1. package
import 'package:http/http.dart' as http;
2. Send Data to the Server:
Future createAlbum(String title) async {
final http.Response response = await http.post(
Uri.parse('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/albums'),
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json; charset=UTF-8',
},
body: jsonEncode({
'title': title,
}),
);
3. Converting the Response:
class Album {
final int id;
final String title;
Album({required this.id, required this.title});
factory Album.fromJson(Map json) {
return Album(
id: json['id'],
title: json['title'],
);
}
}
4. Convert http.Response to an Album:
Future createAlbum(String title) async {
final http.Response response = await http.post(
'https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/albums',
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json; charset=UTF-8',
},
body: jsonEncode({
'title': title,
}),
);
// Dispatch action depending upon
// the server response
if (response.statusCode == 201) {
return Album.fromJson(json.decode(response.body));
} else {
throw Exception('Album loading failed!');
}
}
