I want to check if there’s an internet connection. I know it’s been answered on the forum before, but there was no conclusive answer, and I was hoping that Fuse has come up with a way to check that in the meantime?
The solution we usually suggest is to make a fetch request against your backend and see if it’s successful.
Other than that, you might go with a more sophisticated (Foreign code) approach and see if you can extend the fuse-device library to detect the connectivity state.
I had the same problem. This works fine.
<App>
<JavaScript>
var Observable = require("FuseJS/Observable");
var noConnection = Observable();
module.exports = {
noConnection: noConnection
}
fetch('http://example.com', {
}).then(function(response) {
}).then(function(responseObject) {
}).catch(function(error) {
console.log("No internet connection");
noConnection.value = true;
});
</JavaScript>
<WhileTrue Value="{noConnection}">
<StackPanel Alignment="Center">
<Text Value="No internet connection" />
</StackPanel>
</WhileTrue>
</App>
