fetchGitHubReleaseData static method

Future<Map<String, dynamic>?> fetchGitHubReleaseData(String url, { String? githubToken, })

Fetches GitHub release data from url and returns the parsed JSON map.

If githubToken is provided, it is sent as a Bearer token in the Authorization header (used to raise GitHub API rate limits). Returns null on any HTTP error or parse failure.

Implementation

static Future<Map<String, dynamic>?> fetchGitHubReleaseData(
  String url, {
  String? githubToken,
}) async {
  final client = HttpClient();
  try {
    final request = await client.getUrl(Uri.parse(url));
    request.headers.set('User-Agent', 'inno_bundle');
    request.headers.set('Accept', 'application/json');
    if (githubToken != null && githubToken.isNotEmpty) {
      request.headers.set('Authorization', 'Bearer $githubToken');
    }
    final response = await request.close();
    final body = await response.transform(utf8.decoder).join();
    if (response.statusCode != 200) return null;
    return jsonDecode(body) as Map<String, dynamic>;
  } catch (_) {
    return null;
  } finally {
    client.close();
  }
}
