http plus

http_plus #













http_plus is a drop-in replacement for http with HTTP/2
goodies! Under the hood, it wraps http2 to make it compatible with
APIs of http. Additionally, it fallbacks to HTTP/1.1 if H2 is not supported by the server.

CREDIT: This is a fork of http2_client package, which is no longer maintained.

This package is in active development.
Any contribution, idea, criticism or feedback is welcomed.

Using #
The easiest way to use this library is via the top-level functions. They allow you to make
individual HTTP requests with minimal hassle:
import 'package:http_plus/http_plus.dart' as http;

void main() async {
final url = Uri.https('example.com', '/whatsit/create');
final body = {'name': 'doodle', 'color': 'blue'};
// Await http post request
final response = await http.post(url, body: body);
print('Response status: ${response.statusCode}');
print('Response body: ${response.body}');
// Close all open connection - if not required
http.closeAllConnections();
}

For more detail on it check API docs of top-level functions.

Underneath it uses a default client with maxOpenConnection set as 8, this client is re-used
among all top-level functions. If you want to have more fine-control over the client, then you can
define a custom HttpPlusClient:
import 'package:http_plus/http_plus.dart';

void main() async {
final client = HttpPlusClient(
enableHttp2: true,
context: SecurityContext(withTrustedRoots: true),
badCertificateCallback: (cert, host, port) => false,
connectionTimeout: Duration(seconds: 15),
autoUncompress: true,
maintainOpenConnections: true,
maxOpenConnections: -1,
enableLogging: false,
);

final url = Uri.https('example.com', '/whatsit/create');
final body = {'name': 'doodle', 'color': 'blue'};
// Await http post request
final response = await client.post(url, body: body);
print('Response status: ${response.statusCode}');
print('Response body: ${response.body}');
// Close all open connection
client.close();
}
