send method

  1. @override
Future<StreamedResponse> send(
  1. BaseRequest request
)

Sends an HTTP request and asynchronously returns the response.

Implementers should call BaseRequest.finalize to get the body of the request as a ByteStream. They shouldn't make any assumptions about the state of the stream; it could have data written to it asynchronously at a later point, or it could already be closed when it's returned. Any internal HTTP errors should be wrapped as ClientExceptions.

Implementation

@override
Future<StreamedResponse> send(BaseRequest request) async {

  final cookies = await cookieJar.loadForRequest(request.url);
  _removeExpiredCookies(cookies);

  String cookie = _getCookies(cookies);
  if (cookie.isNotEmpty) {
    request.headers[HttpHeaders.cookieHeader] = cookie;
  }

  final response = await (requestTimeout == null ? _inner.send(request) : _inner.send(request).timeout(requestTimeout!));

  final String? cookieHeader = response.headers[HttpHeaders.setCookieHeader];
  if(response.request != null  && response.request?.url != null && cookieHeader != null){
    _saveCookies(response.request!.url, cookieHeader);
  }

  return response;
}
