http_debug 1.0.2

Http inspector / Debugging tool

The http_debug library simplifies debugging HTTP requests and responses in Flutter applications. It provides a floating debug button HttpDebugFloatingButton that overlays your app's UI, offering real-time access to HTTP traffic. With this tool, you can inspect and analyze requests, headers, payloads, and responses directly within your app, without relying on external tools like Postman or browser developer tools.

dependencies:
  http_debug: ^1.0.2

Initialize

In the MaterialApp widget, use the builder parameter to wrap your app's widget tree with the HttpDebugFloatingButton, ensuring it is accessible globally throughout your app.

void main() {
  runApp(const MyApp());
}

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  const MyApp({super.key});

  // This widget is the root of your application.
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {

    return MaterialApp(
        routes: {
          '/': (context) => HomePage(), // Default route
          '/sendRequest': (context) => SendRequestDetailPage(),
        },
        initialRoute: '/', // Set the initial route
        theme: ThemeData(
          colorScheme: ColorScheme.fromSeed(seedColor: Colors.deepPurple),
        ),
        debugShowCheckedModeBanner: false,
        builder: (context, child) {
          return Stack(
            children: [
              child!,
              HttpDebugFloatingButton(),
            ],
          );
        }
    );
  }
}

Dio Users

1. Add interceptor class DioInterceptor for dio client.

Dio get dioClient{
  final client = Dio()..interceptors.add(
    DioInterceptor(),
  );
  return client;
}

/// Use dio regularly
dio.get(
  'https://api.ipify.og?format=json',
  options: Options(headers: {"abc": "abc"}),
);

Http Users

1. Initialize Client to client class, then use httpClient on the InterceptedHttpClient constructor

HttpInterceptor get httpClient {
  InterceptedHttpClient(
    httpsDebugController: HttpsDebug.instance,
    httpClient: http.Client(),
  );
}

/// Use http client regularly
await client.get(
  Uri.parse('https://api.ipify.org?format=json'),
  headers: {"abc": "abc"},
);
