send method

  1. @override
Future<StreamedResponse> send()

Sends this request.

This automatically initializes a new Client and closes that client once the request is complete. If you're planning on making multiple requests to the same server, you should use a single Client for all of those requests.

Implementation

@override
Future<http.StreamedResponse> send() async {
  try {
    var response = await client.send(this);
    var stream = onDone(response.stream, client.close);
    return http.StreamedResponse(
      http.ByteStream(stream),
      response.statusCode,
      contentLength: response.contentLength,
      request: response.request,
      headers: response.headers,
      isRedirect: response.isRedirect,
      persistentConnection: response.persistentConnection,
      reasonPhrase: response.reasonPhrase,
    );
  } catch (_) {
    client.close();
    rethrow;
  }
}
