I make a http request in my flutter app with a simple url api:
Future<http.Response> getUsers() async {
try {
return await http
.get('https://reqres.in/api/users')
.timeout(const Duration(seconds: 10))
.catchError((e) {
print("=> catchError getUsers $e");
return null;
});
} on SocketException catch (e) {
print("=> catch SocketException getUsers $e");
return null;
} catch (e) {
print("=> catch getUsers $e");
return null;
}
}
And the error message is:
err FormatException: Scheme not starting with alphabetic character (at character 1)
https://reqres.in/api/users
^
I have switched to different channels of the flutter version and I don't know the solution, thanks!
Try using
http.get(Uri.parse('https://reqres.in/api/users'))

the request is just waiting and not resulting an error, i want an error to be produced when there is no internet but it's just waiting forever
i tried
sendTimeout: 600000,
receiveTimeout: 600000,
but same result

You need to wrap your logic inside try/catch block.
try {
var response = await _dio.getUri(
Uri.parse(uri));
if (response.statusCode == 200) {
return response.data;
} else {
throw response;
}
} on SocketException catch (e) {
throw SocketException(e.toString());
} on FormatException catch (_) {
throw FormatException("Unable to process the data");
} catch (e) {
throw e;
}
I have an exception that gets thrown multiple times before getting handled in my code, (the same error object gets thrown 4 times in the tree).
During each throw , flutter appends the word Exception: to my error object, so the final shape of the message is:
Exception: Exception: Exception: Exception: SocketException: OS Error: Connection refused, errno = 111, address = 10.12.7.15, port = 39682
And this is an example of how I handle exceptions:
getSomeData () async {
try {
await myFunction3();
} catch (e) {
throw Exception(e);
}
}
/*****************************************/
Future<void> myFunction3 () async {
try {
await myFunction2();
} catch (e) {
throw Exception(e);
}
}
/*****************************************/
Future<void> myFunction2 () async {
try {
await myFunction1();
} catch (e) {
throw Exception(e);
}
}
/*****************************************/
Future<void> myFunction1() async {
try {
await dio.get(/*some parameters*/);
}
on DioError catch (e) {
throw Exception(e.error);
}
catch (e) {
throw Exception(e);
}
}
I want to throw the Exception() in a right way so the repetition of word Exception: doesn't appear anymore in my error string.
Instead of throwing a new exception, you could rethrow the catched one:
Future<void> myFunction1() async {
try {
await dio.get(/*some parameters*/);
}
on DioError catch (e) {
// do something
rethrow;
}
catch (e) {
// do something
rethrow;
}
}

I upgraded Flutter from version 2.0.2 to version 2.2.2 and now the custom exceptions that are thrown from a Future function are not being catch.
For example, I got this Future function, where I call another Future that does a server request and returns back the response or throws a custom exception (ApiException) in case of error:
static Future<bool> signUpCustomerRequest(Map<String, dynamic> params) async {
try {
// Here we call this Future function that will do a request to server API.
dynamic _response = await _provider.signUpCustomer(params);
if (_response != null) {
updateUserData(_response);
return true;
}
return false;
} on ApiException catch(ae) {
// This custom exception is not being catch
ae.printDetails();
rethrow;
} catch(e) {
// This catch is working and the print below shows that e is Instance of 'ApiException'
print("ERROR signUpCustomerRequest: $e");
rethrow;
} finally {
}
}
And this is the Future function that does the request to server and throws the ApiException:
Future<User?> signUpCustomer(Map<String, dynamic> params) async {
// POST request to server
var _response = await _requestPOST(
needsAuth: false,
path: routes["signup_client"],
formData: params,
);
// Here we check the response...
var _rc = _response["rc"];
switch(_rc) {
case 0:
if (_response["data"] != null) {
User user = User.fromJson(_response["data"]["user"]);
return user;
}
return null;
default:
print("here default: $_rc");
// And here we have the throw of the custom exception (ApiException)
throw ApiException(getRCMessage(_rc), _rc);
}
}
Before upgrading to Flutter 2.2.2 the catch of custom exceptions worked perfectly. Did something change on this Flutter version? Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks!
I was able to reproduce your bug with the following code:
class ApiException implements Exception {
void printDetails() {
print("ApiException was caught");
}
}
Future<void> doSomething() async {
await Future.delayed(Duration(seconds: 1));
throw ApiException();
}
void main() async {
try {
await doSomething();
} on ApiException catch (ae) {
ae.printDetails();
} catch (e) {
print("Uncaught error: $e"); // This line is printed
}
}
There's an open issue on the dart sdk, which I think might be related, though I'm not sure: https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/45952.
In any case, I was able to correct the error by returning a Future.error, instead of throwing the error directly:
class ApiException implements Exception {
void printDetails() {
print("ApiException was caught"); // This line is printed
}
}
Future<void> doSomething() async {
await Future.delayed(Duration(seconds: 1));
return Future.error(ApiException());
}
void main() async {
try {
await doSomething();
} on ApiException catch (ae) {
ae.printDetails();
} catch (e) {
print("Uncaught error: $e");
}
}
I check my errors between try blocks. How can I get rid of code repetition by creating an intermediate layer instead of rewriting it within each method?
As seen in the codes, I use try blocks in all operations.
Future<List<Post>> getAll(){
try {
//http get code
}on SocketException {
throw Failure('Message');
}on HttpException {
throw Failure("Http Exception Message");
}on FormatException {
throw Failure("Format Message");
}
}
Future<Post> getPost(){
try {
//http get code
}on SocketException {
throw Failure('Message');
}on HttpException {
throw Failure("Http Exception Message");
}on FormatException {
throw Failure("Format Message");
}
}
I'm new to Flutter & Dart, trying to complete my first app.
I can't catch (with try-catch block) http.get SocketException (which happens when you call API and WiFi turned off)
I tried everything on the internet without luck, I even tried (Dio) package to catch this exception, but no success.
How to reproduce: use bottom code...turn off phone's WiFi...call API...now the app crashes with (SocketException) in your IDE.

here is my simple code (updated)
RaisedButton(
child: Text("Call API"),
onPressed: () async {
try {
http.Response response = await getLoginResponse();
//do something with response
print(response.body);
} catch (e) {
print("Button onPressed Error: " + e.toString());
}
},
)
//---------------------------------------------------------------
Future<http.Response> getLoginResponse() {
return http.get(loginUrl).timeout(Duration(seconds: 10))
.then((response) {
return response;
}, onError: (e) {
print("onError: " + e.toString());
}).catchError((err) {
print("catchError: " + err.toString());
return null;
});
}
You can catch several types of errors and handle each one separately
Example:
import 'dart:io' as Io;
http.Client client = http.Client();
try {
response = await client.get(url).timeout(new Duration(seconds: 10));
} on Io.SocketException catch (_) {
throw Exception('Not connected. Failed to load data');
} on TimeoutException catch (_) {
throw Exception('Not connected. TimeOut Exception');
} catch (e) {
// Default error handling;
}
if you want to get catch in RaisedButton's try-catch block, instead of return null in getLoginInfo() methods, you must return an Exception like this:
Future<List<LoginObject>> getLoginInfo() async {
try {
List<LoginObject> loginObjectList = List<LoginObject>();
http.Response loginResponse =
await http.get(loginUrl).timeout(Duration(seconds: 10));
if (loginResponse.statusCode == 200) {
loginObjectList = loginObjectFromJson(loginResponse.body);
return loginObjectList;
} else {
throw Exception('Authentication Error');
}
} catch (e) {
print("Error: " + e.toString());
return throw Exception('Connection Error');;
}
}
Note: If you want to handle each one of error response, you can create an custom ErrorModelClass and handle error state with it and finally return your ErrorModelClass.
catch (error) {
print(error);
throw error is HttpResponseError ? error : HttpResponseError(0,"error connection");
HttpResponseError is my custom model class.
