

Please provide the following:

  1. SDK Version:32
  2. Platforms(ios/android/both):android
    I am using the managed workflow of expo.

I am building an app which required netinfo. The documentation states:

To request network info, you need to add the following line to your app’s AndroidManifest.xml :

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />

My question is, how can I do this given that I don’t have the manifest file. Is there something i can do on the app.json which will automatically translate to that entry in the manifest for example?

If I recall correctly, the networking permission is included by default.

In app.json, just include permissions like so:

    "android": {
      "permissions": [],
}

Hey @aalsamarrai,

@siddemo is correct. A Managed Expo project will have this permission included by default. You can just use the NetInfo module without any native configuration.

Cheers,
Adam
