How to Check Network Connection at Every Second in Ionic App

introduction

This article applies to fellow Ionic app developers who are using the Cordova network plugin to check Internet connectivity.

I am going to explain a network-related problem I faced during the development of the Ionic app using MS Visual Studio and Mac OS.

I hope this will help the Ionic app development community.

Problem

I am working in Ionic (using Visual Studio Tools for Apache Cordova) in my mobile application, especially when I have more than 15 pages.

Thus, I need to check whether internet connectivity is available or not for every action.

But I can’t find any solution that globally checks the Connectivity of the Internet.

Solution

For the above Problem.

I have to Create one factory service for the start clock to execute my function.

It is for checking Internet connectivity after every time interval. Which I have saved in the start clock.

  1. First of all, Create factory services for the call network function after every time interval set by a user.
    Create factory services
  2. Create a Calling function in an app.js file after Ionic Platform Ready. Thus, It checks Internet connectivity after every time interval that is set by a user.
