post method

Future<Response?> post(String apiPath, { Object? body, bool jsonEncodeBody = true, })

Executes a HTTP POST request for the given apiPath.

If jsonEncodeBody is true, the body will be JSON-encoded before sending.

Implementation

Future<Response?> post(String apiPath, {Object? body, bool jsonEncodeBody = true}) async {
  Logger.log("--------> START OF POST API CALL <--------", type: LogType.api, tag: "DF-API-CLIENT");
  Object? requestBody = body;

  if (jsonEncodeBody && body != null) {
    requestBody = jsonEncode(body);
  }
  Uri apiUri = _generateApiUri(apiPath);
  return _processApiCall(
    apiPath: apiPath,
    httpApiConfig.maxRetryAttempts,
    apiCall: () async {
      return await httpClient
          .post(apiUri, encoding: httpApiConfig.encoding, body: requestBody, headers: httpApiConfig.headers)
          .timeout(
            Duration(seconds: httpApiConfig.timeout),
            onTimeout: () => throw Exception("API Timeout exception, no response from the server for: $apiPath"),
          );
    },
  );
}
