app_smart_network 1.2.0

A smart Flutter network package with built-in error handling, configurable retry, and multilingual error messages (en/ar).

1.2.0

Features

• Configurable retry — NetworkConfig now accepts a retry policy. RetryPolicy exposes attempts, delays, methods and statuses, all of which were previously hardcoded. Pass retry: null to disable retry app-wide.
• Per-request retry — request(), download() and uploadFile() take a retry: argument that overrides the app-wide policy for a single call. Use RetryPolicy.off to opt one request out, or a policy with a higher attempts to opt one in.
• New public export — RetryPolicy.

Changes

• Retry defaults are unchanged: three retries on idempotent methods with a 1 s / 2 s / 3 s backoff. Code that does not mention retry behaves exactly as it did in 1.1.0.

Notes

• RetryPolicy.delays and RetryPolicy.methods are read from the app-wide policy only. Backoff is fixed when the client is built and cannot vary per request; the method allowlist guards calls that did not supply a policy, so a policy attached to a request bypasses it — that is what makes retry: RetryPolicy(attempts: 5) retry a POST.
• attempts is capped at RetryPolicy.maxAttempts (10), asserted at construction.

1.1.0

Features

• Custom interceptors — NetworkConfig now accepts an interceptors list. They are registered before the built-in retry interceptor, the 401 handler, and the debug logger. A custom interceptor can therefore handle a 401 before onUnauthorized fires, and its onError fires once per genuine attempt on a retried request instead of receiving a duplicate replay of the same terminal failure (which is what happens to interceptors positioned after retry).
• New public exports — Interceptor, InterceptorsWrapper, QueuedInterceptor, QueuedInterceptorsWrapper, RequestOptions, RequestInterceptorHandler, ResponseInterceptorHandler, ErrorInterceptorHandler, DioException, DioExceptionType and ResponseType are re-exported, so writing most interceptors no longer requires a direct dio dependency.

Changes

• The debug logger interceptor moved to the end of the interceptor chain. Debug output now reflects the final request after every interceptor has run. Debug builds only — no effect on release builds.

1.0.5

Bug fixes

• ErrorHandler — DioExceptionType.transformTimeout now returns a proper localized message (TransformTimeout) with status 408, instead of leaking the raw 'transformTimeout' key as the user-facing message.

Maintenance

• equatable dependency removed from pubspec.yaml. It was left behind after the Failure classes were deleted in 1.0.3 and is no longer used.
• Removed the unused ConnectionError locale key (both en and ar); connectionError maps to NoInternetConnection, so the key was dead.

---

1.0.4

Bug fixes

• ErrorHandler now maps DioExceptionType.connectionError to the NoInternetConnection error type, so connection failures surface the correct localized "no internet connection" message instead of a generic error.

Maintenance

• Dependencies upgraded (dart pub upgrade).

1.0.3

Breaking changes

• ServerFailure and CacheFailure removed — failures.dart and its public exports have been deleted. The Failure abstraction was out of scope for a network package; it leaked domain-layer concerns into the library and forced an unnecessary equatable dependency on consumers.

  • Migration: catch ApiException directly in your repository layer, or define your own Failure types and map from ApiException there.

    // before
    } on ApiException catch (e) {
      return Left(ServerFailure.fromException(e));
    }
    
    // after – option A: catch ApiException directly
    } on ApiException catch (e) {
      return Left(MyServerFailure(e.message, e.statusCode));
    }
    

• equatable dependency removed — the package no longer depends on equatable. Remove it from your own pubspec.yaml if you were relying on the transitive export.

---

1.0.2

Bug fixes

• ErrorHandler.handleError now passes an ApiException through unchanged instead of re-wrapping it as a generic 'UnexpectedError' (status 0). This prevented the real error type, status code, and message from reaching callers whenever an ApiException entered the catch block (e.g. thrown by a custom interceptor).
• RequestService.execute — ensureConnected(), withMobileTimeouts(), and resolveUrl() are now inside the single try/catch block, so every error type (connectivity, timeout, bad response, certificate, cancel) flows through ErrorHandler via one consistent code path.

---

1.0.1

Bug fixes

• ApiService.instance now throws a StateError instead of silently creating a broken client when initialize() has not been called yet.
• ApiService.isInitialized getter added — use it to safely check whether initialize() has been called before accessing instance.
• withMobileTimeouts no longer discards user-supplied Options fields. It now mutates the existing object in-place, only setting receiveTimeout when the caller has not already provided one.
• removeAppLocale() now restores the locale that was active at initialize() time (from NetworkConfig.defaultHeaders['Accept-Language']) instead of always falling back to 'en'.
• NetworkLocale.clearCustomTranslations([locale]) added — removes custom translations for a specific locale, or for all locales when called without an argument.

---

1.0.0

Initial stable release.

Features

• ApiService singleton with initialize(NetworkConfig) entry point
• NetworkConfig — configure base URL, timeouts, default headers, SSL, and unauthorized callback
• HttpMethod enum — get, post, put, patch, delete
• RequestService — unified HTTP request execution with connectivity guard and mobile timeout extension
• DownloadRequestService — file download with progress callback
• UploadRequestService — multipart file upload with extra fields and progress callback
• NetworkLocale — locale-aware error messages; built-in English and Arabic translations covering all standard HTTP status codes and network error types; extensible via addTranslations()
• setAppLocale(locale) — sets Accept-Language header and switches error-message locale in one call
• ErrorHandler — converts DioException to ApiException with translated messages
• ApiException — rich exception with statusCode, apiErrorCode, errorCategory, hasApiErrorCode(), and getResponseField()
• ServerFailure / CacheFailure — domain-layer Failure wrappers (Equatable)
• Automatic retry on idempotent methods (GET, PUT, DELETE) with exponential back-off (3 retries: 1 s, 2 s, 3 s)
• Connectivity check before every request with a single 600 ms retry for transient states
• Background JSON decoding via compute isolate
• Debug request/response logging via PrettyDioLogger (debug builds only)
• Per-request baseUrl override, cancel token, query parameters, and send/receive progress callbacks
• example/ app demonstrating all features against JSONPlaceholder API
