params

Description:

params

##Params
Params is a package that provides window.location.search on client and request.requestedUrl.query on server as a Map

install via pub


##On the client



Import the package inside your client like this
import 'package:params/client.dart';
copied to clipboard


At the beginning of your main function call add
await initParams();
copied to clipboard


If the window location is http://127.0.0.1:3030/Rainbow/web/rainbow.html?id=1&language=dart the Standart client params map looks like this
{
id: 1,
language: dart,
_ancestorOrigins: [],
_hash: ,
_host: 127.0.0.1:3030,
_hostname: 127.0.0.1,
_href: http://127.0.0.1:3030/Rainbow/web/rainbow.html?id=1&language=dart,
_origin: http://127.0.0.1:3030,
_pathname: /Rainbow/web/rainbow.html,
_port: 3030,
_protocol: http:,
_search: ?id=1&language=dart
}
copied to clipboard


Now you can access the search values using params['key'] like below
Future main() async{
await initParams();
if(params['id'] != null){
String id = params['id'];
String language = params['language'];
var url = http://127.0.0.1:8090/loadItem?id=$id&language=$language;
var request = HttpRequest.getString(url).then(displayUserAccount);
}else{
content.text="no UserAccount id available";
}
};

##On the server



Import the package inside your server like this
import 'package:params/server.dart';
copied to clipboard


At the beginning of your server.listen function add
await initParams();
copied to clipboard


If a HTTP request is made to http://127.0.0.1:8090/loadItem?id=1&language=dart


the standart server params map looks like this:
{
id: 1,
language: dart,
_query: id=1&language=dart,
_authority: 127.0.0.1:8090,
_host: 127.0.0.1,
_port: 8090,
_path: /loadItem,
_pathSegments: [loadItem],
_queryParameters: {
id: 1,
language: dart
},
_isAbsolute: true,
_hasAuthority: true,
_origin: http://127.0.0.1:8090,
__isPathAbsolute: true,
_hashCode: 277712556
}
copied to clipboard
Now you can access the query values using params['key'] like below
server.listen((HttpRequest request) async {
await initParams(request);
//if request.requestedUrl.query is "id=1&language=dart"
String id = params['id'];
String language = params['language'];
switch (request.method) {
case "GET":
handleGet(request);
break;
case "POST":
handlePost(request);
break;
case "OPTIONS":
handleOptions(request);
break;
default: defaultHandler(request);
}
}
