BaseRequest class

The base class for HTTP requests.

Subclasses of BaseRequest can be constructed manually and passed to BaseClient.send, which allows the user to provide fine-grained control over the request properties. However, usually it's easier to use convenience methods like get or BaseClient.get.

read / write
headers → Map<String, String>

toString() → String
Returns a string representation of this object.
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic
