rocket_client 0.0.1

Simple http package for RocketModel or get json data.

Rocket Client

Rocket Client is a Dart package that provides a simple and easy-to-use HTTP client. It is built on top of the http package and provides additional features such as handling Rocket models, inspecting raw response data, and handling exceptions.

Usage

Create an instance of the RocketClient class and use its request method to send HTTP requests:

final rocket = RocketClient(url: 'https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com');

final response = await rocket.request('posts', method: HttpMethods.get);

print(response);

You can also provide a RocketModel to the request method to automatically handle the response data:

final rocket = RocketClient(url: 'https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com');

final post = Post();

await rocket.request('posts/1', model: post, method: HttpMethods.get);

print(post.toJson());

The sendFile method can be used to send files to the server:

final rocket = RocketClient(url: 'https://example.com');

final response = await rocket.sendFile('upload', files: {'file': '/path/to/my/file.jpg'});

print(response);
