React Native Wifi reborn (WifiManager) issue on iOS (working fine on Android)

[hussnainshafiul]

I am using the react-native-wifi-reborn library to connect to a Wifi Network from the App without going into Wifi Settings. The code is working fine on android but on IOS it gives an error:

" Argument 4 (NSNumber) of WifiManager.connectToProtectedSSID is marked as nullable but React requires that all NSNumber arguments are explicitly marked as nonnull to ensure compatibility with Android. "

`import React from 'react';
import {View, Text, Button, Alert, StyleSheet} from 'react-native';
import WifiManager from 'react-native-wifi-reborn';

const App = () => {

const ssid = '';
const password = '';

const connectToWifi = async () => {
await WifiManager.connectToProtectedSSID(ssid, password, false, true);
console.log(Connected to Wi-Fi: ${ssid});
};

return (

Connect to Local Network


);
};

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flex: 1,
justifyContent: 'center',
alignItems: 'center',
padding: 20,
},
title: {
fontSize: 20,
fontWeight: 'bold',
marginBottom: 20,
},
});

export default App;
`

"react-native-wifi-reborn": "^4.12.1",
"react-native": "0.74.2",

Try to upgrade to v4.13.0, that issue should be fixed already. Duplicate of #379

I am on 4.13.0 and it's still present there. Adding a 5th timeout argument on iOS works for me.

     if (Platform.OS === 'ios') {
        WifiManager.connectToProtectedSSID(ssid, password, false, false, 5000).then(
          () => {
            console.log("Connected successfully!");
          },
          () => {
            console.log("Connection failed!");
          }
        );
      }
      if (Platform.OS === 'android') {
        WifiManager.connectToProtectedSSID(ssid, password, false, false).then(
          () => {
            console.log("Connected successfully!");
          },
          () => {
            console.log("Connection failed!");
          }
        );
      }

The JSDoc conflicts with the docs (README) on this one I believe?

vs.

connectToProtectedSSID(
   SSID: string, 
   password: string, 
   isWEP: boolean, 
   isHidden: boolean, 
   timeout: number
): Promise

from here?

Have I misunderstood something or should I open a PR to update the docs @DavideViolante ?

[DavideViolante]

The readme was wrong due to this PR that introduced 2 very similar methods: #355
I fixed the readme, in short you can use the timeout param only with the connectToProtectedWifiSSID method and only on android, afaik, and the params of the method is an object.
