I have a .appx installation of Ganache for Windows. I've made a blockchain on it & deployed a smart contract. Now I want to test it on Android Metamask. But Ganache address is only listening to my PC & it's not usable across all devices connected to same network.
How is it possible to make it open to lan & also connect it to Android Metamask?
Thank you
You can change the --server command line argument on ganache:
Server:
--server.ws Enable a websocket server. [boolean] [default: true]
--server.wsBinary Whether or not websockets should response with binary data (ArrayBuffers) or
strings. [choices: "true", "false", "auto"] [default: auto]
--server.rpcEndpoint Defines the endpoint route the HTTP and WebSocket servers will listen on.
[default: "/" (Ethereum), "/rpc/v0" (Filecoin)]
--server.chunkSize For memory and performance reasons ganache may respond with chunked
transfer-encoding over HTTP and fragmented send over WebSockets. This option
allows you to control the approximate size of each chunk.
[number] [default: 1048576]
-h, --server.host, --host, --hostname Hostname to listen on.
deprecated aliases: --host, --hostname
[string] [default: "127.0.0.1"]
-p, --server.port, --port Port to listen on.
deprecated aliases: --port
[number] [default: 8545]
Options:
-?, --help Show help [boolean]
--version Show version number [boolean]
In TCP/IP when you set --server 0.0.0.0 it will listen to all IP addresses, not just localhost. This includes any public IP addresses your computer has.
This is not limited to ganache, but is how TCP/IP protocol and applications work.
