peekQmessages method

Future<List<AzureQMessage>> peekQmessages({ required String qName, int numofmessages = 1, })

The Peek Messages operation retrieves one or more messages from the front of the queue, but does not alter the visibility of the message.

'qName': Name of the queue is mandatory.

numofmessages: Optional. A nonzero integer value that specifies the number of messages to retrieve from the queue, up to a maximum of 32. If fewer are visible, the visible messages are returned. By default, a single message is retrieved from the queue with this operation. This API also retrieves a single message with this mtod by default

Implementation

Future<List<AzureQMessage>> peekQmessages({
  required String qName,
  int numofmessages = 1,
}) async {
  String path = 'https://${config[accountName]}.queue.core.windows.net/$qName/messages?numofmessages=$numofmessages&peekonly=true';
  var request = http.Request('GET', Uri.parse(path));
  _sign(request);
  var res = await request.send();
  var message = await res.stream.bytesToString(); //DEBUG
  if (res.statusCode >= 200 && res.statusCode < 300) {
    List<AzureQMessage> tabList = _extractQMessages(message);
    return tabList;
  }
  throw AzureStorageException(message, res.statusCode, res.headers);
}
