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<http.StreamedResponse> send(http.BaseRequest request) async {
  if (_closed) throw HttpClientClosedException();

  // Apply default headers if they are not already present
  _defaultHeaders.forEach((key, value) {
    if (request.headers[key] == null) {
      request.headers[key] = _defaultHeaders[key]!;
    }
  });

  _logger.fine('Sending request: $request', null, StackTrace.current);
  _logger.finer('Request headers: ${request.headers}');
  if (request is http.Request) {
    _logger.finer('Request body: ${request.body}');
  }
  return _httpClient.send(request);
}
