Agent.query in react native not fetching properly

Developers

So the first step obviously is to apply the polyfill globally using:

import {polyfill as polyfillFetch} from 'react-native-polyfill-globals/src/fetch'
polyfillFetch();

I put this in a shim.js that is imported by the top-level index.js.

The second step is to patch @dfinity/agent to replace this line with:

this._fetch('' + new URL(`/api/v2/canister/${ecid.toText()}/call`, this._host), Object.assign(Object.assign({reactNative: {textStreaming: true}}, transformedRequest.request), { body })),

Note that {reactNative: {textStreaming: true}} was added.

The last step is to patch react-native-fetch-api and replace the “blob” in this line with “base64”.

Let me know if this works.
