node-libs-react-native

Node code modules for React Native. This is a fork of node-libs-browser with minor modifications to use packages supported in React Native.

The node core libs for React Native.

Exports a hash [object] of absolute paths to each lib, keyed by lib names. Modules without React Native replacements are null.

Some modules have mocks in the mock directory. These are replacements with minimal functionality.

Outdated versions

punycode

The current punycode implementation uses bestiejs/punycode.js@1.x because bestiejs/punycode.js@2.x requires modern JS engines that understand const and let. It will be removed someday since it has already been deprecated from the node API.

Other Modules

dgram

react-native-udp implements Node's dgram API, but is not included here due to its native implementation and need to use react-native link.

fs

react-native-fs implement's Node's fs API, but is not included here due to its native implementation and need to use react-native link.

react-native-level-fs provides an alternative pure JavaScript implementation, using AsyncStorage as the underlying storage mechanism.

net

react-native-tcp implement's Node's net API, but is not included here due to its native implementation and need to use react-native link.

Globals

React Native does have certain globals that modules may expect (Buffer, process, etc.). The node-libs-react-native/globals module in this package will shim the global environment to add these globals. Simply require (or import) this module in your app before anything else.

require('node-libs-react-native/globals');
