How do i read HttpRequest data sent by POST method from client, on the server, in Dart?
I send a message from the client like this:
HttpRequest request = new HttpRequest();
var url = "http://127.0.0.1:8081";
request.open("POST", url, async: false);
String data = 'hello from client';
request.send(data);
On server i am catching the request like this:
HttpServer.bind('127.0.0.1', 8081).then((server) {
server.listen((HttpRequest request) {
//DATA SHOULD BE READ HERE
});
});
But i cant figure out how to actually read the data... There is not data property in HttpRequest nor anything else...
EDIT This is how i get the answer now:
HttpServer.bind('127.0.0.1', 8081).then((server) {
server.listen((HttpRequest request) {
//DATA SHOULD BE READ HERE
print("got it");
print(request.method);
if(request.method == "POST") {
print("got it 2");
List<int> dataBody = new List<int>();
request.listen(dataBody.addAll, onDone: () {
var postData = new String.fromCharCodes(dataBody);
print(postData);
});
}
});
});
But for some reason the request.method is not "POST" but "OPTIONS", and if i change to if(request.method == "OPTIONS")
, then print(postData) will still return nothing...
