makeApiRequest method

Future<Response> makeApiRequest(String endpoint, Map<String, dynamic> body, String method)

Helper method to make API requests to the server.

endpoint: The URL of the API endpoint. body: The request payload in the form of a Map. method: The HTTP method for the request (e.g., 'POST', 'GET', etc.).

This method encrypts the request payload using the EncryptionService, prepares the headers and body, and sends the request. It returns the response from the server as an http.Response.

Implementation

Future<http.Response> makeApiRequest(
  String endpoint,
  Map<String, dynamic> body,
  String method,
) async {
  // Convert the request body into a JSON string
  String bodyString = json.encode(body);

  // Encrypt the JSON string payload
  Uint8List encryptedBody = encryptionService.encryptPayload(bodyString);
  String encryptedBase64 = base64.encode(encryptedBody);

  // Define the request headers including the API key
  var headers = {
    'api-key': apiKey,
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
  };

  // Create an HTTP request object using the specified method and endpoint
  var request = http.Request(method, Uri.parse(endpoint));
  request.headers.addAll(headers);

  // Add the encrypted body to the request as a JSON object
  request.body = json.encode({"data": encryptedBase64});

  // Send the request and return the response
  return await http.Client().send(request).then((response) async {
    return await http.Response.fromStream(response);
  });
