How To deal with Response after post request dart httpClient - flutter

Question

So I was having issues with flutter http package when it came to making a post request so I used dart HttpClient. I made a post request according to what was described somewhere but I am having issues getting response. Here is my code
Future<HttpClientResponse> submit() async {
print('start');
Map<String, dynamic> data = { 'title' : 'My first post' };
String jsonString = json.encode(data); // encode map to json
String paramName = 'param'; // give the post param a name
String formBody = paramName + '=' + Uri.encodeQueryComponent(jsonString);
List<int> bodyBytes = utf8.encode(formBody); // utf8 encode
HttpClientRequest request =
await HttpClient().postUrl(Uri.parse('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts'));
// it's polite to send the body length to the server
request.headers.set('Content-Length', bodyBytes.length.toString());
request.headers.set('Content-Type', 'application/json');
request.add(bodyBytes);
print('done');
return await (request.close());
}
How do I get the response from this request?

Answer 1

HttpClientResponse response = await request.close();
response.transform(utf8.decoder).listen((contents) {
print(data); // <- response content is here
});
This will return HttpCLientResponse, more info https://api.dartlang.org/stable/2.6.1/dart-io/HttpClient-class.html

Answer 2

I have found this from the docs
new HttpClient().get('localhost', 80, '/file.txt')
.then((HttpClientRequest request) => request.close())
.then((HttpClientResponse response) {
response.transform(utf8.decoder).listen((contents) {
// handle data
});
});
Or Use http library
I have create a common method which can handle all get Request,
Future<String> getRequest([var endpoints, var queryParameters]) async {
var uri = Uri.https(NetworkUrl.BASE_URL_1, endpoints, queryParameters);
uri.replace(queryParameters: queryParameters);
var response =
await http.get(Uri.encodeFull(uri.toString()));
//Retrun reponse here
if (response.statusCode == 200) return response.body;
}
To get a response from the above method,
Future<String> deletePostApi() async {
await NetworkRepository()
.getRequest(NetworkUrl.deletePost + '${widget.mFeedData.post_id}')
.then((value) {// <=value is json respone
var dataConvertedToJSON = json.decode(value);
print("checkEmailResp" + dataConvertedToJSON.toString());
});
}
