[Android] WebSocket support

[satya164]

It would be cool to have WebSockets implemented on Android too.

I've implemented a basic working sample with Native Module, but not sure how to contribute to the code to React Native. Any guidance will be appreciated.

Okay, I sent a pull request, but I have no idea how to write tests. Could you point me to some docs?

What's the status of this? Is it possible to use this at least for dev?

@Tjorriemorrie Will be merging this today.

Took longer than expected but it's finally in!

Hi guys. I am trying to connect react native on android with meteor using this ddp client https://github.com/hharnisc/node-ddp-client.
I am getting an error (Cannot read property 'connect' of undefined) at Websocket.js:35:0 (connectToSocketImpl):
RCTWebSocketModule.connect(url, this._socketId);
I am using the react native master branch at 9f1dab6

Am I doing something wrong or should this thing be working?
Thanks

@chemuto Are you sure that both Java and JavaScript code are in sync?

[chemuto]

@satya164 Thanks for your answer. How can I configure/check that?

I get a similar error trying websocket after installing react-native npm module directly from github: [TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating 'RCTWebSocketModule.connect')]
