the http.post() method returns a future that contains a response. |

3. convert the http.Response to a custom dart object |
while it’s easy to make a network request, |
working with a raw Future<http.Response> |
isn’t very convenient. to make your life easier, |
convert the http.Response into a dart object. |
<topic_end> |
<topic_start> |
create an album class |
first, create an album class that contains |
the data from the network request. |
it includes a factory constructor that |
creates an album from JSON. |
converting JSON with pattern matching is only one option. |
for more information, see the full article on |
JSON and serialization. |
<code_start> |
class album { |
final int id; |
final string title; |
const album({required this.id, required this.title}); |
factory Album.fromJson(Map<String, dynamic> json) { |
return switch (json) { |
{ |
'id': int id, |
'title': string title, |
} => |
album( |
id: id, |
title: title, |
), |
_ => throw const FormatException('Failed to load album.'), |
}; |
} |
} |
<code_end> |
<topic_end> |
<topic_start> |
convert the http.Response to an album |
use the following steps to update the createAlbum() |
function to return a Future<Album>: |
<code_start> |
Future<Album> createAlbum(String title) async { |
final response = await http.post( |
uri.parse('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/albums'), |
headers: <string, string>{ |
'content-type': 'application/json; charset=UTF-8', |
}, |
body: jsonEncode(<String, string>{ |
'title': title, |
}), |
); |
if (response.statuscode == 201) { |
// if the server did return a 201 CREATED response, |
// then parse the JSON. |
return Album.fromJson(jsonDecode(response.body) as Map<String, dynamic>); |
} else { |
// if the server did not return a 201 CREATED response, |
// then throw an exception. |
throw Exception('Failed to create album.'); |
} |
} |
<code_end> |
hooray! now you’ve got a function that sends the title to a |
server to create an album. |
<topic_end> |
<topic_start> |
4. get a title from user input |
next, create a TextField to enter a title and |
a ElevatedButton to send data to server. |
also define a TextEditingController to read the |
user input from a TextField. |
when the ElevatedButton is pressed, the _futureAlbum |
is set to the value returned by createAlbum() method. |
<code_start> |
column( |
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center, |
children: <widget>[ |
TextField( |
controller: _controller, |
decoration: const InputDecoration(hintText: 'enter title'), |
), |
ElevatedButton( |
onPressed: () { |
setState(() { |
_futureAlbum = createAlbum(_controller.text); |
}); |
}, |
child: const Text('Create data'), |
), |
], |
) |
<code_end> |
on pressing the create data button, make the network request, |
which sends the data in the TextField to the server |
