Connectivity

The connectivity module provides a common abstraction of the functionality responsible for receiving information about the connection type and availability of the network.

Usage

const connectivityModule = require("tns-core-modules/connectivity");


exports.onNavigatedTo = function(args) {
    const page = args.object;
    let connectionTypeString;

    const type = connectivityModule.getConnectionType();

    switch (type) {
        case connectivityModule.connectionType.none:
            console.log("No connection");
            connectionTypeString = "No Internet connectivity!";
            break;
        case connectivityModule.connectionType.wifi:
            console.log("WiFi connection");
            connectionTypeString = "WiFI connectivity!";
            break;
