When I do a fetch request to ("http://localhost:5000/api") I get this error:
[TypeError: Network request failed: The resource could not be loaded because the App Transport Security policy requires the use of a secure connection.]
This is my code I use for trying to fetch the data but I get that error all the time. What is the best way to fix this or is it any other solution to use for fetching and posting data in Nativescript?
methods: {
getData() {
fetch("http://localhost:5000/api")
.then((res) => {
console.log(res)
}).catch((err) => {
console.log(err)
});
},
Http is not enabled by default in iOS and Android (v9.0 and above).
To enable Http requests on iOS, you will have to add the following keys to your App_Resources/iOS/info.plist
<key>NSAppTransportSecurity</key>
<dict>
<key>NSAllowsArbitraryLoads</key>
<true/>
</dict>
On Android, you will have to add android:usesCleartextTraffic="true" to your application tag of your App_Resources/Android/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml
<application android:name="com.tns.NativeScriptApplication"
...
android:usesCleartextTraffic="true">
You may also allow Http communication only on specific domains, refer official iOS / Android docs for more information.
