🔥Network Requests with playx_network: #
playx_network is a Wrapper around Dio that can perform api request with better error handling and easily get the result of any api request.
We can use PlayxNetworkClient to perform GET, POST, PUT,, and DELETE HTTP methods for retrieving from and sending data to a server.
To use it we need to :


Setup PlayxNetworkClient an configure it based on your needs. You should create only one instance of this network client to be used for the app depending on your use case.
final PlayxNetworkClient _client = PlayxNetworkClient(
//you can customize your dio options like base URL, connection time out.
dio: Dio(
BaseOptions(
baseUrl: _baseUrl,
connectTimeout: const Duration(seconds: 20),
senTimeout: const Duration(seconds: 20),
),
),
customHeaders: () async => {
'authorization': 'Bearer token'
},
errorMapper: (json) {
if (json.containsKey('message')) {
return json['message'] as String? ;
}
return null;
},
);

Now we can use the client to perform any GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE HTTP method.
For example we will perfrom a GET request that gets list of cats using this api : https://api.thecatapi.com/v1/images/search?limit=10


First create a model for the data returned from the api. It should contain a from json function that takes dynamic json and converts it to the model.
class Cat {
String? id;
String? url;
num? width;
num? height;

Cat({
this.id,
this.url,
this.width,
this.height,});

Cat.fromJson(dynamic json) {
id = json['id'];
url = json['url'];
width = json['width'];
height = json['height'];
}
copied to clipboard


Perform the GET request :
//gets list f cats by getting cats endpoint.
final result = await _client.getList(catsEndpoint,
// pass your own queries.
query: {
'limit': '10',
},
// Pass the from json function that was created in the cat model.
fromJson: Cat.fromJson);

copied to clipboard


Handle The request result :
result.when(success: (cats) {
//Handles success here as it returns list of cats.
}, error: (error) {
//handle error here and display the error message.
print("Error is : ${error.message}");
});

Just like that you can perform any GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE HTTP method and return it's result whether success or failure with better error handling.
