🐫 rakuda (ラクだ！) #
rakuda is a quick and dirty HTTP API client factory for Dart.
The generated API client binary can be easily distributed to your collegue :)
Overview #
Write your own client,
// petstore.dart

import 'package:rakuda/rakuda.dart';

void main(List<String> args) async {
await createJSONClient(
args,
baseURL: 'https://petstore.swagger.io/v2',
);
}

and compile it,
$ dart compile exe petstore.dart -o petstore
copied to clipboard
then enjoy!
$ ./petstore GET /pet/2
{"id":2,"category":{"id":7,"name":"drake"},"name":"shrimp","photoUrls":["string"],"tags":[{"id":0,"name":"string"}],"status":"sold"}

$ echo '{"id": 2, "name": "xx"}' | ./petstore PUT /pet
{"id":2,"name":"xx","photoUrls":[],"tags":[]}

Features #
Create client #
await createJSONClient(
args,
baseURL: 'https://petstore.swagger.io/v2',
interceptors: [], // [] by default.
printResponse: true, // automarically print the response body. true by default.
);

createJSONClient just add 2 headers: Accept: application/json and Content-Type: application/json.
If you want to create more detailed client, use buildRequestFromArgs and RequestContext instead.
final request = await buildRequestFromArgs(arguments);
final context = RequestContext(
baseURL: 'https://petstore.swagger.io/v2',
interceptors: [],
);
final response = await context.executeRequest(request);
copied to clipboard
Interceptor #
Authentication process or logging can be implemented with Interceptor.
Future<Response> logging(PerformRequest performRequest, Request request) async {
print(">> ${request.method} ${request.path}");
final response = await performRequest(request);
print(">> HTTP ${response.status}");
final body = response.body;
if (body != null) {
print(body);
}
return response;
}

void main(List<String> args) async {
await createJSONClient(
args,
baseURL: 'https://petstore.swagger.io/v2',
interceptors: [logging],
printResponse: false,
);
}

$ ./petstore GET /pet/3
>> GET /pet/3
>> HTTP 200
{"id":3,"category":{"id":0,"name":"string"},"name":"juanalberto","photoUrls":["string"],"tags":[{"id":0,"name":"carros"}],"status":"pending"}

For more complex implementation, refer the example of androidmanagement-v1 client: https://github.com/YusukeIwaki/rakuda-androidamanagement-api/blob/main/bin/androidmanagement.dart
Usage of the generated client #
rakuda is strongly inpired by HTTPie and provides user-friendly CLI argument parser.
$ ./petstore GET /pet/2
$ ./github GET /search/repositories q=rakuda
$ ./myservice GET /me Authorization:Bearer $ACCESS_TOKEN
copied to clipboard
Note that no " is required in Authorization:Bearer $ACCESS_TOKEN. rakuda automatically detects the end of the header value even with space.
Send body from stdin #
$ echo '{"name": "YusukeIwaki"}' | ./myservice POST /users
copied to clipboard
Send body from file #
Use @body=path/to/file.
# Get data
$ ./myservice GET /users/3 > YusukeIwaki.json

# Edit it
$ vi YusukeIwaki.json

# Update with it!
$ ./myservice PUT /users/3 @body=YusukeIwaki.json
copied to clipboard
This works as well as $ cat YusukeIwaki.json | ./myservice PUT /users/3.
Specify query parameter #
Just list name=value.
$ ./github GET /search/repositories q=rakuda dart sort=stars
copied to clipboard
Note that rakuda automatically detects the end of the value even with space. The value of the 'q' parameter above is 'rakuda dart'.
Specify additional headers #
Just list name:value.
$ ./myservice GET /me Authorization:Bearer my-token-value
copied to clipboard
Note that rakuda automatically detects the end of the header value even with space. The value of the authorization header above is 'Bearer my-token-value'.
