React-Native socket.io no connection

Question

I wanted to use socket.io in my RN project. Everything was ok, until I disabled chrome debugger. Now socket.io just doesn't work, nothing happens.

This is not the same problem: Is it possible to combine React Native with socket.io

Answer 1

What's your React Native version?

In your url add ws:// like :

var soc = socket('ws://192.168.1.101',{
  jsonp: false
})

It works fine on device with RN v0.21.0.

After I upgrade RN to 0.24.0, it doesn't work again.

Answer 2

I have also got this problem. I fixed this from this link

You have to initialize socket like this

this.socket = io('http://192.168.0.101', {jsonp: false, transports: ['websocket']});
