impak_retro 2.1.1

ImpakRetro is a Dart library built on Dio, offering a type-safe, configurable, and user-friendly interface for handling HTTP requests and interacting with APIs.

Changelog

2.1.1 - 2026-05-24

Fixed

• init(useLogger: false) on ImpakRetro.instance: removes any logger previously registered by init instead of leaving it active; the singleton no longer enables logging until you opt in.
• Repeated init with logging enabled: replaces the existing logger instead of stacking multiple PrettyDioLogger interceptors.

2.1.0 - 2026-05-24

Added

• Client lifecycle interceptors: ImpakRetroClientInterceptor and ImpakRetroClientInterceptorCallbacks for pre-request (beforeRequest), post-response (afterResponse), and post-error (afterError) hooks (token checks, refresh flows, global 401 handling, etc.).
• clientInterceptors on ImpakRetro / init: register, replace, or clear client interceptors (inserted before the optional HTTP logger).
• Dio type re-exports: lib/export/impak_http.dart exported from package:impak_retro/impak.dart so apps can implement interceptors without a direct dio dependency.

Notes

• See README Client lifecycle interceptors for usage and the example app for ImpakRetroClientInterceptorCallbacks.

2.0.2 - 2025-07-14

Added

• HTTP Request Handling:

  • Ability to make HTTP requests (GET, POST, etc.) with or without authentication.
  • Support for file uploads with progress tracking.
  • Configurable timeout settings with TimeUnit.

  • Methods to set and use custom or default tokens per request.

• Error Handling:

  • Comprehensive exception handling with detailed error messages.
  • Specific error types for mapping, timeout, connection, and server errors.

• Type-Safe Responses:

  • typeSafeCall and typeSafeFormDataCall methods for parsing API responses into specific data models.

• Raw Response Handling:

• Includes call and formDataCall methods for making HTTP requests and directly retrieving raw responses without additional transformations.

• Form Data Support:

• Customizability:

  • Ability to pass custom headers, query parameters, and body data for requests.
  • Configurable base URL for each request.

• Extensibility:

  • Flexible initialization with optional configuration for base URL, timeout, and logging.

Notes

• Initial release with core HTTP request capabilities, error handling, and type safety.
