simple_webdav_client 0.2.0

A Dart WebDAV client with full RFC 4918 support, including file operations, property management, and locking (LOCK/UNLOCK). Ideal for these needing complete WebDAV functionality.

Simple WebDAV Client

simple_webdav_client is a Dart WebDAV client with full RFC 4918 support, including file operations (PUT/GET/CREATE/DELETE/MKCOL/MOVE/COPY), property management (PROPFIND/PROPUPDATE), and locking (LOCK/UNLOCK). Ideal for these needing complete WebDAV functionality.

Client's API invocation style is similar to HttpClient and works more easily with async programming. refer to here for more exmaples.

Features

Following methods have been implemented:

• ✅ PROPFIND
• ✅ PROPPATCH
• ✅ MKCOL
• ✅ GET
• ✅ HEAD
• ✅ POST
• ✅ DELETE
• ✅ PUT
• ✅ COPY
• ✅ MOVE
• ✅ LOCK
• ✅ UNLOCK

Propfind

Used to retrieve properties defined on the resource identified by the Request-URI. see RFC4918#9.1 for more information.

You can make a direct request or use the dispatcher's API to make a request (following related sections will not be repeated).

// openUrl
client.openUrl(
    method: WebDavMethod.propfind,
    url: url,
    // Use [PropfindPropRequestParam] to specify the properties to be requested,
    // [PropfindAllRequestParam] to retrieve as many live properties as possible,
    // and [PropfindNameRequestParam] to retrieve all property names.
    param: PropfindPropRequestParam(...),
);
// api
client.dispatch(url).findProps(...);
client.dispatch(url).findAllProps(...);
client.dispatch(url).findPropNames(...);

Proppatch

Used to set and/or remove properties defined on the resource identified by the request-URI. see RFC4918#9.2 for more information.

// openUrl
client.openUrl(
    method: WebDavMethod.propfind,
    url: url,
    param: ProppatchRequestParam(...),
);
// api
client.dispatch(url).updateProps(...);

Mkcol/Put

Creates new (collection) resource at the location specified by the Request-URI. see RFC4918#9.3 - MKCOL and RFC4918#9.7 - PUT for more information.

// openUrl
client.openUrl(
    method: WebDavMethod.propfind,
    url: url,
    // mkcol: MkcolRequestParam
    // put: PutRequestParam
    param: MkcolRequestParam(...),
);
// api
client.dispatch(url).create(...);
client.dispatch(url).createDir(...);

Get/Head/Post

Same as the HTTP methods defined in RFC7231.

// openUrl
client.openUrl(
    method: WebDavMethod.propfind,
    url: url,
    // get: GetRequestParam
    // head: HeadRequestParam
    // post: PostRequestParam
    param: GetRequestParam(...),
);
// api: get
client.dispatch(url).get(...);

Delete

Deletes resource identified by the Request-URI. see RFC4918#9.6 for more information.

// openUrl
client.openUrl(
    method: WebDavMethod.propfind,
    url: url,
    param: DeleteRequestParam(...),
);
// api
client.dispatch(url).delete(...);
client.dispatch(url).deleteDir(...);

Copy

Create a copy of the source resource. see RFC4918#9.8 for more information.

// openUrl
client.openUrl(
    method: WebDavMethod.propfind,
    url: url,
    param: CopyRequestParam(...),
);
// api
client.dispatch(url).copy(...);
client.dispatch(url).copyDir(...);

Move

Move a resource to a new location. see RFC4918#9.9 for more information.

// openUrl
client.openUrl(
    method: WebDavMethod.propfind,
    url: url,
    param: MoveRequestParam(...),
);
// api
client.dispatch(url).move(...);
client.dispatch(url).moveDir(...);

Lock

Used to Request lock on a resource. see RFC4918#9.10 for more information.

// openUrl
client.openUrl(
    method: WebDavMethod.propfind,
    url: url,
    param: LockRequestParam(...),
);
// api
client.dispatch(url).createLock(...);
client.dispatch(url).createDirLock(...);
client.dispatch(url).renewLock(...);

Unlock

Removes the lock identified by the token in Lock-Token. see RFC4918#9.11 for more information.

// openUrl
client.openUrl(
    method: WebDavMethod.propfind,
    url: url,
    param: UnlockRequestParam(...),
);
// api
client.dispatch(url).unlock(...);

Usage

Check test cases in dir:intergration_test/methods_test and example/main.dart for more examples.

1. Example - full request

WebDavClient.std().dispatch(newFilePath)
    .findAllProps(includes: [PropfindRequestProp('author', 'CUSTOM:')])
    .then((request) => request.close())
    .then((response) => response.parse())
    .then((result) => print(result?.toDebugString()));

2. Example - request with custom parser

BaseRespResultParser generateParser() {
  final propParsers = Map.of(kStdPropParserManager);
  propParsers[(name: "author", ns: "CUSTOM:")] = const StringPropParser();

  final propstatParser = BasePropstatElementParser(
      parserManger: WebDavResposneDataParserManger(parsers: propParsers),
      statusParser: const BaseHttpStatusElementParser(),
      errorParser: const BaseErrorElementParser());
  final responseParser = BaseResponseElementParser(
      hrefParser: const BaseHrefElementParser(),
      statusParser: const BaseHttpStatusElementParser(),
      propstatParser: propstatParser,
      errorParser: const BaseErrorElementParser(),
      locationParser: const BaseHrefElementParser());
  final multistatParser =
      BaseMultistatusElementParser(responseParser: responseParser);

  final parsers = Map.of(kStdElementParserManager);
  parsers[(name: WebDavElementNames.multistatus, ns: kDavNamespaceUrlStr)] =
      multistatParser;

  return BaseRespResultParser(
      singleResDecoder: kStdResponseResultParser.singleResDecoder,
      multiResDecoder: BaseRespMultiResultParser(
          parserManger: WebDavResposneDataParserManger(parsers: parsers)));
}

final parser = generateParser();

// openUrl
client.openUrl(
    method: WebDavMethod.propfind,
    url: url,
    param: ...,
    responseResultParser: parser
);
// dispatch
WebDavClient.std().dispatch(newFilePath, responseResultParser: parser);
