toJson method

Map<String, dynamic> toJson({ OptimizeFor optimizeFor = OptimizeFor.put, })

Converts this object into JSON format.

optimizeFor lets the program know what information to include in the JSON data map.

• OptimizeFor.put (the default value) is used when making a data map that is being placed in a PUT request. This only includes data that has changed.
• OptimizeFor.putFull is used when a parent object updates; so, all of the children are required to be present for the PUT request.
• OptimizeFor.post is used when making a data map for a POST request.
• OptimizeFor.dontOptimize is used to get all of the data contained in this object.

Throws InvalidValueException if effect is empty and optimizeFor is not set to OptimizeFor.dontOptimize.

Implementation

Map<String, dynamic> toJson({OptimizeFor optimizeFor = OptimizeFor.put}) {
  // Validate [effect].
  if (!identical(optimizeFor, OptimizeFor.dontOptimize)) {
    if (!Validators.isValidValue(effect, effectValues)) {
      if (!identical(optimizeFor, OptimizeFor.put) ||
          effect != _originalEffect) {
        throw InvalidValueException.withValue(effect, effectValues);
      }
    }
  }

  // PUT
  if (identical(optimizeFor, OptimizeFor.put)) {
    Map<String, dynamic> toReturn = {};

    if (effect != _originalEffect) {
      toReturn[ApiFields.effect] = effect;
    }

    if (duration != _originalDuration) {
      toReturn[ApiFields.duration] = duration;
    }

    return toReturn;
  }

  // PUT FULL
  if (identical(optimizeFor, OptimizeFor.putFull)) {
    return {
      ApiFields.effect: effect,
      ApiFields.duration: duration,
    };
  }

  // DEFAULT
  return {
    ApiFields.effect: effect,
    ApiFields.duration: duration,
    ApiFields.statusValues: statusValues,
    ApiFields.status: status,
    ApiFields.effectValues: effectValues,
  };
}
